Copper work and accents is a necessary partner to slate and tile roofing systems. A durable but malleable substance is necessary to fill in the gaps created by the stone tiles. It had to be something with several characteristics - formability (malleability), beauty, and durability - able to compete with the longevity of slate. Copper was a winner. It has been used for more years than we count as a form for art, and brings its aesthetics to be a perfect match in this setting.
Copper work is a specialized art-form. It requires expert planning and installation, not trained in the typical roofer. This is a true specialty of the roofing industry. We have been trained and have the correct tools and equipment available for any of your copper roofing restoration or installation needs. |
