Last year our architect specified a pre-patina copper, standing seam roof for a house we're building in Vermont. The price of copper has escalated so dramatically that it's no longer a practical consideration. Do you know of an alternative that will give us the look of copper patina and decent longevity?

There are some companies that make a pre painted metal that simulates the patina. Try contacting our member manufacturers in your area that provide standing seam. I believe Engler may have that colour.
