Illawarra Colorbond Roof
Installing a Colorbond roof is one of the smartest upgrades you can make to your home. Built for Australia’s climate, Colorbond offers long-term protection with minimal maintenance — it’s fire- resistant, corrosion-resistant, and performs exceptionally well in coastal, urban, and bushland areas. At Sheps Roofing Service, we install Colorbond roofing across Illawarra, helping homeowners and businesses choose the right profile, finish and colour for their needs.
Whether you’re replacing tiles, building a new home or upgrading an old metal roof, our team works with precision to ensure clean lines, secure fittings and strong structural performance. With years of experience handling Colorbond, Stramit and Lysaght materials, we know what works and how to install it properly the first time.

Why Choose Colorbond Roofing?
Colorbond roofing isn’t just about appearance — it’s a complete roofing system designed for energy efficiency, resilience and ease of care. It suits nearly every home style and continues to be one of the most popular materials in Australian roofing for good reason.
- Built For Harsh Conditions: Colorbond is tested against extreme heat, UV, wind and rain, making it ideal for unpredictable weather zones.
- Wide Colour Range: With classic and contemporary tones, Colorbond complements both modern and traditional architecture.
- Low Maintenance Finish: The pre-painted steel coating resists peeling, cracking and fading, and doesn’t need regular painting.
- Thermal Efficiency: Lighter colours reflect heat and can help keep your home cooler in summer, reducing energy use.
- Compatible With Add-ons: It works well with skylights, whirlybirds and solar panel mounting systems without compromising roof integrity.
A Colorbond roof gives you lasting performance and a modern finish — without the high upkeep of traditional materials.
How long does a Colorbond roof last?
A Colorbond roof can last 40 to 70 years when installed correctly and maintained periodically. Its steel base and baked-on paint system make it resistant to corrosion, chipping and fading, especially in coastal and bushfire-prone regions. Occasional cleaning helps maximise its lifespan.
Is Colorbond roofing noisy in the rain?
While older metal roofs were known for loud rain noise, modern Colorbond roofing is typically installed with insulation and sarking, which reduces sound significantly. When properly fitted, a Colorbond roof is not noticeably louder than tiled alternatives during rainfall.
Can I replace a tiled roof with Colorbond?
Yes, Tile-to-Colorbond roof conversions are common. Metal roofing is lighter than tiles, which may reduce structural load. However, the existing roof frame should be inspected to ensure it suits the new installation, and upgrades may be required for proper fitting.
