Fielders Nailstrip makes its residential mark 

This residential project in Goodwood, South Australia, has recently featured Fielders Finesse Nailstrip roofing and walling solution; a project producing modern architectural brilliance within this inner-city Adelaide suburb.

Working in collaboration with builder, Craig Speziali, and architects, Salt E House and Grieve Gillett Anderson, the use of Nailstrip provides a dynamic and contemporary result, with the residence’s exteriors integrating COLORBOND® steel Windspray® and COLORBOND® steel Ironstone® finishes. To see more of this project, visit http://bit.ly/2ea0GnI.

The Nailstrip roofing and walling panel offers a striking and unique solution for any residential construction project, with the versatility of the profile being just one of the many reasons its popularity has increased nationally among builders and architects.  

Available in a range of Colorbond® finishes, the Nailstrip profile is one of the most elegant and sleek solutions offered in the Fielders Finesse range.
