Why Choose Core
Why Denver Homeowners Choose Copper Roofing
Unmatched durability and lifespan
Copper roofs last 50+ years with minimal maintenance—far outlasting traditional asphalt or even other metal options. We’ve seen copper installations from decades past still performing beautifully, protecting homes through Colorado’s extreme weather cycles. Your copper roof becomes a legacy investment your family will benefit from for generations.
Natural beauty that evolves
Unlike roofs that fade or degrade, copper develops a protective green patina that only enhances its character over time. Homeowners love the distinctive look and the fact that it complements both historic and contemporary architecture. No paint touch-ups, no color fading. The patina itself protects the underlying copper from further oxidation.
Superior weather performance in Colorado’s climate
Denver’s high altitude means intense UV exposure, rapid temperature swings, and frequent hail. Copper’s natural malleability allows it to expand and contract without cracking, and its antimicrobial properties resist algae and moss growth—common problems on Colorado roofs.
Certified expertise you can trust
Our Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor status reflects training and accountability. We follow manufacturer specs exactly, and every copper installation includes our 5-year workmanship warranty plus the manufacturer’s coverage. We’ve completed hundreds of high-end copper projects across the Denver metro.
Locally owned, community-driven craftsmanship
We’ve been part of the Denver metro for 25+ years, serving neighbors like you in Aurora, Englewood, and beyond. Copper roofing is a significant investment, and we treat it that way—as a partnership. When problems arise (rare with copper), we’re here—not a national call center.
Long-term value and investment protection
While copper requires higher upfront investment, it delivers exceptional long-term value. No replacement costs for decades, minimal maintenance, and increased home value make copper roofing a smart financial choice for homeowners planning to stay in their homes long-term.

Our Process
Our Copper Roofing Installation Process
Comprehensive Inspection & Structural Assessment
Your roof’s future depends on a solid foundation. We begin with a detailed inspection of your home’s current roof structure, framing, ventilation, and flashing. Copper is heavy—typically 3–4 pounds per square foot—so we verify that your roof deck can support it. We also check for any water intrusion, rot, or structural issues that must be addressed before installation begins.
Design & Material Selection
Copper roofing comes in several styles: standing seam, shingles, or custom panels. Working with you and your architect or designer (if applicable), we’ll recommend the best profile for your home’s appearance and your budget. We discuss seam spacing, panel dimensions, and expansion/contraction expectations.
Structural Reinforcement (If Needed)
If your roof deck cannot safely support copper’s weight, we’ll reinforce it with additional framing. This is rare on newer homes but common on older colonial or Victorian properties. We ensure your roof structure meets current building codes and is properly documented for permit and inspection.
Underlayment, Ventilation & Base Preparation
Before copper goes down, we install high-quality underlayment to manage any water that gets past the copper layer. We ensure ventilation is optimized—copper roofs should never be installed directly over solid sheeting without an air gap. We also prepare the base by removing the old roofing and ensuring the deck is clean and smooth.
Copper Installation with Precision Seaming & Flashing
This is where expertise shines. Our installers have years of experience working with copper’s unique properties—its malleability, thermal expansion, and patina development. We install panels or shingles following manufacturer specs exactly, ensuring proper overlap, seam spacing, and fastening. Every flashing detail receives the same precision.
Gutter System, Drainage & Final Inspection
Copper roofing is often paired with copper gutters and downspouts for a unified system. We install gutters to slope properly and position downspouts to drain away from your foundation. We conduct a thorough final inspection—checking for gaps, loose fasteners, proper sealing, and water flow.
