Cladding

Metal Wall Cladding transforms ageing commercial and industrial buildings, improving weather protection, appearance, durability and long-term asset value.

Project: Fordland
MRCAA Industry Award Winner 2022

At R.O. Steel Roofing, we specialise in commercial and industrial recladding projects that are often completed as part of a broader building upgrade, alongside new roofing, gutters, downpipes, flashings and associated detailing.

The result is a more complete external refurbishment that can significantly improve the performance and appearance of an existing building, often giving it the look and feel of a new facility.

Before Works Commence

Assessing Existing Building Conditions

Every recladding project is different. Existing wall construction, structural supports, weatherproofing details, service penetrations, access requirements and building operations all influence the design and delivery of the replacement system.

 

By assessing these conditions early, we can identify potential challenges, develop practical solutions and deliver cladding upgrades that enhance appearance, durability and long-term building performance.

Project Delivery

End-To-End Project Management

Many recladding projects involve works beyond the wall cladding itself. Structural modifications, engineering requirements, access equipment, crane operations, traffic management, asbestos air monitoring specialists, electrical services and other specialist trades may all need to be integrated into the project.

 

By identifying these requirements early, we can coordinate the necessary trades, equipment and project controls through a single contract. This simplifies delivery for the client and keeps the upgrade moving efficiently from commencement through to completion.

  • Yes. Recladding is often undertaken as part of a broader commercial building upgrade to improve weather protection, appearance, durability and long-term building performance.

    Where possible, undertaking wall cladding replacement while a building is vacant or between tenancies can also reduce costs, as access is generally easier and there are fewer operational, staging and tenant-management requirements.

  • Yes. Wall cladding projects are often completed alongside new roofing, gutters, downpipes, flashings and associated detailing as part of a broader external building upgrade.

  • Yes. Depending on the project, we can coordinate structural modifications, engineering requirements, scaffolding and other access equipment, crane operations, traffic management and other specialist trades as part of the overall delivery.

  • We assess the existing wall construction, structural supports, weatherproofing details, service penetrations, access requirements, desired finish and building operations before developing the replacement approach.

  • Yes. Existing wall cladding can be upgraded or replaced with a suitable new metal cladding system. Where an exact match is required, this will depend on whether the existing profile and colour are still available.

    If an exact match is no longer available, we can recommend alternative profiles, colours or design solutions to achieve a practical and visually appropriate result.

  • We install a range of commercial and industrial metal wall cladding systems using COLORBOND® and ZINCALUME® steel, including profiles such as TRIMDEK® and SPANDEK®, together with other architectural and industrial cladding profiles where appropriate. The system, profile, colour and detailing are selected to suit the building, performance requirements and desired appearance.
