Metal Roofing

The same uncompromising quality standards are also given to each of these disciplines. Copper roofs tend to expand and contract frequently during weather changes. When this happens, the fasteners can become loose and require repair. This should not cause concern, but must be managed to ensure the safety of your home.

Benefits of Copper Roofing

• Curb Appeal – Copper is an attractive metal roofing material. If you aim to increase your home’s resale value, a copper roof could be an ideal choice.
• Durability – Copper roofs are strong, lasting up to 50 years or even more with regular repairs and maintenance. The metal is highly resistant to fire, hail, and mildew.
• Weight – Copper is a lightweight material, which is a clear benefit when installed as your main roofing structure. Lightweight roofs do not put as much stress on your home’s internal structures as heavier materials such as steel, clay tiles, or wood shakes. This is especially important during heavy snowfalls.
• Efficiency – Most metal roofs are energy efficient, as they reflect light instead of allowing heat into the home. Copper is no exception. Installing a copper roof can help you control heating and cooling costs.

LEAD ROOFING-
Benefits of Lead Roofing
An extremely flexible material, lead sheeting can be pulled taut and stretched around tricky shapes and areas for total coverage. Lead expands and contracts depending on the temperature.

A good quality, lead roof can last as much as three times longer than other roofing materials. As an extremely strong and resilient metal, lead is resistant to any type of corrosion.

Lead has one of the highest recycling rates in the world, and is one of the most recycled metals.

ZINC ROOFING
Zinc is a high-quality, sustainable metal that has been used in roofing for more than 150 years. Since zinc roofs are extremely durable and versatile, it’s no surprise that zinc roofing costs are more than standard asphalt and other roofing materials. Luckily, you can reduce your zinc roofing prices.
