Advantages of Copper Roofing

The advantages of a copper roof installed by Rodd Roofing

No other metal roof can compare to the personality and toughness of copper roofing.

There are three key benefits to choosing this great metal roof option:

Modern and classic aesthetics; affordability while being long-lasting


Any building design can benefit from the aesthetics of copper; from classic to contemporary structures, copper roofing will provide warmth and beauty. Many architects favor copper roofing because it adds a lovely touch to any project, and because the roof will look lovely for many years even after the warm bronze tones change to an appealing green patina. Copper's natural weathering is what causes the color shift, although homeowners do have alternatives to either slow down or speed up the process.


A copper roof offers a durable and cost-effective roofing solution when it is correctly planned and installed. Due to the copper's low maintenance requirements, lengthy lifespan, and high salvage value, copper roofs have low life cycle costs. Contrary to many other types of metal roofing, copper does not require painting or finishing. Among all contemporary roofing materials, copper has one of the best levels of weather resistance, which contributes to its extended lifespan. The ease with which copper can be formed around structures and roofs with odd shapes is another significant benefit. This enables the homeowner to have curved roofs and domes. It enables the complete roof to be covered with the sturdy material, unlike over metal roofs.


Copper roofs are fantastic for any homeowner in Vermont since they add a warm, low-cost, and durable finish to a project.
