    What screws are best suited for copper

    • @WesternStatesMetalRoofing

      You will use stainless steel screws that are also copper coated so that they match.
      If you have standing seam panels it's a stainless steel clip and stainless pancake heads.
      They're hard to find, but we do sell them. Do you need screws? What type?
      Do you need a quote on the panels? What type?
      Thank you,
      Paul Rubio

      JYYCEE 67 is right on the money. You'll want to use a roofer who follows traditional European methods as American roofers tend to use techniques that rob the metal of it potential IE riveting and caulking/soldering as opposed to using complex folds and mechanical seams similar to this: czcams.com/video/gn7mQwKJgZw/video.html
      Copper finger clips can be used on panels under 10'. If you have a solid wood deck or if you have your installer install solid wood compound battens, copper nails will hold the roof down just fine. Several of the roofs shown in this video would have been fastened in a similar fashion.

      You just need stainless screws, and the screws shall not be visible on the construction

    there is a house in the next town over from me and they have a copper roof it was starting to "patina"? and turn green but then they had some guys over to clean and shine it. i didnt know it was a thing to let it age and turn green. i like it polished or patina but mostly polished if it dont get to be to much trouble.

    My wife and I live on the Philippines island of Siargao. Last December the island was hit by a level 5 cyclone/typhoon what ever you want to call it. Last year we bought some beach front land on the island. We are going to build next month. We are struggling with what sort of roof is best for our beach house. If we use metal,aluminium or copper will it rust or get blown off in a storm. Or is wood shingles the best. Any info would be great.

      Alu and copper would be the best choise for sea weather. It doesnt rust

    Hey I'm after some advice on my copper roof, I'm having a problem with needing to change my gutters every 5-6 years due to the copper reacting with zinc causing rust damage?
