Choose the right
colour for you

Choose your colour: ColorCote coloursteel has a wide range of colours, from classic greys and creams to bold, stunning darks. We also have a range of low reflectivity colours with low total solar reflectivity (TSR) values even in lighter colours.

Match your colour to your design and environment

Whether you’re re-roofing a villa set in a tree-lined heritage-protected avenue, or you’re building an architecturally designed cutting-edge house, our range of colours will suit your needs and the style of your home.
Our paint finishes range from bold and high gloss to low gloss colours that meet council reflectivity requirements or will subtly blend with your environment.

How to choose the right colour

With over 40 colours to choose from, how do you know what will look best on your house? The ColorCote Roof Viewer app lets you see your favourites – on your house – before making your final decision.

  • Metallic Silver

    Metallic Gunmetal

    Colours in this range may vary slightly between production runs. It is imperative that the entire quantity required for each project is purchased as a single order. Metallic colours also incur a production surcharge.

    Due to the composition of this paint film, metallic colours are not recommended for use in coastal environments.

  • Lazerite Blue

    Poppy

    These colours are not available with ceramic pigmentation, therefore the level of colour retention is not as high as the rest of our range. There is no colour fade warranty given on these colours.

Due to the many variations in computer screens and web browsers, the colours you see may not be exactly the same as ColorCote products. It is recommended that you order a hard copy of the ColorCote colour chart or sample first, before placing the order for your new roof. You can do this here
