Is architectural roofing right for me?

First and foremost, architectural roofs are designed to make a statement. They’re generally conceptualised as part of an innovative new build to ensure that engineering is precisely handled from the start.

Architectural roofing often comes with a modern aesthetic, which continues to resonate widely with Melburnians. Part of the appeal is also that metal cladding in the form of copper, zinc, and aluminium are the most popular materials used in this style of roofing. In most cases, flashings and roofing materials are designed to job specifications and then custom-made to ensure the perfect design.

What are the key benefits of architectural roofing?

IMG 6109 - Architectural RoofingWe’re going beyond the design factors to highlight just how creative and content you can be with the new architectural roof

  • Ecofriendly:  In addition to their long-lasting design, many metals are recyclable.
  • Durability: Metal cladding is designed to withstand elements in weather of all sorts and can last upwards of 100 years.
  • Versatile: Unlike traditional roofing materials, metal cladding allows designers to create new shapes, styles, and contours for a versatile and seamless finish.
  • Maintenance: There’s little to no maintenance needed once the panels and cladding are in place.

Does architectural roofing take a long time to complete?

IMG 2607 - Architectural RoofingIn many cases, the majority of the time taken up for a project of this type is during the design phase. It’s then that the architect will work with the builder to define the scope of the project requirements and work on a design that will incorporate all of the needs regarding aesthetic as well as engineering stability. Consider that you need to incorporate proper roof plumbing into the design as well as any creative elements. Once the design is finalised, plans may need to be sent to your local council or municipality for review and approval before the building can start.

With some architectural roofing projects, elements of the roof itself can be built or manufactured offsite and then delivered to the property in progress in stages. This can help expedite the build process while also ensuring that intricate aspects of the build are managed correctly and expertly. When and how the roof is installed will be a factor of the progress for the rest of the build framing timeline.

How to choose a professional for your roofing project

When it comes to architectural roofing, you’re talking about more than just changing the materials on an existing roof or refreshing an existing façade. You’re talking about a highly skilled design project that requires professionals who know the ins and outs of engineering as well as have a keen design aesthetic.

Start by collecting ideas of your own and sharing them with a potential roofing provider. You’ll want to compare your interests with their portfolio of completed work to make sure that there is a good match. Once you have it narrowed down by style, ask to speak with a few customer references. Remember that the process is a collaborative one when it comes to designing a property or roof, so you’ll want to choose someone that you can work well with over a period of time. Listening to other customer experiences can help give you a sense of what it will be like to work with the firm for your own project, as well as things to watch out for.

Now it’s time to check credentials. You’ll never want to work with a company that is not licensed and insured to do the work described. Make sure that whoever you choose is not just a designer; they also need to be a builder who can deliver on the project as outlined. Ask about other accreditations or memberships that they might have to give you a sense of their reputation. And never work with anyone who cannot show you proof of their credentials.
