Material Options for Metal Roofing Melbourne
Galvanised Steel
Galvanised steel was the standard choice right up until the mid-80s. Since then, it’s been replaced by stronger, more efficient types of steel. These days, the only time we’d use galvanised steel is when it’s needed for compatibility with existing materials.
Zincalume Steel
Zincalume steel, also called “zinc,” is the newer and improved version of traditional galvanised steel. It is highly resilient against corrosion and has a modern, aesthetically pleasing look. Roof Guard installs Zincalume roofing sourced from BlueScope Steel, which carries a 25-year manufacturer’s warranty for long-lasting performance.
Colorbond Steel
COLORBOND steel has been a popular roofing choice for Australians for decades. Designed by BlueScope Steel to withstand Australia’s intense sunlight and temperature extremes, COLORBOND comes in a 22-colour designer palette and features advanced paint technology for a durable, baked-on finish that resists peeling, chipping, and cracking. BlueScope Steel provides a warranty of up to 36 years against corrosion and up to 20 years for the paint system. Roof Guard supplies and installs this premium material to ensure your roof is both stylish and long-lasting.
Metal Roofing Material Compatibility
The first step in any metal roof replacement is making sure the new materials will work with what’s already there. Every building product needs to be checked for compatibility with the surrounding materials — not just where they touch, but also where water flows from one surface to another.
The following guidelines generally avoid material incompatibility:
For zinc-aluminium alloy coated steel, colour-coated steel, and galvanised steel roofs avoid copper, lead, green or treated timber, stainless steel and mortar or concrete.
In addition, galvanised steel roofs should not receive drainage from aluminium or any inert materials, such as plastics, glass, glazed tiles, colour-coated zinc-aluminium alloy.

What Our Clients Say
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of metal roofing do you install?
We work with galvanised steel, Zincalume, and Colorbond roofing. Each has unique benefits, with Colorbond being the most popular for its durability, energy efficiency, and wide range of colours.
Can metal roofs be repaired, or do they always need replacing?
Not always. Minor leaks, loose sheets, and damaged flashing can usually be repaired. Replacement is only needed when the damage is widespread or the roof has reached the end of its lifespan.
How do I know if my metal roof needs repair or replacement?
Warning signs include frequent leaks, rust patches, or visible sagging. If repairs are becoming regular and costly, replacement may be the more practical option.
How long does a metal roof last?
With the right materials and professional installation, a metal roof in Melbourne can last 40–60 years or more, depending on maintenance and environmental factors.
Are metal roof repairs covered by warranty?
Yes. All our repair and replacement services come with a 10-year workmanship and materials guarantee for peace of mind.
Is metal roofing suitable for Melbourne homes?
Absolutely. Metal roofing is lightweight, durable, fire-resistant, and designed to perform well under Melbourne’s changing weather conditions.
