THE HISTORY OF COPPER ROOFING

Copper use by man is traceable back about 60 centuries.  Here is a fun fact: Did you know the Romans are known to have begun the art of working with it? Today, copper roofing goes hand in hand with tile and slate roofing due to its long service life.

DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES

A roofer must understand the traditional folding and forming techniques in conjunction with centuries old installation practices.  Copper roofing is most common for interlocking panel flat roofs with soldered seams. This style of copper roofing can conform to many shapes and sizes as required, and a roofer is not always experienced on how to properly install copping roofing.

SO MANY OPTIONS

A roofing specialist needs to be able to work with many ways that copper can be used on a roof.  Copper bay window tops, copper dormer tops, copper pockets, copper valleys, copper wall flashings, copper chimney flashings, copper finials and copper crestings are a sampling of the copper roofing options available.   Make sure your roofer not only talks about these topics, but can prove they really know what they are talking about.

REPAIRS, UPGRADES OR EVEN A NEW COPPER ROOF

Sometimes Copper Roof Repairs can be required after a storm.   Other times a Copper Valleys and Flashing will be part of a new roof replacement. And rarely will a roofer be able to show off the most unique situation of installing a New Entire Copper Roof.   There is simply no better way than to learn about a roofer’s understanding of copper without really digging into their experience.    The variables are just too much and you do not want to second guess whether someone is talking just to talk, but not able to guarantee the work long after they leave your home.

YOU INVEST IN THE EXPERIENCE WITH PROMISES

A true professional is not looking to negotiate based on what the competition is doing, especially if that competition is not building a sustainable business for the long term.  Regardless of the size of the project, especially when smaller, there are still aspects of running a business including scheduling, labor, gas, truck maintenance, travel delays, etc.  We value ourselves sometimes even more than a doctor who has the luxury of eliminating many of these topics when you come to see them, and then you even sit in a waiting room.  In addition to our experience, living up to our promises on a consistent basis creates even more value, for which we expect people to invest a little more.

IT BEGINS WITH THE FIRST COMMUNICATION

There are many independent roofers who begin by quickly providing a quote without studying the real need of the client. Our approach to running the business is taking a moment to understand the conditions of a roof before coming up with a price.  We do not treat this casually.  To adequately address pricing and timing for a roof repair or new roof, we need to take into consideration of all variables based on current promises, urgent versus non-urgent matters and resources that a customer needs to simply trust us to get the best possible guidance on the roofing issue.  That trust begins as soon we answer the phone.

NO PROJECT TOO BIG OR SMALL

Sometimes it is hard to appreciate the specialty of installing a New Slate Roof, New Tile Roof or New Copper Roof. The same goes for the many Roof Repairs that we work on.  Many think of being a roofer simply encompasses getting a ladder to replace a few tiles and we are done.  Or many think we just pull up, look at the roof from the street, then give an estimate on what it will take to do the job.  That is the furthest from the truth.   From fixing leaks to replacing an entire new roof, our mission is to provide the finest home maintenance and remodeling services to our clients.

SHARING CUSTOMER REVIEWS IS EVEN MORE IMPORTANT TO US

Of course we appreciate written reviews, but having professional customer reviews allows you to appreciate how we look at our clients, from the project itself to the attention to detail.   Of course everyone wants to say they have happy customers, but we like to directly introduce you to them for new customers to appreciate what we stand for.
