colorbond gutters
For Melbourne homes, a matched steel system delivers reliable water control and a tidy finish.
We define these as steel components made with a durable, multi‑layer finish to match or complement your roofing and fascia. The same five‑layer construction used in roofing gives proven durability in harsh Australian weather.
Our team installs, repairs and maintains these systems with an eye to affordability and long life. We size the steel guttering and downpipes to suit roof catchment and local rainfall, and we set fall, brackets and outlets to control flow.
- Seamless look: matched colour and profile for a consistent exterior style.
- Low upkeep: long service life and simple seasonal checks reduce ongoing costs.
- When to replace: persistent leaks, severe corrosion or warped sections usually justify replacement over patch repairs.
| Consideration | Repair | Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Typical cost | Lower short‑term | Higher initial, better long‑term value |
| Service life | Limited if damage recurs | Full expected life of the product |
| Best for | Minor leaks or isolated damage | Widespread corrosion, warping or aesthetic upgrade |
We’re available 24/7 to assess your situation and recommend the most cost‑effective option for your home.
Colour range and finishes to suit your home
Selecting complementary tones for eaves components gives a cohesive, finished look. We guide you through the available palette so choices are confident and lasting.
22 standard colours and premium matt finishes
There are 22 standard colours, including six premium matt finish options that reduce glare and create a softer look.
Our products use the same five-layer steel system tested over 50 years for tough Australian conditions. That means matching roof, fascia and downpipe components will share the same durable finish.
Matching components for a cohesive façade
We help map the colour range so you can shortlist tones that suit nearby brick, render and landscaping. On-site samples are useful because light changes how a colour reads.
Popular tones and practical tips
Timeless choices include Surfmist, Monument, Woodland Grey, Shale Grey and Classic Cream™. Lighter tones show dust more easily; darker tones can absorb more heat at the roof edge.
| Consideration | What to choose | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Glare control | Premium matt finish | Reduced reflection, modern style |
| Matching eaves | Same colour for fascia and downpipe | Unified street appeal |
| Durability | Five-layer steel finish | Long-term protection in harsh weather |
We offer colour consultation during quoting to finalise combinations from the extensive range and supply matching accessories so the eave line reads as one design intent.
Gutter profiles for every style and performance need
We advise on selecting the right profile to balance appearance and flow capacity for your roof. Our approach pairs practical performance with a finish that suits the building’s overall style.
Quad and Squareline: modern performance
Quad and Squareline profiles suit contemporary homes. Their angular shape and deeper section increase flow capacity.
That makes them ideal where roof catchment and valley discharge demand high-volume evacuation. Brackets and joints differ from round designs, so installation time and access for maintenance vary.
Ogee for heritage appeal; Half Round for clean lines
Ogee preserves traditional lines for heritage styles while meeting current drainage needs. It matches older roof details without sacrificing function.
Half round offers a minimal, elegant look. The half, round profile reduces visual bulk and moves water efficiently along long eaves.
We consider profile depth, bead shape and outlet sizing to cope with intense rainfall. We also check fascia height, soffit detail and downpipe locations so the chosen profile reads as one design element.
| Profile | Best for | Performance note |
|---|---|---|
| Quad / Squareline | Modern homes, high flow | Deeper profile, larger capacity |
| Ogee | Heritage and period style | Traditional look, good flow if sized correctly |
| Half Round | Clean lines, long eaves | Less debris build-up, efficient evacuation |
- We assess roof catchment and downpipe placement before recommending a profile.
- We specify steel materials and fixings suitable for Melbourne weather to keep shape and alignment.
- Our recommendation balances aesthetics, budget and hydraulic performance for your project.
What makes COLORBOND steel a high-performance choice
Understanding the construction of the material helps explain why it lasts in tough weather. We outline the key layers, coatings and testing that deliver dependable results for roofing and eave components.
Five-layer product and Activate technology
We use a five-layer system that combines a metallic base, corrosion-resistant layers and baked topcoats to protect the metal. This structure keeps the finish intact and reduces corrosion at cut edges.
Activate technology adds sacrificial protection around fasteners and penetrations. That reduces localised rust and helps preserve warranty conditions.
Tested for harsh Australian conditions
The system has been tested for over 50 years in local conditions. That testing gives us confidence in real-world performance and in fewer repairs over time.
Heat control with reflectance and matt options
Solar reflectance technology and the premium Matt finishes help manage heat at the roof edge. Choosing the right colour and finish can lower thermal load and extend the life of the steel product.
- Benefits: reduced repainting, less maintenance and consistent appearance.
- Installer practice: we avoid dissimilar metals and use correct fasteners and sealants to protect the system and warranty.
Durability, fire performance and suitability for Australian conditions
Our priority is to pair resilient steel products with installation standards that last under harsh Australian weather. We select materials and details that target long-term durability and reliable operation for your home.
Non-combustible performance in CSIRO testing
Independent CSIRO testing shows the product met non-combustible criteria, including a 30‑minute flame immersion test. That result gives confidence for properties in bushfire-prone areas when installed to specification.
Corrosion resistance and long-lasting finish in coastal and urban areas
BlueScope steel construction and protective coatings resist rust across coastal and urban conditions. The finish tolerates UV and temperature cycling so appearance and protection remain at a high level.
- Less risk of water ingress protects framing, linings and insulation near the eaves.
- Correct profile and capacity selection improves drainage during heavy rainfall events.
- BlueScope-backed warranties apply to eligible product lines installed to spec.
| Aspect | Benefit | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Fire performance | Improved safety | Use CSIRO‑tested product and clear debris yearly |
| Corrosion resistance | Longer life | Follow maintenance and avoid dissimilar metals |
| Thermal reflectance | Lower heat load | Choose solar reflectance technology where needed |
We follow best-practice detailing and recommend simple maintenance to preserve performance. That combination of resilient material and correct installation suits Australian conditions and protects your roofline for years.
Installation and compliance you can trust
Our installation team follows strict standards so every roof edge meets current regulations. We combine licensed workmanship with clear documentation to give homeowners confidence in both safety and appearance.
Fully compliant with Australian plumbing standards and regulations
We complete on-site assessments to match the right profile and size to your building and roof layout. This ensures correct fall, bracket spacing and outlet positions for reliable water protection.
Licensed workmanship and documentation for peace of mind
We provide licensed installers and supply the paperwork required for qualifying projects, including plumbing compliance certificates where applicable in Victoria. That paperwork demonstrates compliance at the required level.
- We advise on profiles and sizing to suit specific roof catchments and rainfall intensities.
- We coordinate installation with fascia and downpipes so the roofing system performs as designed during storms.
- We specify compatible sealants and fasteners to preserve warranties and reduce corrosion risk.
- We manage removal, disposal and integration with existing roofing elements safely.

Our focus is on reliable protection and a finished result that matches the building’s style. We brief you on care and maintenance to keep the system performing to its designed level.
Maintenance tips to maximise gutter life and performance
A short checklist each season helps protect your roofline and keeps water flowing away from your home. Regular, simple upkeep prevents small faults from becoming costly problems.
Regular inspections and clearing blockages
We recommend quarterly checks to remove leaves and sediment that block flow. Clean troughs and outlets so rainwater exits the roofing system quickly and evenly.
Check for leaks or cracks; trim overhanging branches
Inspect joints, mitres and outlets for hairline cracks or stains. Trim nearby branches to reduce debris and protect the eave colour finish from abrasion.
Keep downpipes clear to protect your building
Clear downpipes to prevent pooling near foundations. Half Round profiles can shed debris more easily, which may extend the time between cleans.
- Quarterly inspections: remove leaves and sediment.
- Trim foliage: limit debris and damage to the finish.
- Watch for signs: sagging, staining or persistent overflow need prompt attention.
- Safe access: use correct ladders or call our team for high or complex rooflines.
We provide 24/7 reactive repairs and replacements if inspections reveal urgent faults. We record findings to guide future upgrades and help you keep the system performing long-term.
Quality materials and trusted brand partnerships
Quality starts with the source: we specify proven steel products and verified components for every job to ensure consistent performance and delivery.
Using genuine BlueScope material
We source genuine bluescope steel to supply high‑strength, painted finishes that suit Australian conditions.
This ensures the product matches warranty requirements and keeps performance consistent across the eave line.
Selecting fascia, downpipes and accessories
We offer a wide range of fascia and downpipe sizes to match roof catchment and style.
Accessories and leaf solutions are chosen to fit the profile and preserve the finish so the visual transition reads as one quality system.
- We confirm compatibility of fixings to protect the steel product and warranties.
- We coordinate logistics to reduce lead times and secure colour matching.
- We compare steel gutter and steel gutters options to balance value and longevity.
