New Zealand is known for its diverse and often spectacular landscapes, from the snow-capped mountains of the South Island to the lush tropical rainforests of the Great Barrier Island. With this variety comes a range of roofing styles that make it easy for homeowners to find a solution that fits aesthetically with their home’s particular environment and accommodates their budget and energy efficiency needs.
Your roof serves as the crowning glory of your home. Not only does it protect the structure of your home from the elements, but its style and design can also dramatically affect the overall aesthetic appeal of your property. With so many options, you’ll find a roofing style that best suits your needs and budget.
Here are some of New Zealand’s most popular roofing styles:
Corrugated Iron: This classic roofing style is cost-effective and easy to install, making it an ideal option for people who are looking for a durable yet budget-friendly roofing solution. It also offers excellent protection against the elements, with its thick metal panels forming a barrier between the roof and the elements, while its wide range of colours makes it easy to find a style that suits your home.
Metal Panels: Metal panels are made with various profile options and finishing techniques, giving the appearance of a typical tiled roof. They provide a house with excellent durability and dependability in addition to a lovely beauty since they are made from pressed, high-grade steel mixed with cutting-edge Zincalume technology.
Clay Tiles: On roofs with a pitch over 10 degrees, clay tiles (made of terracotta or concrete) may be utilized. They require stronger wood bracing because of their three times greater weight than conventional roofing materials, which raises the cost of the roof.
Asphalt: Asphalt shingles can be used on roofs with a slope more than 15 degrees, but they must be laid on plywood, raising the roof substrate cost.
