Zinc has proven to be the most popular choice from our client base, closely followed by Copper, Stainless Steel and Lead.
As Zinc is a 100% natural product it boasts a great asset to the environment proving to be very eco-friendly. After completion of installation, another great benefit is that the maintenance of zinc is extremely low as the zinc is a natural product and will weather to its surroundings.
Zinc is a malleable and flexible material enabling it to be a great product to be considered by architects for architectural building and construction work.
Zinc is widely used due to its long life span - up to and around 70 years.
Available in many different colours - enabling you the client to choose out of a wide range of colours that will be best suited to your particular needs.
Copper dates back to ancient times, being one of the oldest used metals known to man. Tried and tested, copper has proved not only to be corrosively resistant but very aesthetically pleasing and long lasting.
Copper roofs initially demonstrate their beauty and character with a great bronze colour, which, given time, and natural weathering process transforms beautifully into the more distinctive green patina colour.
Being such a reliable and prestigious roofing material, copper has shown to be used traditionally as well as a highly chosen modern material choice on both interior and exterior applications.
Copper is very malleable making it a great material to use for overcoming irregular shapes and curved details such as domes, concave and convex roof structures, making it a reliable choice by architects across the world.
