J Kuhn Copper

J Kuhn Copper is a family-owned roofing and metalwork firm specializing in custom copper and slate work. Its main lines are double-lock standing seam copper roofs, seamless copper gutters, copper flashing for chimneys and windows, and slate roofing and siding, including restoration of historic buildings such as libraries, churches, colleges and municipal buildings. The firm also fabricates architectural copper details like chimney caps, cupolas, dormers and weathervanes.

The company is led by Jacob Kuhn and his wife Erin, who took over from his father John Kuhn's business, founded in 1982. Projects are planned around a custom quote, and the firm works across Berkshire County and Litchfield County, Connecticut, with its office on North Egremont Road in Great Barrington. Copper and slate are long-lived materials, so the firm's work is aimed at owners who want roofs that last for generations.
