Zincalume roofing solutions
When it comes to selecting the ideal roofing material for your property, Zincalume emerges as a solid and cost-effective solution.

Strength and durability of Zincalume
Zincalume steel is an excellent choice for roofing, offering thermal efficiency to maintain ideal temperatures year-round, which is particularly vital in Perth’s varied climate.
Unlike traditional options like corrugated metal or galvanized steel, Zincalume requires less maintenance and resists chipping, peeling, and cracking, making it suitable for demanding uses like sheds.
Not only is it a sturdy and long-lasting solution, but it’s also cost-effective, with warranties up to 25 years against corrosion, ensuring a protected and wise investment.
Frequently asked questions
We’ve gathered the most common questions we are asked to help guide you through all your Zincalume queries.
Yes, Zincalume can be painted. Before painting, it is essential to ensure the surface is clean, free from debris, and well-prepared. Using a primer specifically designed for galvanized or zinc-coated metals is recommended to ensure good adhesion. Following the primer, a high-quality exterior paint can be used. It’s also advisable to check with paint manufacturers, such as Dulux, for specific recommendations on painting zincalume surfaces.
Zincalume is designed to be highly resistant to corrosion. The combination of zinc and aluminium in the coating provides enhanced protection against rust. While the coating can, over time, wear away in certain environments or, if physically damaged, zincalume will generally resist rusting far longer than traditional galvanized steel.
The longevity of a Zincalume roof can vary depending on environmental factors, maintenance, and installation quality. However, under normal conditions and with proper maintenance, a Zincalume roof can last upwards of 25 to 40 years.
