Why it is on the mound

  • Roofs (Colorbond) The most named Colorbond colour across Dulux, roofers and colour consultants, but at solar absorptance 0.73 it is over the 0.64 roof limit that applies in Queensland's climate zones on the simple compliance path. dulux.com.au colorbond.com makingyourhomebeautiful.com roofwerx.com.au heavymetalroofing.com.au roofingoptions.com.au architectureau.com steelselect.com.au
  • Scheme Part of a roof, wall and trim scheme on the roofs page. Dulux's Timeless scheme, and the three colours a Melbourne painter lists as Australia's favourite exterior set. Monument is 0.73, over the 0.64 roof limit for Queensland zones, so it needs a NatHERS assessment or the dark moved to gutters and cladding.
  • Scheme Part of a roof, wall and trim scheme on the roofs page. Dulux's Modern Traditional scheme: charcoal roof, crisp white walls, black accents. Same roof caveat as above.
  • Scheme Part of a roof, wall and trim scheme on the roofs page. All-steel version: Samantha Bacon pairs a Monument roof with Surfmist or Dover White for Hamptons and Shale Grey for contemporary; BlueScope shows Monument with Surfmist and Southerly.
