Special Zinc design features

Unlike other metal roofs, zinc is an outstanding material option that has many notable innovations that make it one of the most desired roofing products that we offer.

Zinc does not only perform well on top of the building – it performs exceptionally well when mixed with other features of the property like panelling.

On top of fitting new zinc roofs, we have the ability and expertise to complete the look of your home as we can also introduce systems like zinc guttering, cladding and accessories.

ELC Zinc provides a sheer array of different colours, sheets and finishes.

All that we can do with zinc roofs:

  • Different shaped roofs can be developed due to the flexibility of zinc, which means we can form curves due to its ‘bendiness’.
  • Zinc roof types including steeple-like roofs, circles or triangles.
  • During the zinc fabrication stage textures including grooves, ripples and fish scales can be included.
  • We provide zinc roofs in several different colours such as grey, blue/grey, quartz, graphite and anthracite. We also have subtle colours such as quartz grey with a hint of blue, green or red, and bio-lacquered zincs that have a bold colour. Other colours include Azengar, Quartz-Zinc, Anthra-Zinc, Pigmento Red, Pigmento Brown, Pigmento Green and Pigmento Blue.
  • Standing seam roof is a common fixing method for zinc roofs and looks great.

How long do zinc roofs last?

One hundred years! Yes, that’s correct. Zinc roofs can offer one of the best durabilities making them a great choice for homeowners.

Our clients can feel more relaxed knowing that our warranties typically last 10 years or more.

Note that zinc does not react well to water runoff from cedar, larch and oak.

Are zinc roofs expensive?

The zinc material typically costs more than traditional tile roofs but that’s because its strength is almost unrivalled.

Prices for zinc roofs may increase for more complexed roof foundations where the roof structure is curved, pointed, or has multiple roof windows openings.

This can all be taken into consideration concerning your budget and architectural plans.

However, in terms of metal roofs, zinc is actually cheaper than other options like copper and aluminium.
