What’s Involved with Metal Cladding

Understanding what goes into metal cladding helps homeowners make informed choices about replacements or repairs. Our team at Metro Roofing Adelaide specialises in every stage, so we know what matters for a quality, compliant result.

Material Selection for Cladding Adelaide Projects

Material choice forms the backbone of any cladding job. We work with Colorbond®, Bluescope, Lysaght, and Metroll because these proven materials handle local conditions well. Selecting the right cladding means weighing up corrosion resistance, maintenance needs, and desired lifespan.

Some clients focus on colour options or energy efficiency, while others need something robust for a particular environment. We source materials direct from reputable local suppliers so everything meets Australian standards and suits each client’s design and site.

Ensuring Compliance and Installation Methods

Every cladding project must comply with Australian Building Codes, especially AS 1562.1:2018. Our team checks all fire safety, drainage, and structural requirements well before installation.

For most Colorbond® and metal panels, we use manufacturer-recommended systems like screw fixing and correct flashing techniques. This ensures panels are weather-tight, aligned, and resistant to both wind and moisture.

Attention to these details is what delivers a long-lasting finish and keeps your property protected for decades.

Site Preparation and Handling of Metal Cladding

Before new cladding goes up, we carefully remove any old materials and repair the underlying structure, making sure the surface is secure and ready. Metal panels are fragile before installation, so we keep them dry, flat, and off the ground on-site to avoid dents or scratches.

Any bespoke flashings or cuts are managed by our experienced team to maintain both appearance and performance.

Ongoing Maintenance for Cladding

Properly installed metal cladding is low-maintenance, but scheduled inspections make all the difference. We advise annual checks to make sure fasteners remain secure, seals are intact, and no corrosion has started.

Occasional cleaning helps preserve both colour and finish, especially for Colorbond®. Our installations are designed for longevity, often exceeding 20 years with routine care.

If you’re looking at metal cladding for repairs or a fresh replacement, get in touch with Metro Roofing Adelaide. We’ll walk you through every step and ensure the end result stands the test of time.

 

 

Why You Should Consider Metal Cladding

Metal cladding delivers a balance of durability, efficiency, and versatility for homes and commercial properties.

Our team at Metro Roofing Adelaide works only with proven metal systems like Colorbond® and BlueScope, so you get a solution that stands up to real-world conditions.

Superior Durability for Adelaide Climates

Metal cladding offers robust protection against corrosion, storms, and daily wear. Unlike other materials, it resists rot, cracking, and pest damage, so no worries about termites or warping.

Our cladding installations use top-grade suppliers such as Lysaght and Metroll for long-term performance, so you can expect decades of low-fuss reliability.

Minimal Maintenance and Easy Upkeep

With metal cladding, there’s no need for regular repainting or surface treatments. Occasional cleaning with mild soap is usually all it takes to keep your exterior looking sharp.

Metro Roofing Adelaide focuses on replacement and repair, so we’ll ensure your new cladding maintains its quality and visual appeal for years, saving you future headaches.

Weatherproof Protection and Fire Resistance

Properly installed metal cladding shields your property from moisture, wind, and bushfire risks. Systems using Colorbond® or similar steels are non-combustible and meet strict local building codes.

Our cladding team is well-versed in all compliance requirements, from water ingress detailing to fire ratings. Your safety and the building’s longevity are always top of mind.

Flexible Design and Custom Fit

Metal cladding comes in a huge variety of profiles and colours, allowing for creative architectural solutions. We can tailor cladding to match heritage homes, sleek modern renovations, or commercial façades.

Our experience means a seamless finish. Whether you want to stand out or blend in, we help you get the look and function you need.

Metro Roofing Adelaide handles every metal cladding replacement or repair with care and technical skill.

How To Choose The Right Cladding

Selecting cladding for your project is about getting the details right from the start. Our team at Metro Roofing Adelaide focuses only on metal solutions, mainly Colorbond®, Bluescope Lysaght, and Metroll. We handle both replacements and repairs across Adelaide.

Compliance With Local Building Codes

Every cladding job in Adelaide must meet current safety rules, including fire resistance and insulation standards. Not all materials are approved in bushfire-prone or multi-level areas.

We only use metal cladding that’s certified non-combustible and meets South Australia’s building codes. This helps protect your property and clears the compliance process.

Material Durability and Ongoing Maintenance

Metal cladding, especially Colorbond® steel, fares well in the region’s climate. It’s built to handle high UV, temperature shifts, and sudden downpours.

Unlike timber or vinyl, metal doesn’t need sealing or intensive upkeep. Our cladding systems keep maintenance simple and long-term costs down.

Style, Colour and Finish Range

Customising the look is straightforward with steel and metal products. We work with suppliers that offer a large colour palette and textured finishes. This lets us help you match your cladding to both modern builds and heritage homes.

Sustainability and Environmental Footprint

Our metal options are fully recyclable and often made with recycled content. We prioritise suppliers with strong sustainability practices and support re-cladding to reduce landfill. Choosing metal cladding is a responsible choice for Adelaide’s future.

If you want straightforward advice or a quote on cladding projects, contact our team at Metro Roofing Adelaide. We’ll help you choose a system that fits your project, lasts, and meets local standards.

 

 

How We Handle Cladding Works in Adelaide

Cladding is about protecting and updating your property, so it’s important you know exactly what to expect. At Metro Roofing Adelaide, we work only with metal cladding, focusing on quality and compliance for homes and businesses.

Assess the Condition and Discuss Options

We start by inspecting your existing metal cladding or bare walls, checking for damage, wear, or any compliance concerns. We’ll talk you through whether a repair or full replacement makes more sense, always considering age, energy efficiency, and local requirements.

Plan and Carry Out the Work

Once we settle on the best approach, our team organises materials like Colorbond® or Bluescope Lysaght, matched to your needs and property style. We then handle the work itself, be it repairing targeted sections or replacing the lot, making sure everything lines up with South Australian building codes and long-term durability.

The result is metal cladding that does its job and looks just right. We keep it straightforward, clear, and built to last.

Conduct Finishing Touches

We check all installed cladding for straightness, secure fixing, and alignment with plans. Any minor adjustments are made so the finish is consistent and weather-tight. This step is about ensuring everything meets both visual standards and functional requirements.

Clean Site and Complete Hand Over

Once work is finished, we clean up thoroughly by removing offcuts, packaging, and equipment. We walk you through the result, making sure you’re happy with the outcome and have the info needed for ongoing care.

Frequently Asked Questions

Metal cladding costs typically range from $90 to $180 per square metre for standard installations, with repairs often coming in at the lower end of that scale. The actual price you’ll pay depends on several factors, like the size of your project, the specific material you choose (for example, Colorbond® and Bluescope Lysaght offer different finishes and performance), and the complexity of your building’s design.

Additional costs can arise if your property has existing damage, is in a hard-to-access area, or requires compliance upgrades for local codes. As Metro Roofing Adelaide, we specialise in metal cladding solutions and always provide transparent, obligation-free quotes specific to your needs.

If you’d like a detailed breakdown or want to compare costs for repairs versus full replacement, get in touch with us today.

Whether you need council approval for cladding depends on the scope and type of work. For most external metal cladding projects, especially those that involve changing the façade or significantly altering the building’s appearance, development approval from your local council is often required.

Simple repairs or like-for-like replacements using the same metal (such as Colorbond® or Bluescope Lysaght) usually do not need formal approval, but it’s always wise to check with your local council, as requirements can differ between suburbs.

At Metro Roofing Adelaide, we regularly help clients navigate these regulations and can advise you on what steps are needed for your specific situation. If you’re unsure about compliance or approvals for your cladding work, please contact us for tailored guidance and a no-obligation assessment.

As a general rule, we suggest repairs if the damage to your metal cladding is localised, the panels are relatively new, and there’s no sign of recurring leaks or widespread corrosion. Full cladding replacement is often the smarter choice if your building’s façade has large areas of rust, repeated weather-related issues, or is approaching the end of its normal 20 to 40-year lifecycle.

Repairs are generally more affordable up front, but repeated patch jobs can add up quickly if the underlying issues aren’t resolved. We start with a thorough inspection so you can weigh the long-term benefits versus immediate costs and make an informed choice.

If you’re unsure which way to go, reach out for an obligation-free assessment. We’re here to help you protect your investment for the long haul.

Most metal cladding projects, whether a small repair or a full replacement, usually take anywhere from one to three weeks from your initial inquiry to final installation. For minor repairs, Metro Roofing Adelaide can often provide a quote within a few days and book the work in for the following week, depending on demand and weather conditions.

Full replacements or new installations tend to take longer due to the need for site inspections, material selection (often Colorbond® or Bluescope Lysaght), and possible council approvals. The actual installation itself is usually wrapped up within several days for an average-sized home, though more complex commercial jobs may take longer.
