HOW LONG DOES A COPPER ROOF LAST?
Copper is one type of metal that is renowned worldwide for its durability, there are few other metals that can compete with the amount of time it can last in domestic environments. Between 60 and 100 years is the usual figure agreed in the roofing industry, and this is without high levels of maintenance and repairs being involved to prolong its lifespan.
You may have noticed certain older buildings (even stemming back to the 1800s) which contain copper as the main element in their roofs, which just proves how truly long-lasting this material is.

AURUBIS NORDIC INSTALLATION
JTC Roofing Services only uses the highest quality copper roofing materials for our projects. For a long time, copper has been used for roofing, eaves, and roof drainage in modern and traditional buildings. It works perfectly with other natural materials and develops a natural patina over time. It starts changing colour within a few days and eventually turns to chestnut brown, chocolate brown, and finally, a green or blue patina in coastal areas. This patina enhances its appearance and provides protection against corrosion. If damaged, it can even repair itself, ensuring long-lasting durability.
