Complete your home with quality street appeal
LUTUM roofing provides a high-quality look and finish to your home.
As the single largest surface area, your roof not only protects, but also provides immediate ‘street-appeal.’
Whether you are building a new home or renovating an existing pitched roof, LUTUM’s range of unique designs and colour profiles gives choice to individualise and complement your entire home.
Choose from LUTUM’s attractive Concrete or exceptional and long-lasting Terracotta and Designer Ceramic tiles.
LUTUM concrete tiles are made from sand and cement that gets stronger with age.
LUTUM Terracotta and Designer Ceramic tiles are made from natural Australian clay resulting in a strong, yet lightweight roofing material, of exceptional quality and colour that never fades.
LUTUM Roof Tiles have been manufactured to the highest Australian standards for over 50 years, which is why we confidently provide a customer guarantee of 20 years on all LUTUM concrete tiles, 50 years on LUTUM Terracotta tiles and 60 years on LUTUM Designer Ceramic tiles.
To ensure quality standards, LUTUM maintains a fully staffed Quality Control Laboratory where LUTUM tiles are tested for weight and dimensional stability, transverse strength, water absorption, permeability and colour consistency.
Finishing your home’s appearance with LUTUM roof tiles provide a great investment that will add value to your home for its entire life.
Long-lasting performance to protect you and your family
An Australia made LUTUM roof is designed to perform and protect you against our harsh weather conditions for its entire life.
Compared to other roofing, a LUTUM roof is super quiet. The density of LUTUM tiles helps reduce external sounds such as aircraft and road noise and particularly rain, hail and wind. In fact, LUTUM roof tiles have potential sound reduction twice that of steel roofing.
The weight of a LUTUM tiled roof reduces the impact of uplift pressures when compared to lighter materials such as steel roofing which can often lift in severe winds.
LUTUM tiles are salt-safe and frost-resistant, making them suitable for all locations, including adjacent to our Australian marine coastline - conditions that can prove damaging to steel roofing.
LUTUM roof tiles are made from non-combustible materials and can be safely used in bushfire prone areas and due to their non-toxicity are safe for collection of rainwater.
Importantly a LUTUM pitched roof also helps to recycle the air within your home which reduces harmful condensation and better allows airborne contaminants (such as Covid19) to escape.
Once a LUTUM roof is installed, it is low maintenance as tiles never rust or corrode. If your roof ever is damaged then individual tiles can be easily replaced.
A LUTUM roof provides confidence and peace-of-mind for long-lasting performance and protection of you and your family.

A pitched LUTUM roof is cool & sustainable
LUTUM roofing is sustainable now and into the future.
LUTUM tiles are remarkably sustainable and have a lower total embodied energy compared to other roofing materials.
The thermal mass of a pitched LUTUM roof when used with sarking, solar design principles and wind-driven ventilation (‘whirly birds’) helps keep your home cooler in summer and warmer in winter, reducing your need for air-conditioning and heating, your power costs and your environmental footprint.
A pitched LUTUM roof also helps reduce the urban heat island effect of suburban landscapes by better radiating heat (solar emittance) while the use of lighter colour tiles also helps to reflect the sun (solar reflectance).
Sourced from local natural raw materials their manufacturing requires little processing and is highly efficient with minimal onsite wastage.
Being locally made and transported, LUTUM tiles have a lower transportation carbon footprint than imported materials.
LUTUM tiles can be 100% recycled at the end of their life. Once installed, a well maintained Lutum roof can last for a lifetime, so you are taking a responsible decision that is helping you protect and sustain our environment.
The energy efficient benefits of a pitched tiled roof
Thermal performance of your roof is a critical factor for the wellbeing of our planet and the comfort of your household. LUTUM ‘cool’ tile roofs substantially minimise the amount of heat transformed from the absorbed solar energy. Unlike steel, LUTUM tiles stay cooler as they have superior thermal emittance properties that allow more solar energy to escape before heating up your home and the atmosphere.
