    Interline Roofing Ballarat – Roofing

    Your roof is one of the largest and most stand out aspects of your home so it pays to take the time to carefully consider your needs before making any decisions.  Employing suitably qualified professionals will ensure that your roof is safe, looks great and stands the test of time, no matter what material you choose.

    Roofing Materials

    There are several types of roofing material available.  Your roofing professional will be able to advise you on the most suitable for your home; however, the two most common roof materials are as follows:

    • Steel roofing –

      Types of steel roofs include treated zinc-aluminum, such as Colorbond, and untreated zinc-aluminum.  Steel roofs are very flexible so are great for harsher weather conditions. Backed by Bluescope Lysaght 20 year warranty.

    Insulating your Roof

    When choosing a roof colour, be aware that a lighter colour roof will reflect heat better and therefore keep your home cooler.  Some steel roofs are thermally efficient and your roofing professional will be able to advise you as to what they are.

    Sarking is a reinforced foil material that is laid over the whole area of the roof underneath the roof tiles or other roof material.  Its purpose is to help prevent condensation as well as to provide insulation against the heat, cold and sound.

    Steel roofs can accentuate the sound of rain, so if you aren’t a big fan of rain noise, then it is possible to install an insulation blanket made of foil and glass fibre between the roof frame and the roof material.  Again, this blanket insulates against noise and the weather.

    You can also choose to install insulation after your roof has been completed, whether it is in the form of batts or something else.  Your roofing professional will be able to advise you on which insulation materials are best for your requirements.

    Guttering is an important component of your roof and one that needs to be carefully considered.  There are a variety of materials that are suitable, with the most popular being, Colorbond, Zicalume & Galvanised.  It is also a good idea to get a gutter protection (leaf guard) system that will protect your guttering from debris.  A good system should have a 20-year warranty on materials.

    Roofing Terms

    Some roofing terms that you may be unfamiliar with are flashing and fascia.Flashing refers to the sheets of metal that are placed between joints to stop moisture from coming through.  These joints may be between tiles and a chimney or around the edge of a skylight for example.  A fascia is simply a piece of timber or metal affixed to the eaves, and it is to the fascia that gutters are secured.

    Finally, before erecting a new roof or renovating your existing one, it is always wise to check with your local council and familiarise yourself with their regulations.  For example, some councils will only allow certain materials in certain colours.
