Project Highlights: Petrie Terrace Transformation

Project Petrie Terrace is a shining example of how the right cladding solution can completely transform a property. Located in the heart of Brisbane, just behind the iconic Suncorp Stadium—home of the Brisbane Broncos—this project stands out for its combination of modern design, premium materials, and expert installation. The client approached MyCladders with a vision for a durable, attractive façade that would hold its own in one of Brisbane’s most vibrant and recognisable neighbourhoods.

Initially, our client was drawn to Corrugated Iron, a classic and cost-effective option commonly used in Queensland homes and commercial buildings. However, at MyCladders, we believe in exploring every possibility to ensure our clients get the best result for their investment. After a thorough discussion about their goals, we suggested Trimdeck as an alternative. This profile offers a more architectural and luxe appearance, all while remaining within a “base” level price range. The decision to go with Trimdeck meant the client could enjoy a high-end finish without exceeding their budget—a win-win for both style and value.

Smart Choices: From Corrugated to Contemporary

Every successful project starts with clear communication and a willingness to explore new ideas. When our Petrie Terrace client first contacted us, they had Corrugated Iron in mind, attracted by its timeless look and affordability. During our design consultation, we took the time to walk them through the benefits of Trimdeck wall cladding. Trimdeck’s defining feature is its crisp, clean lines, which instantly give any building a more contemporary and sophisticated feel.

We explained that, while Corrugated Iron is a reliable choice, Trimdeck could elevate the property’s street appeal and deliver a more distinctive, architectural finish. Best of all, the cost difference was minimal, making it an accessible upgrade for clients who want to achieve a luxe look on a realistic budget. Our client appreciated this transparent, consultative approach and decided to move forward with Trimdeck. This collaborative decision-making process is central to how we work at MyCladders—we’re here to guide, advise, and help our clients make choices they’ll love for years to come.

Material Magic: Colorbond® Finishes That Shine

The choice of materials was crucial in bringing the Petrie Terrace vision to life. For this project, we supplied and installed Trimdeck wall cladding in two standout Colorbond® Steel finishes: Aries® and Woodland Grey®, both sourced from Lysaght, Australia’s trusted supplier of quality steel products. Colorbond® Steel Aries® delivers a fresh, modern energy, catching the light and accentuating the building’s lines, while Woodland Grey® provides depth, contrast, and timeless appeal.

This combination not only enhances the visual impact of the property but also ensures long-lasting durability and minimal maintenance—essential features for Brisbane’s ever-changing weather conditions. Our installation team paid close attention to every detail, from precise measuring and cutting to careful fitting and finishing. The result is a façade that’s both beautiful and built to last, with clean lines and seamless transitions that showcase the quality of our workmanship.
