Why Insulate Your Roof

Your Roof Is Your Biggest Source of Summer Heat

In South East Queensland, up to 35% of your home's heat gain comes from the roof. A metal or tiled roof in direct summer sun can reach 70°C+ — and without proper insulation, that heat radiates straight into your ceiling cavity and living spaces.

Anticon® reflective blanket insulation, installed between the roofing sheets and battens, acts as a radiant and thermal barrier — reflecting heat away and slowing conduction into your home. The result is measurably lower ambient temperatures and real savings on energy bills.

Cut Air Conditioning Costs

Properly insulated homes use significantly less energy to cool — typical savings range from 15–30% on summer electricity bills.

Condensation Control

Anticon® also controls condensation on the underside of metal roofing — preventing rust from forming on your structural purlins and battens.

Acoustic Benefit

Insulation dramatically reduces rain noise on metal roofs — a major comfort improvement appreciated by anyone who has tried sleeping through a Queensland downpour.

Products We Install

Insulation Products We Recommend & Install

We specify the right insulation system for your roof type, pitch, and climate zone — then install it correctly alongside your Colorbond® roof.

Anticon® 70 Blanket

BlueScope's standard-specification insulation blanket. Included as standard in all of our roof replacements and new installations. The most popular choice for South East Queensland.

Anticon® 100 Premium

Increased thickness for homes in hotter locations or with large open-plan living areas that are difficult to cool. Provides superior R-value and enhanced acoustic performance.

Foil Sarking

Reflective sarking installed under tile roofs as a secondary radiant barrier — also provides a waterproofing layer that catches any water penetrating through cracked or slipped tiles.

Combined with Ventilation

Insulation works best alongside proper roof ventilation. We assess and recommend Whirlybird placement to flush hot air from your roof cavity for maximum effectiveness.

Best Value: During Replacement

The most cost-effective time to insulate is during a roof replacement. No additional lift-and-relay costs — the blanket is laid directly before the new Colorbond® sheets go on.

Retrofit Insulation

Already have a roof but want to insulate? We can partially lift Colorbond® sheets in sections to lay insulation blanket — then re-fix and reseal to the original standard.

Reviews

What Homeowners Say After Insulating

★★★★★

"Had Anticon blanket added when Ascend replaced our roof. The difference in summer heat is remarkable — the back rooms that used to be unbearable are now actually liveable. Air con runs half as much."

JW
Jason W.Mount Gravatt, Brisbane
★★★★★

"We didn't have insulation under our old metal roof — the rain noise was incredible. After the replacement with Anticon, our home is quiet and cool. Absolutely worth every cent."

CB
Christine B.Coomera, Gold Coast
★★★★★

"Asked Ascend to retrofit insulation under an older Colorbond roof. They were careful, professional and the results are real. Power bills noticeably lower this summer."

FAQ

Roof Insulation Questions Answered

Yes — significantly. Anticon® blanket reduces radiant heat transfer into your ceiling cavity by up to 65%. Combined with correct ventilation (Whirlybirds), this translates to measurably cooler living spaces and lower energy bills in Queensland's subtropical summers.

Yes, though it's most cost-effective when done during a roof replacement or new install. Retrofitting is possible — we partially lift sections of sheeting to lay the blanket — but does incur additional labour cost.

When added during a roof installation or replacement, Anticon® blanket typically adds $2,000–$5,000 depending on roof size and insulation grade. A retrofit may cost more due to additional labour. We provide a free quote — get in touch.

Absolutely. This is one of the most appreciated benefits of Anticon® blanket insulation. Rain on an uninsulated metal roof in a Queensland storm is extremely loud — with blanket insulation, the noise is dramatically reduced to a pleasant background sound.
