    Quick FAQs

    You may not need to ask

    Galvanised iron relies on a zinc coating only microns thick. In coastal humidity and sustained rainfall that layer wears through, the iron beneath begins to rust, and the roof starts leaking, often within a handful of seasons. There is no iron in an AluShade sheet for rust to take hold in, so heavy rain and salt air simply do not start that clock.

    It works the other way round. Thin, dark roofing soaks up solar heat and radiates it down into the rooms below. Aluminium is highly reflective, so the bulk of that heat is turned away before it reaches the structure at all. Interiors stay cooler and cooling systems do less work.

    Manufacturing defects and structural integrity, rust included. Because the sheet is made on our own line rather than bought in and profiled, we can stand behind it: under normal atmospheric conditions your roof will not rust, perforate or fail.

    Twice a year is plenty for most buildings — once before the monsoon and once after it. You are checking that gutters and valleys are clear and that fixings are still seated, not hunting for corrosion, because there is none to find.

    Yes, but tread on the flat of the trough where a purlin supports the sheet, never on the crown of a rib. On the thinner gauges, spreading your weight across a plank is better again.

    The finish is a Super Durable Modified Polyester baked onto the coil rather than paint sprayed onto a formed sheet, so it holds colour far longer than a painted roof. Some softening of tone after many years of direct sun is normal for any coating.

    A single sheet can be lifted and replaced without disturbing the runs either side, which is a practical advantage of a screwed profile over interlocking tile. Order a couple of spare lengths with the job and keep them flat and dry.

    Treat it as you would any metal roof and follow your electrical consultant’s direction for the building. Aluminium conducts, so it has to be bonded into the building’s earthing arrangement wherever the code calls for it.

    Often yes, given a sound structure underneath and the right battens or purlins. At roughly a third the weight of coated steel, overlaying rarely creates a load problem — but have the existing frame assessed before committing to it.
