Copper
Many of our cupolas feature copper roofs, a great material for a long-lasting and stunning look. Copper has natural elements that prevent decay, making it a great choice to resist damage and stay looking great for a long time. Our copper cupola roofs are built from 24-gauge copper. A matching copper weathervane can create a beautiful final result!
Steel
Some customers may prefer a steel cupola, which is perfect for matching to an existing or new home. Steel has an extra-long life expectancy, which can help to enhance the value of your home. This material is a great choice for people who want a cupola that withstands nearly any weather conditions and requires minimal to no maintenance.
Wood
Valley Forge Cupolas offers wooden cupolas too, which are made from Western Red Cedar. We’ve chosen this popular wood for its great natural properties, which help deter moisture, rotting, and other decay. Customers who wish to paint their cupolas often choose wooden cupolas, as they can easily accept a wide variety of finishes. Wood is also quite strong!
Vinyl
Vinyl cupolas are perhaps one of the most common choices for materials. With endless style options and low maintenance, Vinyl cupolas are an all-around good choice for a wide array of customers. Vinyl requires no maintenance, which means it won’t need to be sanded or stained. This material is also great for areas of high sun exposure, as it does not fade.
