COPPER ROOFING
Copper Roofing Professionals You Can Trust
When it comes to metal roofing, copper is one of the most unique materials. Its brilliant color makes it stand out, and it’s among the more splendid options in residential metal roofing. A copper roof adds curb appeal to the home and excellent resale value.
Kirkness Roofing Inc. also specializes in other metal roof types, including standing seam, corrugated, and steel roofs.
What is Copper?
Copper is a shiny, reddish-brown metal. It’s an element on the periodic table and is found naturally in the earth. It is soft and highly malleable, meaning it can be shaped into any design you want. When installed on a roof, it can be made to look like brick, tile, shingles, and much more.
Types of Copper Roofing
While copper roofing looks great on any building and can be molded into any design you want, there aren’t many types of copper-specific roofing, and each one has its own intended purposes.
Continuous
Continuous copper roofing is manufactured and cut precisely for the job. It’s installed without joints, seams, or other breaks. It’s the most expensive option because it involves the most time and effort to manufacture and install to exact specifications.
Copper Panels
Copper panels are cut in standard widths and installed with joints and seams. Sometimes the seams are crimped together, and other times they’re welded together during installation. It is less expensive than continuous copper roofing.
Copper Shingles
Copper shingles are low in cost and can be installed like other shingles. They’re secured with fasteners to prevent a reaction during contact with other metals. They’re elegant, stately, and look great on any home.
Advantages of a Copper Roof
Increased curb appeal
One of the primary benefits of using copper as a roofing material is its curb appeal. Its bright copper color shines brilliantly from afar, making your home stand out. It increases your home’s resale value and assures new buyers that they are getting a sturdy, long-lasting roof.
Durability
Copper is very strong and durable, being able to withstand the harshest weather conditions. Thanks to its durability, copper roofing will last for fifty years or more with regular professional repairs and maintenance.
Lightweight
Copper roofing is very lightweight, so it minimizes the stress you put on your home’s frame, which is critical during heavy snowfall like we see in Billings, MT every winter. The lightweight composition of copper roofing also makes it cheaper to install.
Impervious to mold, rot and fire
Copper has natural anti-microbial qualities that prevent it from growing algae, bacteria, mold, and other fungi. It’s also fire-proof, which is another significant advantage to all types of metal roofing.
Environmentally friendly
One of the most appealing things about metal roofing is its recyclable properties and the fact that it’s replenishable, sustainable, and eco friendly.

Reviews
Kirkness Roofing Inc
144 Moore Ln, Billings
- Throughout the entire process Jerome was supremely helpful. He was there anytime I had any questions or concerns and helped guide me through the entire process. He even accommodated for my weird graveyard work schedule since I normally … More wasn't awake during much of the day.
We had our roof, gutters, and a piece of facia replaced. The roofing and facia went smoothly and they were both quick and professional, but the company they contracted for the gutters not so much. Clearwater Seamless is who they contracted for our gutters and I would not recommend them. But, once again, Jerome helped me out and said next time they'll be sure to send out the other gutter company they work with. - Kirkness Roofing just replaced my roof — house, detached garage, and shed — and I couldn't be happier. I had wind damage twice over the winter and Jerome came out within hours both times to patch things up until it was warm enough … More for a full replacement. That kind of response is hard to find.
Jerome is honest, trustworthy, and just an all around great guy. The entire company is super professional with top notch customer service, and they use quality materials too. Be prepared to have extreme professionalism and not some fly-by-night roofer who is quick to collect payment and then vanishes.
The crew knocked out all three structures in 8 hours. Seriously impressive. What a great crew!
You will absolutely love Jerome!
See pictures of Jerome tarping my roof during the second wind event, the crew replacing my roof, and the finished product.
Highly recommend Kirkness Roofing — you won't regret it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Kirkness roofing completed our roof last week. It was an amazing experience and Jerome was so helpful every step of the way. We have a very large roof and it was completed in record time. The follow- through by all of the staff was excellent. … More I’m so glad we went with Kirkness because of their customer service and the education they provided. Great job!!
- There aren't enough stars on this scale!
I would give Kirkness Roofing 10 Stars! Three hailstorms left us with damage to the roof, siding and several windows on our home. We asked Andy to come take a look at it, and from that moment … More on we've been so thankful we did. He worked closely with the insurance company and, imagine this, our insurer told us how much they really like working with Kirkness due to their professionalism. If that's not a solid recommendation I don't know what is!
There were several sub-contractors on this job, as the entire exterior of the home was re-done, including all doors and windows replaced. Every person who worked on this project did a great job: they knew what they were doing and completed the work expertly and efficiently.
The work was completed on time, on budget (down to fifty-one cents!) and (much to my relief) to the satisfaction of my husband, who has quite a bit of construction experience in his lifetime.
We can't thank Andy and all his crew enough for the fine work they did for us! - I hired Kirkness Roofing about 5 years ago to roof my house. I called several companies and was put off by some or their prices and how they explained their process, didn't hold up to Kirkness. They did the work in a timely manner, … More at a reasonable cost and cleaned up all the nails and any trash at the end.
I recently had a tree blow over, landing on my roof and breaking my skylight. Wind and debris were blowing through my bathroom. I called Kirkness and they came out to my house within a couple hours to seal things up. Super nice guys!
Jerome came out to give me an estimate on the repair. He was thorough, knowledgeable, patient and very up front about what they could get for a replacement, the cost and when the job would be finished.
Andy and his crew have always been responsive, patient, thorough and have done a great job at a good price. They are extremely trustworthy and get the job done right. - We had wind and hail damage to one of my properties and upon inspection we were told the entire roof and the gutters needed replaced. I called several companies for an estimate, but Kirkness was the only one that sent someone out to meet … More with us. Jerome came to the property and he was great to work with! He was the reason we chose Kirkness. Jerome went above and beyond from start to finish! The crew that came out for both the roof and the gutters were fast and very professional. The cleanup was very thorough! I would highly recommend them to anyone needed roofing work!
- This is an outstanding company!
This is what I experienced: honesty,
fairness, excellent communication and quality workmanship. Co-owner Andy negotiated tirelessly with my insurance company to insure that they honored my claim for hail … More damage. He is the reason that I now have new roofs on my residence and outbuildings. Thank you Andy and the entire Kirkness Roofing staff! - Harley with Kirkness Roofing was awesome and very professional! Had a shingle tear off completely near The roofs Ridge vent. Had to call a roofing company as I just had shoulder surgery and couldn’t do the repair myself. Called a different … More local company first which had an automated answering system. Based on great reviews called Kirkness Roofing.l next. Person answered the phone immediately. Explained the problems regarding my roof and scheduled a free consultation/inspection. Harley came out inspected the roof and put up a temporary protective barrier over area needing repaired. Scheduled the repair as they are a few days out. After Harley left immediately received a confirmation email very professional company and they stand behind their work. Was a little anxious about having a roofing company come out because roofs aren’t cheap. Harley with Kirkness Roofing surprised us by their kindness and clear explanation of what needed to be done and made me feel confident in their services. I don’t usually do reviews but this is one of those times worth taking time to help spread the word!!!
