Powerdrive Roofing supplies, installs and restores COLORBOND® roofing across Perth. A new or replacement Colorbond roof starts at $170/m² (tiles off, Colorbond on) or $179/m² (Colorbond off, Colorbond on), and existing Colorbond roofs can be cleaned and re-coated from $22/m². With 22 designer colours and unmatched anti-corrosion performance, it’s the metal roof of choice for Perth homes.
Why Colorbond suits Perth
COLORBOND® steel has protected Australian homes for over 50 years, put through its paces in some of the country’s harshest climates — which makes it well suited to Perth’s sun, storms and coastal salt. It’s lightweight, strong, sheds water fast and holds far less moss than a tiled roof.
It also comes in 22 designer colours across contemporary and classic palettes, so it works on everything from a modern build to a renovated character home. Choosing the colour is genuinely enjoyable — and, being the largest fixture on the house, it’s worth getting right.
New and replacement Colorbond
Whether it’s a new build, an extension, or a re-roof from tile to metal, we install Colorbond to Perth’s standards and at fair prices. Re-roofing from tile to Colorbond is $170/m²; Colorbond-to-Colorbond replacement is $179/m². We handle the strip-out, any batten and sarking work, flashings and the new sheeting.
Switching from a heavy tile roof to Colorbond also lightens the load on an older frame, which is one reason so many Perth homeowners make the change.
Restoring an existing Colorbond roof
Not every Colorbond roof needs replacing. Certain ranges fade or deteriorate after 10 to 15 years in Perth’s climate, and when the colour goes you don’t have to re-roof — a Colorbond restoration cleans, treats and re-coats it from $22/m², with a 15-year paint warranty. We’ll advise honestly whether yours is a candidate for re-coating or genuinely needs replacing.
Colorbond vs Zincalume
If you’re weighing metal options, Colorbond is the coated, coloured choice and Zincalume the cheaper, unpainted one. Both are quality BlueScope steel. For a home, most Perth owners choose Colorbond for the finish and colour; for sheds and budget jobs, Zincalume does the job. We’re happy to talk through profile, colour and material for your project — with a free design consultation at your home.
Getting the details right
A Colorbond roof is only as good as its installation. Correct fixings, flashings, fall and sarking are what keep it watertight and quiet for decades — details that don’t show in a quote but show in the years afterwards. Profile matters too: different Colorbond profiles suit different roof pitches and looks. We help you choose the right profile and colour for your home and pitch, install it properly, and stand behind the work with our 10-year workmanship warranty.
