										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>The Origin of Bali Huts</h2>
<p>As the name suggests, Bali Huts originate from the Indonesian island of Bali. They are built with local materials such as thatched roofs, bamboo, and Alang Alang, This type of hut is a superior solution for combining aesthetics and functionality in the high wind condition and tropical climate of Bali.</p>
<p>And its popularity spread throughout other countries, including Australia. With the help of the authentic <a href="https://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alang-alang" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alang Alang</a> (a natural grass used for roof rethatching), it became one of Australia’s favourite outdoor structure materials.</p>
<p>Hence, it is safe to say that Bali’s exquisite tropical view extends through to the Australian lifestyle.</p>
<h2>The Advantages of Refurbishing and Rethatching Bali Huts</h2>
<p>With summer around the corner, you might just want to enjoy and relax in your backyard. And in that case, let East Coast Bali Huts and Gazebos help you immerse yourself in complete relaxation and wonder as we transform your outdoor space aesthetically and effectively.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When it comes to functionality and beauty, <a href="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/asphalt-shingles-everything-you-need-to-know/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the asphalt shingle</a> tops the list of preferred roofing systems. It is not only visually appealing but also resistant to environmental damage. Yet, its advantages are useless if the proper installation procedure is not followed. That is why it pays to know the appropriate steps for asphalt shingles installation to save time and money and enjoy all its advantages.</p>
<h2><strong>What to do?</strong></h2>
<p>Here are the basic steps of asphalt shingles installation:</p>
<h2><strong>STEP #1: Preparation</strong></h2>
<p>Planning and preparation are essential in any installation process. And for the installation of asphalt shingles, here are the things to consider when planning:</p>
<h3>Examine the Roof</h3>
<p>To ensure the right outcome when refurbishing your<a href="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Bali Hut or Gazebo</a>. Start with the removal of the existing roofing material i.e thatching or wood shingles etc. Followed by de-nailing the rafters. Then examine that the structure is sound and that there is no dry rot in the rafters.</p>
<h3>Determine the Appropriate Number of Shingles to Use</h3>
<p>Know how many shingles are required for the entire hut or gazebo. That is because you do not want to waste money by purchasing too many of them.</p>
<p>Typically, three bundles of shingles will cover 9 square meters. However, to obtain a precise figure, use shingle roofing calculators or seek professional guidance.</p>
<h2><strong>STEP #2: Installation</strong></h2>
<p>After ensuring that everything is in order, we can now begin the installation process.</p>
<h3>Give Emphasis to the Roof&#8217;s Layered structure.</h3>
<p>There are vital components beneath the asphalt shingle roof that are not visible. Yet, even if they are hidden, they play an essential role in creating a layer of protection.</p>
<h3>Seek Professional Assistance</h3>
<p>You might have seen DIY roof installation videos. While helpful, the East Coast Bali Huts and Gazebos team believes that you should put your trust in the professionals when it comes to installing asphalt shingles.</p>
<p>Hiring professionals ensures cost-effective, high-quality work, prompt service, and a product warranty. Thus, let the asphalt shingles installation professionals handle the rest after preparing your roof.</p>
<p>And if you are curious about how they do it?</p>
<ol>
<li>Roofers will begin installing the first layer by installing a marine-grade ply over the rafters. For a long-lasting roof, it is essential to use a marine grade ply and not a general use ply. Followed by a sarking to ensure waterproof protection. After which the powder coated aluminum drip edge will be installed.</li>
<li>After the drip edge and underlay have been installed, the next step is to attach flashing to areas that are attached against something, such as a chimney, walls, or other penetrations.</li>
<li>Once finished, they will begin laying the starter shingle. Expert contractors install various asphalt shingle types.</li>
<li>Following this, the final set of ridge shingles is installed to cover the ridge and hips of your roof.</li>
</ol>
<h2><strong>STEP 3: Follow-up Care</strong></h2>
<p>Before releasing your contractors, conduct a final inspection to ensure that your asphalt shingle roof is installed correctly. After you have double-checked that everything is in place, finish the process with the final cleanup.</p>
<h2><strong>Are you ready to give your gazebo a facelift with asphalt shingle installation?</strong></h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-21533" src="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Bali-hut-with-painted-V-groove-ceiling-300x225.jpg" alt="Bali hut with painted V-groove ceiling" width="350" height="263" />  <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-21527" src="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Asphalt-Shingles-300x225.jpg" alt="Asphalt Shingles" width="350" height="263" /></p>

<p>Every homeowner has unique needs and ideas for their roof, and asphalt shingles offer various rich architectural styles. They are available in different sizes and colours to complement any home&#8217;s décor.</p>
<p>To give you an idea, here are the two most popular designs for asphalt shingles roofing in Australia:</p>
<p>• <strong>3-Tab or Strip Shingle:</strong> The 3-Tab roof is made of one piece of material cut to look like three shingles.<br />
• <strong>Premium Shingle:</strong> This is a more expensive option. It adds both character and durability to your roof. When compared to other shingles, it is known for its impact resistance.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A stylish and functional deck can be a fantastic addition to every backyard. It offers an alfresco-style space for you to host parties for any special celebrations. It provides a relaxation area outside your home when you simply want to read and unwind.</p>
<p>More than anything, contemporary decks on the Gold Coast add value to any property. So, it is always a worthwhile investment to have your own deck. However, choosing the right decking on the Gold Coast can be quite tricky and overwhelming. With so many options available, it is no surprise that many homeowners feel confused about what sort of deck they should buy.</p>
<h2>Finding Perfect Decking Material</h2>
<p>One of the greatest factors to consider in choosing a deck is the material. There are various kinds of materials for decks with unique styles, and each type has its own set of benefits and disadvantages. To help you find the right material for your needs, we have made a comprehensive list of the most common types of decking materials.</p>
<h3>Natural Wood</h3>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-21412" src="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Natural-Wood-683x1024.jpg" alt="Natural Wood Decking" width="467" height="700" /></p>
<p>For people who want to avoid chemically treated lumber, investing in natural wood is a smart choice. However, natural wood is needs regular maintenance with oil at least once a year.. That is why Merbau and Kayu, Redwood and red cedar are good options as they have excellent resistant qualities.</p>
<p>While natural timber decks are always a great investment piece, they are more expensive than other materials. So, be keen on your research and find reliable deck builders on the Gold Coast to make your dream deck into reality.</p>
<h3>Composite Decking</h3>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-21413 size-full" src="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Composite-decking-1.jpg" alt="Composite decking" width="1399" height="446" srcset="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Composite-decking-1.jpg 1399w, https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Composite-decking-1-1280x408.jpg 1280w, https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Composite-decking-1-980x312.jpg 980w, https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Composite-decking-1-480x153.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1399px, 100vw" /></p>
<p>To select the right decking there is the alternative of composite decking. that will suit your budget, lifestyle needs, and aesthetic preference. It is resilient and has great durability. It will not crack, warp, or split, and does not need frequent oiling. Just an occasional scrub with water and soap. It comes in a range of colours and has a timber look alike finish.</p>
<h2>How to Build a Deck?</h2>
<p>When it comes to building your deck, it is best to leave it up to the experts. Most homeowners often overlook the cost of labour when installing a deck. That is why choosing a reputable deck builder who is transparent about the expenses is a must.</p>
<p>However, if you want to do it all on your own, you need to be keen on planning. A good and functional deck is one that is carefully planned. When you simply install a deck without planning, you run the risk of spending more money than you must.</p>
<p>For some homeowners, it starts with the planning but having a clear idea of your desired materials significantly helps in creating a design that suits your chosen materials. More than anything, you must also consider the space occupied by your outdoor furniture. You can always have a rough layout of what you want to achieve by researching some ideas and inspirations on the internet.</p>
<h2>Deck Maintenance</h2>
<p>When you want to build a <a href="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/decking/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">decking on the Gold Coast</a>, you also must consider the maintenance needs of your newly built space. If you are time-poor and busy with your work or business, you might want to think twice about installing a timber deck. But install a composite decking. To keep your decks in tip-top shape, you will need time to clean and oil the surface. Aside from that, you also must seal and resurface the wooden decks from time to time.</p>
<h2>Costs and Expenses</h2>
<p>The key factor in the costs of installing a deck always lies in its size and the lay of the land. The bigger the deck, the steeper the site, the more costly it could be. Building a small deck typically costs around $4000</p>
<p>However, you need to remember that this price guide is just a rough estimate and the actual costs of every deck will depend on your desired materials and finishes.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are proud to introduce a new range to our already extensive options of alternative roofing materials. A Gerard pressed metal roofing system!</p>
<p>A Gerard roof is made up of individual pressed steel panels installed using a unique fixing system that effectively locks them together to form a single structural unit. The result is a roof that’s stylish, lasts a very long time, and has survived some of the most extreme climates and environments on the planet.</p>
<p>The innovative design of the panels, high strength-to-weight ratio and unique fixing system make a Gerard roof safe and secure against almost anything nature serves up.</p>

<p><br class="break"></p>
<h2>Fire Proof</h2>
<p>When fires break out, significant danger comes from flying embers finding their way into the roof space of a house. But because Gerard roof panels are securely interlocked together, the risk of flying embers getting in is greatly reduced. </p>
<p>In fact, Gerard’s lightweight pressed steel roofs are considered among the most fire-safe roofs available, and are approved for use in Australia’s highest bush fire zone. (BAL–FZ).</p>
<p><br class="break"></p>
<p></p>
<h2>Cyclone-proof</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-21712 size-full" src="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Cyclone-proof.jpg" alt="Cyclone-proof" width="1000" height="657" srcset="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Cyclone-proof.jpg 1000w, https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Cyclone-proof-980x644.jpg 980w, https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Cyclone-proof-480x315.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw" /></p>
<p>Gerard Roofs’ steel panel roofing system has been proven to withstand wind loadings of more than 7.59kPa, which is equivalent to a wind speed (stronger than the wind force at the centre of a Category 3 tropical cyclone*).</p>
<p>It’s an ideal all around fantastic roofing finish!</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>The Origin of Bali Huts</h2>
<p>As the name suggests, Bali Huts originate from the Indonesian island of Bali. They are built with local materials such as thatched roofs, bamboo, and Alang Alang, This type of hut is a superior solution for combining aesthetics and functionality in the high wind condition and tropical climate of Bali.</p>
<p>And its popularity spread throughout other countries, including Australia. With the help of the authentic <a href="https://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alang-alang" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alang Alang</a> (a natural grass used for roof rethatching), it became one of Australia’s favourite outdoor structure materials.</p>
<p>Hence, it is safe to say that Bali’s exquisite tropical view extends through to the Australian lifestyle.</p>
<h2>The Advantages of Refurbishing and Rethatching Bali Huts</h2>
<p>With summer around the corner, you might just want to enjoy and relax in your backyard. And in that case, let East Coast Bali Huts and Gazebos help you immerse yourself in complete relaxation and wonder as we transform your outdoor space aesthetically and effectively.</p>
<h3>Benefit #1: Insulation</h3>
<p>When you want a hut or gazebo that can stay cool in summer, then a Bali hut rethatching is the one for you. For example, you may want to spend time outside, but sun exposure can cause UV damage. And don&#8217;t you ever underestimate the intensity of the sun&#8217;s heat; it can heat even the most galvanized roofs to the point where heat seeps beneath it.</p>
<p>Fortunately, there is a thatched Bali hut that can keep your gazebo 10 degrees cooler while also providing natural shade. When you choose refurbishing and rethatching your Bali hut, summer heat can&#8217;t stop you from enjoying your outdoor living area!</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Benefit #1: Diverse Range of Designs</h2>
<p>Every homeowner has unique needs and ideas for their roof, and asphalt shingles offer various rich architectural styles. They are available in different sizes and colours to complement any home&#8217;s décor.</p>
<p>To give you an idea, here are the two most popular designs for asphalt shingles roofing in Australia:</p>
<p>• <strong>3-Tab or Strip Shingle:</strong> The 3-Tab roof is made of one piece of material cut to look like three shingles.<br />
• <strong>Premium Shingle:</strong> This is a more expensive option. It adds both character and durability to your roof. When compared to other shingles, it is known for its impact resistance.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-21554 size-large" src="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Installation-Burleigh-Waters-1-1024x892.jpg" alt="Installation Burleigh Waters" width="1024" height="892" srcset="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Installation-Burleigh-Waters-1-980x854.jpg 980w, https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Installation-Burleigh-Waters-1-480x418.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw" /></p>
<h2>Benefit #2: Colour Variation</h2>
<p>Are you wondering how a roof can express your personality? Then worry no more! Asphalt shingles come in various colours that blend harmoniously with your surroundings, especially for outdoor living spaces.</p>
<p>Perhaps you want to create a Zen Garden or a tranquil gazebo. Whatever the case, the importance of your exterior roof decoration is equal to the significance of your house roofing. And thanks to the asphalt shingles&#8217; colour variation, you have the chance to bring to life your idea!</p>
<p>Yet, how do you make sure the colours are complementary? Request a recommendation from East Coast Bali Huts and Gazebos team, and we will recommend the best asphalt shingle roof that will undoubtedly match your home&#8217;s exterior.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Is your Bali hut alone in the hot and cold Australian weather, looking sad? Why not let your creative mind run wild? Consider the sound and beauty of a trickling Balinese water feature or the sophistication of a Balinese garden statue on the Gold Coast—what a sight to behold!</p>
<p>Adding garden statues and water features will undoubtedly improve the visual impact of your garden. Using these focal points, you can evoke the appropriate mood for your daily activities. Statues and Balinese garden statues in Gold Coast are one of the best complementary outdoor attractions for your Bali huts.</p>
<h2>5 Ingenious Ways to Use Statues and Water Features to Elevate Your Garden</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-21780 size-full" src="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/water-features-and-statues.jpg" alt="water features and statues" width="999" height="350" srcset="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/water-features-and-statues.jpg 999w, https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/water-features-and-statues-980x343.jpg 980w, https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/water-features-and-statues-480x168.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 999px, 100vw" /></p>
<p>Despite being aesthetically proven, you still need to learn how to design your garden. Will a relaxed and calm water fountain add to the beauty of your garden? Or will a garden statue visually enhance the beauty of your garden with Bali huts?</p>
<p>Whether you want to recreate or adapt the features, the wonders of garden elevation will undeniably fuel your creative mind.</p>
<h2>Inspiration for Balinese Water Features on the Gold Coast</h2>
<p>Let&#8217;s start with the dramatic experience that water features can add to your garden. Whether your outdoor space is small or large, a water-inspired design will enhance the Balinese feel of your place.</p>
<p>But first and foremost, select the feature that appeals to you. Do you enjoy the sound of running water? A bouncing light reflection in the water? Or you&#8217;d like to complement your Bali hut? Whatever you choose, it is entirely up to you.</p>
<p>Here are some examples of designs that perfectly balance beauty and functionality in one place:</p>
<h3>1. Relaxing Water Rill</h3>
<p>Create your outdoor space with the flowing sensations of surface water in a shallow channel—a versatile water rill. You can rely on a professional landscaper to create a relaxing atmosphere with the sound of moving water.</p>
<p>Just so you know, there are various innovations on how to design your water rill, whether the focal point of a level rill or the solid architectural line of a raised rill; there are no restrictions on how you design your outdoor space.</p>
<h3>2. Creative Raised Pond</h3>
<p>Do you enjoy designing a well-balanced garden that complements your Bali hut? Then consider incorporating a raised pond into your outdoor space. You can feel the Balinese vibes of an artificial raised garden pond with its natural way of enhancing the look of your garden.</p>
<h3>3. Innovative Garden Fountain</h3>
<p>Most of you may immediately think of garden fountains when you hear the phrase &#8220;water feature in the gold coast.&#8221; It&#8217;s no surprise, given that fountains are a popular focal point for most outdoor-loving homeowners.</p>
<p>You can listen to a strong gushing water flow or soft water trickling from a water fountain. Recreate a Balinese water feature with fountains if you want to add a dynamic design alongside your Bali huts!</p>
<h2>Inspiration for Balinese Garden Statues on the Gold Coast</h2>
<p>Now, let&#8217;s get some ideas for garden statues that can add a touch of magic, sophistication, and playfulness to your outdoor space.</p>
<p>However, before selecting the right statue design for your Balinese outdoor garden, ensure you understand proper placement and existing garden designs, such as your Bali hut. Hire a professional landscaper for garden design advice to ensure you get the correct measurements and designs.</p>
<p>In addition, while there are numerous garden statue designs,here are some ideas for your garden statues in Gold Coast:</p>
<h2>With the Right Bali Huts, You Can Release Your Creativity!</h2>
<p>Imagine having all of the <a href="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/water-features-and-statues/">water and Balinese garden features in Gold Coast</a> perfectly designed, but your Bali hut looks old and damaged—certainly a slap in the face to your goal of elevating your garden.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When it comes to functionality and beauty, <a href="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/asphalt-shingles-everything-you-need-to-know/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the asphalt shingle</a> tops the list of preferred roofing systems. It is not only visually appealing but also resistant to environmental damage. Yet, its advantages are useless if the proper installation procedure is not followed. That is why it pays to know the appropriate steps for asphalt shingles installation to save time and money and enjoy all its advantages.</p>
<h2><strong>What to do?</strong></h2>
<p>Here are the basic steps of asphalt shingles installation:</p>
<h2><strong>STEP #1: Preparation</strong></h2>
<p>Planning and preparation are essential in any installation process. And for the installation of asphalt shingles, here are the things to consider when planning:</p>
<h3>Examine the Roof</h3>
<p>To ensure the right outcome when refurbishing your<a href="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Bali Hut or Gazebo</a>. Start with the removal of the existing roofing material i.e thatching or wood shingles etc. Followed by de-nailing the rafters. Then examine that the structure is sound and that there is no dry rot in the rafters.</p>
<h3>Determine the Appropriate Number of Shingles to Use</h3>
<p>Know how many shingles are required for the entire hut or gazebo. That is because you do not want to waste money by purchasing too many of them.</p>
<p>Typically, three bundles of shingles will cover 9 square meters. However, to obtain a precise figure, use shingle roofing calculators or seek professional guidance.</p>
<h2><strong>STEP #2: Installation</strong></h2>
<p>After ensuring that everything is in order, we can now begin the installation process.</p>
<h3>Give Emphasis to the Roof&#8217;s Layered structure.</h3>
<p>There are vital components beneath the asphalt shingle roof that are not visible. Yet, even if they are hidden, they play an essential role in creating a layer of protection.</p>
<h3>Seek Professional Assistance</h3>
<p>You might have seen DIY roof installation videos. While helpful, the East Coast Bali Huts and Gazebos team believes that you should put your trust in the professionals when it comes to installing asphalt shingles.</p>
<p>Hiring professionals ensures cost-effective, high-quality work, prompt service, and a product warranty. Thus, let the asphalt shingles installation professionals handle the rest after preparing your roof.</p>
<p>And if you are curious about how they do it?</p>
<ol>
<li>Roofers will begin installing the first layer by installing a marine-grade ply over the rafters. For a long-lasting roof, it is essential to use a marine grade ply and not a general use ply. Followed by a sarking to ensure waterproof protection. After which the powder coated aluminum drip edge will be installed.</li>
<li>After the drip edge and underlay have been installed, the next step is to attach flashing to areas that are attached against something, such as a chimney, walls, or other penetrations.</li>
<li>Once finished, they will begin laying the starter shingle. Expert contractors install various asphalt shingle types.</li>
<li>Following this, the final set of ridge shingles is installed to cover the ridge and hips of your roof.</li>
</ol>
<h2><strong>STEP 3: Follow-up Care</strong></h2>
<p>Before releasing your contractors, conduct a final inspection to ensure that your asphalt shingle roof is installed correctly. After you have double-checked that everything is in place, finish the process with the final cleanup.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The long-awaited summer is just around the corner. However, enjoying summer with your old, dull Bali hut under the hot Aussie sun is frustrating; it simply ruins the experience. And you don&#8217;t want that, do you?</p>
<p>Well, you are in luck because East Coast Bali Huts and Gazebos provides the most innovative style of refurbishment with alternative roofing—roofing over thatching! Doesn&#8217;t that sound unique? Aside from <a href="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/re-thatching/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bali hut rethatching</a>, you can now improve your exterior roof while retaining the hut&#8217;s beautiful features.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s face it—<em>Alang-Alang</em> thatch has its distinct look and charm. Yet, while this method is appealing, it requires planning. Because as Taylor Swift&#8217;s song goes, <em>&#8220;if you fail to plan, you plan to fail.</em>&#8221; So, knowing the right factors to consider is critical.</p>
<h2>4 Things to Consider When Refurbishing with Alternative Roofing</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-21727 size-large" src="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_20200409_131011-2-1024x768.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="768" srcset="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_20200409_131011-2-980x735.jpg 980w, https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_20200409_131011-2-480x360.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw" /></p>
<p>Imagine having a summer-like experience in a Bali tropical paradise inside your huts, then enjoying the refreshing look of your outer roof&#8217;s tactile view outside. It&#8217;s like having two sceneries in one location!</p>
<p>Thus, to ensure that you can enjoy this ideal summer setting, consider the following before hiring professionals to refurbish your huts with alternative roofing:</p>
<h3>1. Know What You Want</h3>
<p>The first thing to consider is that you know what you need to do for your Bali Huts, which is to have another roofing over the thatching. Do you want to do this for the summer?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s important to note that this method provides long-lasting protection for your huts, making it a more permanent roof finish.</p>
<p>So, returning to the original question, “Is your creative mind prepared for this unique change for your old Bali Huts?” If so, let&#8217;s get your summer hut ready!</p>
<h3>2. Choose Your Roof Material</h3>
<p>Choosing a roofing material can be challenging. You have a variety of options, ranging from slates to <a href="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/asphalt-shingles-everything-you-need-to-know/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">asphalt shingles</a>. However, whatever you choose, strike a balance in functionality, aesthetics, and protection—because an eye-catching roof material is useless if it cannot withstand the elements.</p>
<p>And <a href="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">East Coast Bali Huts and Gazebos</a> team listens to your concerns, which is why we are proud to offer you a wide range of roofing materials! Here are some of them:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Asphalt Shingles:</strong> a very tactile organic look for the exterior of your roof;</li>
<li><strong>Gerard Pressed Metal:</strong> a classic look with increased resistance to outdoor elements such as hailstorms. It also offers a fashionable and secure roofing system.</li>
</ul>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-21729 size-large" src="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_20200409_131152-2-1024x768.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="768" srcset="https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_20200409_131152-2-980x735.jpg 980w, https://eastcoastbalihutsandgazebos.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_20200409_131152-2-480x360.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw" /></p>
<h3>3. Get the Right Colour</h3>
<p>If you&#8217;ve already decided on a roofing material, the next step is to pick on a colour. Would you prefer a dramatic black or an earthy brown? Or does your aesthetic favour soft-dark colours? Whatever you choose, ensure to match the colours of your re-roofing to the thatching on your Bali Hut.</p>
<p>And this summer, ensure that the colour of your roof will keep you cool under the sun&#8217;s scorching heat.</p>
<p>Consider this scenario: after swimming in your backyard&#8217;s Balinese feels swimming pool, you want to get some shade under your Bali Hut, only to discover that it&#8217;s twice as hot as the outside—that would frustrate you. So, pay attention to your colours for refurbishing with alternative roofing!</p>
<h3>4. Consider Your Budget</h3>
<p>Choose your options based on your budget. If you are still determining the cost of your roof&#8217;s materials, you can seek advice from the East Coast Bali Huts and Gazebos professionals. Our specialists, installers, and repairers can provide the best solution for refurbishing Bali huts or rethatching Bali huts.</p>
<p>Furthermore, keep in mind that professional Bali Huts and Gazebos designers prioritise the value of your money. Thus, consider your budget and installers to ensure you are ready for the summer! Otherwise, you&#8217;ll need more money during the summer vacation due to ugly and substandard products and installation.</p>
