Installing COLORBOND® corrugated iron sheets is designed to be fast and straightforward, whether you’re working on roofing or wall cladding. Thanks to the standard .48 base metal thickness, these sheets offer exceptional strength and stability, making them perfect for a wide range of applications. For best results, always install in accordance with the manufacturer’s guidelines, using fasteners specifically designed for steel supports. Both roofing and walling installations require three fasteners at internal supports to ensure a secure and long-lasting fit.
Take advantage of our custom cut service to order sheet lengths tailored to your project, which helps reduce waste and saves valuable time on site. The robust thickness of these sheets means they’re easy to handle and install, providing peace of mind that your roof or wall cladding will remain strong and reliable for decades. By following the recommended installation steps, you’ll ensure a durable, high-performance finish that stands up to Australia’s toughest conditions.
To keep your COLORBOND® corrugated iron sheets looking their best and performing strongly, regular maintenance is key. Simple cleaning of the roof and wall cladding, especially after exposure to hail or strong winds, helps maintain the vibrant colour and prevents corrosion. Inspect your sheets periodically for any signs of wear or damage, and address repairs promptly using compatible materials to ensure a seamless finish.
Pay special attention to end laps and expansion joints, as these areas are critical for preventing water ingress and reducing the risk of corrosion over the long term. Properly sealed laps and joints help maintain the integrity of your roof and walling, ensuring your building remains protected. With routine maintenance and timely repairs, your COLORBOND® roofing and wall cladding will provide a cost effective, long-lasting solution that stands the test of time.
One of the standout advantages of COLORBOND® corrugated iron sheets is the ability to custom cut each sheet to your required length, making them perfect for both traditional and modern building projects.

Custom cut options allow you to order sheets in the exact lengths you need, reducing waste and saving installation time. This flexibility ensures your roofing or wall cladding fits perfectly, no matter the application. With a variety of profiles and colours available, you can create a tailored solution for residential, commercial, or industrial projects, all while enjoying the strength and durability that COLORBOND® is known for.
