"Layman Construction was very professional. Appreciated meeting with Robert after he visited and assessed our needs to discuss options. Work was completed quickly and our property was kept clean and safe during the week or so it took to complete the job. Our roof, although the house is not large, has many peaks and valleys including a large stone chimney, making the job a less than straight forward.Compared 3 other contractors before deciding on Layman. Layman offered the best value given their reputation and experience. Very happy with our new roof! The Layman team was great to work with!"

"Andy and Troy, and the entire work crew for that matter, were very friendly and easy to talk with. T&B was responsive to my inquires. The quality of work was top shelf. I have an old big diary barn that needed a new metal roof. I am very happy I found and used this contractor. The roof decking was in poor shape, so the purlins had to be nailed directly to the roof rafters. Andy used 5" nails that had to be hammered by hand (no air nailers). I'm not sure how many contractors would have gone to this effort. The crew took extra care to locate the rafters and make sure the purlins were securely nailed to the rafters. The installation of the metal and roof valleys was very nicely done ... looks great. I'm super satisfied. Great contractor. If you have the opportunity to have this contractor do your work ... take it."

FAQs for metal roofing installation and replacement projects in Cortland, NY

Copper roofs can last 100 years or more, so you’re likely never to need another replacement. Regular maintenance, including annual inspections and occasional cleaning, keeps them in top shape. Work with a licensed roofer for any repairs or inspections to be sure the roof stays watertight and performs as expected.

Cleaning a copper roof averages $460, sealing costs an average of $3 per square foot, and broader repairs cost an average of $6,500.While those figures may seem steep compared to simple maintenance, they’re still far less than the cost of a complete replacement. Staying on top of annual cleanings and quick fixes helps keep costs down and allows the roof to reach its 100-year lifespan.

That green hue is a natural patina that forms as copper reacts with air and moisture. In coastal areas, it can appear in five to seven years; in dry regions, it may take up to 14. The patina shields the copper, so letting it develop is perfectly fine. If you prefer the shiny look, you can have a pro apply a clear sealant and recoat it as needed.

You can paint a copper roof, but it will block the natural patina and may shorten the roof’s lifespan. Once paint goes on, future upkeep becomes more involved—you’ll need to scrape and repaint every few years. Most homeowners skip painting and opt for cleaning or a clear sealant to keep the copper looking its best.

Copper holds up well in nearly every climate. In a humid region, it naturally resists fungus, moss, and algae. In snowy or windy areas, it sheds precipitation and stays firmly in place, as long as it’s installed with room to expand and contract. That flexibility helps the roof stay leak-free through temperature swings and harsh weather year after year.
