Zinc Roofing and cladding is growing more and more popular with many architects due to its enduring appearance, sustainability and performance. With small overheads, we can offer an excellent value roofing service to suit your budget.
Why is Zinc Roofing growing increasingly popular?
Zinc, and other hard metals generally, offer a long-lasting and modern solution to a range of building envelopes.
As with most metal roofing, attention to detail is crucial. Zinc is a remarkably versatile material. It can be formed to suit many applications and can be cut, folded, soldered. Most features such as gutters, valleys, and vents are easy to build in Zinc.
Furthermore, we can produce unique shapes such as a convex or concave curve which can change the look of any building. Traditional or modern buildings can be enhanced with the beautiful but straightforward lines that a Zinc roof and cladding has to offer.
If you want to create a statement or put your stamp on a building, Zinc is an excellent material to choose. So, if you are going to achieve well-defined lines – for both complex curves and sharp corners, Zinc is probably your most natural choice.
There are many different finishes of the Zinc
Natural zinc– Shiny in appearance till oxidisation starts. Natural Zinc is a material that builds on its patina over time. An excellent metal to use when looking to mix with other elements on an existing roof or building.
Quartz Zinc – A pre-finished covering giving a contemporary look, VM Quartz is a traditional option when considering a modern look to a building envelope.
Anthra Zinc is black, although it does have a complex texture, it provides a very modern finish. A conventional choice of finish which can be incorporated nicely with other VM colour options to offer project detail focus.
Zinc as cladding
Zinc looks excellent not only on the roof of the building – it also works brilliantly covering walls, and it can be formed into downpipes; it can be sculptured into unusual ornaments to add to the building, maintaining its unique character and best features.
Zinc is very durable.
Being immune to corrosion and ultraviolet light improves zinc endurance – it will last for up to a century. Besides, it is fully recyclable, which makes it environmentally friendly
So, to sum up:
- Flexible, excellent for unusual shapes
- Great metal for roofs, cladding and other accessories
- Durable (can last up to 100 years)
- Recyclable
- Many colours and finishes available
