The Durability and Beauty of Copper Accents

Copper accents are one of the greatest gems of modern roofing. Having a shiny beautiful roof is a lifelong dream for many, but imagine how much a gold roof would cost… That’s where copper comes in! It is as beautiful as gold but much cheaper and easier to work with. It also lasts incredibly long; copper accent roofs have been around for hundreds of years!

A beautiful aesthetic is the trademark of the copper accent. Copper shines so bright in sunlight and reflects beautifully. Your roof would be the talk of the town! There is no competition in the business that shines like copper accents. Not only does it shine, but it also adds a nice natural look. Copper is a unique metal in the roofing business and it has properties that no other roof does. This includes a natural oxidation process completely unique to copper that creates patinas that can turn green and blue. This process can be stopped or halted at any time with the right protective measures. This means you can style your copper to look as old or as new as you want it to, with all the natural look!

When talking about copper, we cannot forget that it is a metal. No other metal is used as well is copper is to make roofing. Copper is light weight which makes it not too heavy to be at the top of your home, but durable enough to resist most storms and other natural damage. Copper is fire resistant and immune to bacteria and other fungi that come naturally on most surfaces. This gives your home an added layer of protection to keep you and your family safe. On top of that, that means no scrubbing the pesky bacteria away!

Copper is both durable and incredibly beautiful. These are not all the benefits of copper, but they sure help copper stand out in the roofing community. Copper has been used for roofing for hundreds of years and it’s sure to make any home look amazing! Contact us at VR Roofing and check out our amazing examples of our timeless copper accents.
