Colorbond® Roof Replacement in Adelaide
4th GENERATION ROOFING SA
FULLY INSURED AND LICENSED
COMPLETED JOBS
COLORBOND® is a BlueScope’s pre-painted steel that is Australian-made and designed specifically for Australian conditions. It’s not just a roof covering. It’s a complete weather system. Here’s what makes it the standard choice for Adelaide roof replacements.
COLORBOND® with Thermatech® technology reflects up to 70% of solar radiation.
Old concrete tiles sit at 50–60kg per square metre. COLORBOND® steel is around 5kg (10-to-1 weight reduction)
The factory-applied paint finish on COLORBOND® steel is baked on under controlled conditions, so the roof you put on is the roof you have in 20 years.
For Adelaide homes within 200 metres of the ocean install COLORBOND® Ultra engineered for high-salt, high-humidity environments.
With a foil-faced glasswool (Anticon™) blanket installed underneath, the sound goes from a sharp metallic ping to a low, muffled thud.
Choose from 22+ COLORBOND® colours, all with a factory-applied finish that resists UV fading for the life of your warranty.
One point of contact managing your project from start to finish
Completed efficiently with minimal disruption to your home
Every replacement we do covers the whole roof, not just the sheets.
Choose from high-performance finishes like Surfmist, Woodland Grey, Basalt, or Southerly. Check the Colorbond® Steel Visualiser online or inspect roofing sheets at our Lonsdale showroom.
The foil-faced glasswool blanket installed under every sheet reduces heat, stops condensation, and dampens noise in one layer.
Leaking edges and valleys cause water damage and costly repairs. Every ridge, valley, and penetration is sealed with high precision.
Old gutters overflow and damage walls or landscaping. We replace high-flow COLORBOND® gutters and fascia at the same time, perfectly matched to your roof colour.
Solar-powered vents installation to reduce roof cavity temperatures by up to 20°C, lowering cooling costs.
Undersized or rotting battens can compromise the entire roof structure. We inspect all timber battens and replace where necessary (fully included in your quote)

Every person on your roof works directly for us. If something isn’t right, we fix it.
We inspect the site before we quote. Rotted battens, difficult access, awkward penetrations, we find it before we price it, not after.
10-year workmanship. 20-year watertight guarantee. Up to 45 years on BlueScope® materials. SA law requires 7. We give you three times that.
Most roofing companies in SA don’t last a decade. We’ve been here since 1921. If you have a warranty question in 20 years, someone will answer the phone.
Our Lonsdale showroom has 22+ colours in full 1.8 m sheets. Bring a photo of your home and see exactly how each colour will look.
We don’t paint tiles or glaze terracotta. In the Adelaide sun, coatings peel within 3 summers. One recommendation, one reason: COLORBOND® lasts.
We have a century-old reputation built into the streets of Adelaide, from the coastal salt neighbourhoods of Glenelg to the character-rich avenues of Prospect

Most 3-bedroom Adelaide homes: $20,000–$60,000. The range is wide because pitch, access, roof size, and existing material all move the number. A steep roof with no side access costs more to do safely than a simple gable with open ground around it. We give you a fixed price after a site inspection, not a ballpark figure with variations to follow.
Most residential jobs take 3–5 days. We work in sections and never leave an exposed area overnight. If a storm is forecast, we seal stripped sections and pause. Your home stays dry throughout.
Our insulation blanket, included in every installation, significantly reduces rain noise. Most clients say it is quieter than their old tiles, which rattled and pinged as they aged.
Yes. We coordinate with a solar electrician to safely remove and reinstall panels during the job. For tile-to-steel conversions, mounting hardware is replaced; for steel-to-steel, existing hardware is usually reusable.
We work year-round. Spring and autumn are popular due to predictable weather, but we’ve successfully completed jobs in both summer heat and winter storms. Forecasts are monitored closely and the work is planned accordingly.
