What gauge copper do you use for a roof like that? And does it have any kind of clear on it or do the customers want it tarnished for the patina?

It goes by wt. instead of gauge. We use 16 or 20oz. Mostly 20 or what we call soft copper. It comes in 100# roll.s that are either 20 or 24 inch wide. I've never used or seen any with any type of finish. Just raw soft copper. And most what the patina.

Holy shit! That's a lot of cash.

Looks awesome

Thanks...

Can you get a windstorm certification on the copper roof's you install? Where are you located?

Not on Traditional but, when properly installed, it will not blow off without taking structure with it. There are some still around that are pushing 200 years old. Now, you can how ever with Pan Formed but, it's a sorry system IMO...

I can drive 4 1 1/4 tacs faster then you can say HOLY SHIT BATMAN. And my gun doesn't run out of nails, or jam. And my compressor doesn't run out of gas...no breakers kicking or belts slipping.

Back years ago, they would have a sponsored "nail off" every year in Va Beach....I never went but one of the guys on my crew did a few times...He finished 2nd every time behind the same fellow. His name was Dave...Ol' Dave was fast but I was faster. Just never felt that I had to "prove" myself. And still don't.

You gotta go to the box of hand bangers to refill your bags, though.

I bet i can put 4 nails in under 1 second. Actually , that is a fact. My belt holds 10 racks of nails and my compressor has never failed. Always have plenty of backups anyways. I will still take the bet and give you 2:1

But i get your money if i win right?

Make it $1000 cash and I will line up 40' of shingles. I will record myself going and putting 4 nails in each shingle and post it. Gang does the same. If he doesn't do it faster, $1000 in my pocket, $2000 in yours if he's faster.

nope. Bare roof, 12 bundles of shingles at the peak. At the start both set up ladders and get to work.
