Custom Copper Scupper Boxes

Handcrafted copper scupper boxes that channel water away from your roof and walls while adding lasting beauty and value to your Bayonne property.

Functional Art for Your Roof

At Elite Roofing Inc., we fabricate custom copper scupper boxes right here in Bayonne. A scupper box is more than just a drain—it's a critical component that directs water off flat or low-slope roofs, protecting your walls, foundation, and landscaping from water damage.

Copper is the gold standard for scupper boxes. It won't rust, it develops a beautiful patina over time, and when properly installed, it can last 50+ years. We hand-form each box to your roof's exact specifications, ensuring a watertight fit and clean lines that complement your building's architecture.

Why Copper?

We've installed aluminum, galvanized steel, and PVC scuppers over the years. Copper costs more upfront, but it's the only material we recommend for clients who want to do it once and do it right. It solders cleanly, expands and contracts without cracking, and weathers gracefully. In a coastal town like Bayonne, that durability matters.

Our Process

Every scupper box we build starts with accurate measurements and a conversation about your building's style. We fabricate the box in our shop, then integrate it with your existing roof membrane or flashing system. Proper pitch, secure anchoring, and watertight seams are non-negotiable—we've seen too many leaks caused by poorly fitted scuppers.

Whether you're restoring a historic building, upgrading a commercial flat roof, or replacing a failed scupper, we'll build something that works and looks right.

Common questions
How long does a copper scupper box last?+

With proper installation, a copper scupper box can easily last 50 years or more. Copper doesn't rust and holds up exceptionally well in coastal environments like Bayonne.

Will the copper turn green?+

Yes, copper naturally develops a patina over time, shifting from bright copper to brown, then eventually to a green or blue-green finish. Many property owners love this aged look, but if you prefer the original copper color, we can discuss protective coatings.

Can you match existing copper work on my building?+

Absolutely. We can fabricate scupper boxes to match the style, profile, and finish of your existing copper gutters, downspouts, or trim.
