The Advantages of "Engineered"
Edition #88: Winter 1999
Factory-fabricated copper roofing offers many important advantages over roofing fabricated on site from rolls of copper sheeting. The main advantages are lower cost and speed of installation. In addition, the suppliers of engineered roofing provide desirable warranties for their products--typically 25 to 30 years. Fabricators also provide training and on-site guidance for the professional roofers certified to install their products.
