Colorbond Fencing Geelong

Colorbond fencing is a great option, here’s why

Colorbond is Durable

Colorbond for fencing and gates has become very popular over the past couple of decades across Victoria. The reason being that the durability and low maintenance characteristics of this material are pretty hard to beat. A quality fence will not only last for years, but will also pay for itself over time as replacement and repair costs are kept to a minimum, unlike other popular fencing materials on the market. 

Made from quality steel, Colorbond panels are hardy with layers of products bonded in the manufacturing process, making your fence look good as new for years and years to come with virtually no maintenance required. The material is resistant to rust, so it will not have to be replaced frequently. The key here is that the fence or gate needs to be installed properly to be able to get the best return on your investment. Work with a team that is experienced with Colorbond, and knows how to install the material properly so that it maintains its warranty. 

Resistant to rot, termites, fire damage, and corrosion

Colorbond steel is a strong, corrosion-resistant material that is used to build fences and gates. Designed to withstand the Australian environment, Colorbond is also resistant to fire, termites, and rot thanks to the nature of the steel as well as the protective layers added in the manufacturing process. 

Although Colorbond fencing is durable and resistant to rot and other environmental factors, it can still need some maintenance if there is damage caused by nearby trees or branches, vehicle mishaps, and so on. As far as regular maintenance, the best way to keep your Colorbond fence in the best condition is to rinse it off with a hose and a sponge with detergent if required. This is mainly applicable to coastal areas where the salty air is a threat over long exposure times. To find out more about how to care for your colorbond fence, see the Colorbond website.

A good looking fencing material

Colorbond fencing and gates are an attractive alternative to timber and aluminium. Pre-painted in the manufacturing process, the paint is bonded to steel, meaning that the incredible array of colours you get to choose from will last brilliantly for a long time without peeling, flaking, or bubbling. They have a seamless finish. You can ask for colour options and ideas from your fencing contractor so you can narrow down your wide range of choices, they may be able to show you photos of past work to give you more insight into your options. 

Affordable fence installation costs

The cost to install Colorbond as far as labour costs go is pretty comparable to other materials like timber fencing. Coming in panels, Colorbond is straightforward to install and can be done with either 1 to 2 contractors, depending on the length of your fence and if you require retaining walls, etc. If you are considering installing a Colorbond fence on your property, it is important that you understand the costs involved. Getting an onsite quote will give you the most accurate estimate. The cost of timber has gone up, as has Colorbond, therefore the price difference is not as big as it was in past times. 

Long lifespan for your fence

Colorbond fencing and gates are designed to last a long time. Designed and manufactured in Australia for our climate and harsh conditions. 

Typically, a Colorbond fence will last for about 20 years. However, it’s important to keep up with the maintenance to make sure it lasts as long as possible. It’s also worth checking the warranty and making sure that the contractor installs Colorbond to the manufacturers’ standards to keep the warranty intact. It’s a good idea to have a rainfall drainage system around the fence so that water does not pool in the area this will help maintain your fence for longer without continued exposure to pool water.
