Steel Roofing Adelaide 

When it comes to choosing a material for your roof, we understand that the choice can feel a little overwhelming especially with so many roofing materials on the market. At Old Port Roofing, we believe the ultimate roofing material is steel, and that’s why we use it for all of our Adelaide projects.

Here are 8 advantages that come with creating using steel on your Adelaide property:

1. Long Lasting

At Old Port Roofing, we use BlueScope Colorbond steel for all of our steel roofing projects. Colorbond has been created to withstand Australia’s harshest conditions. With minimal maintenance, durability and a life expectancy of over 50 years, a steel roofing system simply can’t be beaten!

4. Great Resale Value For Your Adelaide Home

Potential homebuyers know the advantages of a good quality steel system. So when it comes to selling your home you’ll find that buyers will pay a premium.

5. Fire Safe

Colorbond steel has fire resistant capabilities, meaning that your Colorbond steel roofing will insulate against sparks, preventing any fires spreading to the inside of your home.

6. Strength, Like No Other!

Colorbond steel is one of the strongest materials on the market, and that’s exactly what you want to protect your Adelaide home or business. Not only is it weather and fire resistant, you’ll find that steel roofing will be able to withstand and outlast any other material on the market, all year round!

7. Energy Efficient

Not only will you find that a steel roofing system will save you money because of its minimal maintenance requirements, but steel is also extremely energy efficient.

Saving you hundreds of dollars on Adelaide’s expensive electricity costs!
