Coping

Metal coping refers to the protective covering or cap that is installed on top of a parapet wall or a free-standing wall to prevent water infiltration and other forms of damage. It serves as both a functional and visual element in building construction. The primary purpose of architectural sheet metal coping is to direct water away from the top of the wall, preventing moisture from seeping into the building and causing potential structural issues.

Flashing

Using sheet metal materials to create protective barriers and seal in building construction, flashing primarily is to prevent the infiltration of water, air, and other elements at critical junctures and transitions within the building envelope. Flashing plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of roofs, chimneys, and windows by directing water away from vulnerable areas and preventing potential damage or deterioration. It is an essential component of weatherproofing and waterproofing strategies in architectural design.

Alpha Metal Roofs fabricates and installs your choice of metal panels or sheets onto the building’s framework to create a protective and visually appealing envelope.
