I am considering a cor-ten corrugated metal roof (for the “rusty” look) but havn’t found a source yet. Does anyone have experience with this? Installed cost comparisons with other roofing, connector and flashing details?

*Cor-ten metal roofing is no longer being manufactured.
*Cor-Ten was a United States Steel product made right here in Pittsburgh PA. Since it is hometown pride, local flava, blahblahblah, lotsa stuff here is covered with the stuff, including the USX tower, world HQ of USS. The problem is the stuff really never stops rusting, it just slows down. If you could see some of the things here, you'd wouldn't even cover a doghouse with itMike
*Standard galvalume panels can be stained to look rusty.-Rob
