➡️ What started 'metal' roofing? What was the first metal roof?? The exact origin of the 'first' metal roof is still under debate. Though we know copper roofing was the first material commonized for metal roofing, and many historic structures still wear their original greening copper caps to this day. 🏛 When the method of galvanization (the act coating steel or iron with zinc) was invented in 1836 in France, zinc coated roofs became extremely popular. In 1857, the first galvanized roof in America was installed on the U.S. Mint in New Orleans. 🏗 These materials were less expensive than the full copper roofs, and therefore much more accessible to the majority of Americans. Another variation was tin-plated iron. An early example of a standing seam tin roof appears on Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello. 🛢 After tin rolling mill production methods improved here in the states, tin shingle roofing began booming across the country, employing a wide variety of shapes and styles, including stamped shingles that can be found on many of Florida’s unique Victorian era homes. 🖌 The metal roofs are painted to keep them rust free and often they were painted a silver color or a dull green color to simulate aged copper. If a metal roof is painted regularly, they can last almost indefinitely.
