CLAYFIELD - COLORBOND® ‘Dover White’

Roof replacement in Clayfield, finished in COLORBOND® steel in the colour ‘Dover White’.

Queenslanders and interwar homes on deep blocks, much of it under Brisbane City Council's Traditional Building Character Overlay, and almost none of it with a simple roofline. Gables, verandah returns, changes of pitch, and a lot of detail at the edges.

A roof like this is decided at the flashings. Every gable end, every verandah junction, every awkward transition is set out and folded to suit the house rather than the other way around.

Dover White™ was the right call here. A clean, crisp white drawn from chalky sand and ghost gum bark, it reads as period-correct on a character home while sitting among the lowest solar absorptance figures in the COLORBOND® range - which counts for something above an uninsulated roof space in a Brisbane summer.
