Our Colorbond roof

Posted by Cath Swan |

Went to look at the the house this arvo to see if the roof was finished, and yes, a glorious sight grabbed us!


Just like the Colorbond roof advert, we felt the same way today. Both of us standing there gazing at our beautiful new roof. It really was an incredible sight!

As I stated in my last post, I love the colour and seeing it completely finished just confirmed that
we have made the perfect choice in colour.


The other thing I had forgotten about, was that we added a roof vent on top. My husband calls it a whirly bird, I'm sure it has a proper name, but its that fan thing that sits on your roof and draws air into the ceiling to keep the house cool.




Now that we have a roof, the floor in the house can start to dry out and all the mud that's collected will hopefully be easy to get rid of when they come to do the tiles and carpet.

Looking good!!

Looking good! We're going to be building a Camberwell 26 next yr and been looking at your progress here.
It's well known as a whirly bird, and it is dependent on convection currents to spin ie. heated air in your roof space rises and cause the spinning as it escapes out from the roof.

Yes very true! We were out there today and it was cold and gale force winds, and it was spinning crazy... so guess it does its job in summer as well.
Congrats on your Camberwell 26 as well... its very exciting once in finally starts, and we really love the design of the camberwell.
thanx for reading!
