A roof that really keeps you covered
Warranties. We insist on them when buying electrical or mechanical goods, and we wouldn’t dream of driving away in a new car without having first received one. So why shouldn’t we demand the same when it comes to our homes, the most significant investment most of us will ever make.
It’s something the team at COLORSTEEL® are passionate about. They’ve spent a considerable amount of time and energy developing a warranty program that’s second-to-none, and they’re constantly working to educate their customers and clients on how to get the most out of their roof.
The first step to ensuring you’re covered by the most robust warranties possible involves choosing the right product for your building environment.
Then you need to be sure your builder has used ‘industry standard’ methods to erect your roof or structure – any shortcuts or missed steps could invalidate your warranty.
Maintaining your investment
Once you’ve picked the ideal materials and had them installed correctly, it becomes a case of maintenance. Fortunately, looking after COLORSTEEL® is pretty simple, especially compared to some building products.
That’s because Mother Nature will do a lot of the work for you. In most instances rainwater is enough to keep your roof clean – although this will depend on a number of things, including the environment you’re in, your proximity to the coast, and the product you’ve selected.
Wall cladding, fascia, gutters and downpipes normally require a little more hands-on maintenance. Consult the Environmental Categories Guide for more information on specific products.
Making sure you're covered
Only genuine COLORSTEEL® – made in Glenbrook by New Zealand Steel – is covered by the COLORSTEEL® warranty program. To ensure you’re covered, ask your builder or roofer for your Certificate of Authenticity upon completion of your project – it’s proof you’ve purchased the ‘real thing’, and that you’re protected by a robust and extensive warranty system.
