Why a Verandah Makes All the Difference

Imagine sipping your morning coffee under a shaded outdoor verandah, protected from sun and drizzle alike. A verandah transforms home appeal and creates an inviting transition between inside and out. It’s the perfect canvas for hanging ferns, festoon lights and even a swing chair. As the seasons change, your verandah remains a comfortable retreat: cooling shade in summer, cosy cover for winter gatherings, and an alfresco dining spot during balmy spring evenings.

Let Us Install a Verandah With Your Desired Materials

Choose from a variety of finishes for your outdoor verandah that reflect your style and budget:

Timber Verandah: Spotted gum, Blackbutt or Merbau posts provide organic warmth; all treated for rot and pest resistance.
Steel Structures: Powder‑coated steel beams offer sleek, modern lines and require minimal upkeep.
Roofing Profiles: Opt for classic gable, contemporary skillion or a decorative barrel vault. Pair with Colourbond carport with our carport and pergola builders in Melbourne for a cohesive finish.
Ceiling Liners: Select decorative timber slats, smooth PVC panels or hidden LED strip channels for a polished look.
Custom Colours: Match your home’s palette exactly, from heritage neutrals to bold accent hues.

Materials

Treated Timber Frame

For the frame of the patio or verandah, there are 2 options to consider, timber or steel. The most cost-effective and durable timber option is treated pine. It is also readily available and practical to use. It is painted to your chosen colour with consideration of the existing colour-scheme of your home. It is recommended that paint is re-applied every 10 years and paint suitable for application in external environments is used.

Steel frame

A steel frame is also a common choice among our customers. Steel beams that are powder-coated to a select range of colours, providing you with a ‘maintenance-free’ option. Cleaning dust and cob webs will be as far as you would need to go when maintaining your steel structure for years to come.

Colorbond Roof Sheets

We only utilise ‘Made by Australia’ steel roof sheets for our projects. Colorbond roof sheets are designed and tested for the Australian climate. Various profiles and a large range of colours are available for selection. The ceiling can be closed off with plasterboard to achieve a flat ceiling to match the internals ceilings of your home.

Polycarbonate Roof Sheets

Polycarbonate sheeting is often utilised in order to allow natural light into habitable and non-habitable areas. We have the option to utilise polycarbonate sheeting throughout or to utilise polycarbonate sheeting along with colorbond sheeting. Various shades and colours are available for selection, depending on the customers preference for the balance between natural light and heat transmission. Darker shaded sheets allow less light and heat transmission.

Insulated Panel Roof Sheets

Insulated panels provide a higher-end ceiling finish for those who prefer an alternative to standard colorbond and polycarbonate roof sheeting. Insulated panels provide a similar ceiling finish to the traditional plasterboard ceiling, while providing superior insulation. Downlights and ceiling fans can be incorporated into the design.

Gable Roof

A gable roof patio or verandah provides a classic look with increased height. The industry standard pitch the roof is built to is 22deg. Due to the available height under the ridge beam, it is possible that a fan is installed to provide some comfort during warmer days and evenings. Inevitably the design provides for a spacious feel and is suitable for those that appreciate some extra head room. The only downside is cost, as they are dearer to build when compared to a flat roof, especially in steel.

Flat Roof

Although the name suggests no fall, these roofs are commonly built to a pitch between a 1 deg to 5 deg pitch. The determination of the pitch is dependent on a number of factors i.e. height of your homes fascia, width of structure in the direction of the roof fall a flat roof design is less expensive to build compared to a gable roof design.

Riser brackets

With the use of riser brackets, up to an additional 600mm of roof height can be achieved from the current fascia level of your home. The section above the gutter can be left open or closed up with sheeting, the common preference being to close it off with polycarbonate sheeting.

Roof Extenda Brackets

Roof extenda brackets are a propriety system whereby brackets are positioned directly above the timber wall plate of your home and fixed to the wall plate and rafter as it extends over the wall plate. This system of roof design is called the ‘fly-over design’ and can be especially popular with homes that have a steel fascia gutter installed.

Fascia Attachments

The roof of a Verandah or patio are most commonly attached to the fascia directly below the gutter, by either attaching timber rafters directly to the timber fascia with joist hangers whilst strengthening the timber fascia by blocking out behind the fascia, or with the use of rafter brackets that are directly bolted on to the rafters of your roof. This method of attachment suits most standard height homes.

Wall Attachments

‘Where the heights of eaves are 2.7m high or higher, it is possible to attached the roof of your verandah or patio directly to the wall, whether your home is brick or timber weatherboards’. For brick walls beams are anchored into the brickwork with bolts or masonry screws. For weatherboard homes, steel or timber waling beams are screwed through the weatherboards and fixed into the stud wall behind.
