Working on historic homes Mr. Wells was able to learn how the original craftsmen applied their techniques. The quality of workmanship was outstanding, and after researching and learning the ways that things were done he determined that we would apply this knowledge to our products and installations. Time proven methods have served our clients well, whether we are working on new construction or on a restoration project. Wells Roofing strives to provide quality craftsmanship on every project we undertake.
Fabrication covers a broad range of areas for Wells Roofing. All of our fabrication is done with copper because of its malleability, strength, longevity, and aesthetics. Copper flashing that is installed correctly will last up to 100 years. We have fabricated a large number of custom chimney wind screens and stove hoods which are very popular because they are aesthetically pleasing and blend with a large number of building materials. Copper counter tops are becoming desirable because of the antimicrobial properties in copper, whether inside or out they will last a lifetime.
The Greeks, Romans and Chinese used clay roof tiles on their homes and important buildings dating back to around 10,000 B.C.; the Renaissance revived the practice and we continue the tradition. Clay is a naturally occurring mineral, it has a proven track record of our performing virtually any other natural roofing material. It is 'Green' environmentally sustainable, it affords a fire proof covering for your home and looks even more beautiful. Concrete roof tiles offer durability, beauty, and value to the roofing industry.
Copper offers a character and durability that no other metal roof can match. Its appearance can complement any style of building, from the traditional to the modern. When properly designed and installed, a copper roof provides an economical, long-term roofing solution. Unlike many other metal roofing materials, copper requires no painting or finishing. Copper's resistance to the elements ranks among the highest of modern roofing materials. Outdoors, copper with its warm bronze tones will gradually attain an attractive, stable patina caused by the natural weathering process.
