Metal roofing has been in use for hundreds of years and has the longest lifespan of any roofing material.
Zinc is amongst the most sustainable metals used in construction and has been used in roofing applications for over 200 years. It naturally forms a stable corrosion resistant patina on its surface after installation and can last up to 100 years with no signs of degradation. This patina is self-repairing meaning any surface scratches fix themselves leading to a very low maintenance regime in comparison to other roof materials.

Whether a complex roof like the one shown above, or a simple flat roof, the method of construction is essentially the same. The initial substrate would be tongue & groove or 18mm plywood, covered by a liner material to reduce friction between the copper and the wood. There are then two basic fitting methods: the roll baton or standing seam methods. When using the roll baton method, batons are securely fixed to the deck, forming the bays which are a characteristic feature of these roofs. The copper bays are formed to the exact specifications of your roof, and fixed into the prepared bays.
