Nice product.
Well, I have had it for a month waiting for the rain to stop so I can put a new roof on my garage...it has not worked out for me as far as schedule goes. This is a very nice product with lots of appeal. The main thing that strikes me is that it is mostly made of PVC which will make it rot resistant along with using all stainless fasteners. The way they have made this in 3 pieces makes the installation not only easier but safer since you have less to deal with getting it up on the roof. The glass in it is plate glass which is nice and should allow a lot of natural light int the attic of the garage. I am also thinking of adding an LED light in it with a photocell. Further, one of the sides is hinged to open when you remove 2 stainless screws...this got me going on adding a light fixture but it is so you can access the mount for a weathervane. The copper treatment of the roof is actually sheet copper as well with a decent plywood sheathing to hold its swooping shape. I do so sincerely hope to get the roof on in the next few weeks and will hopefully be able to share some photos. This manufacturer also has their own weather vanes...Now I am not sure what style of weather vane to get...too many choices.
The Windsor Vinyl Cupola with Copper Roof 26 in. x 38 in. by Good Directions is absolutely beautiful. When I saw it available, I really wasn’t sure where I was going to display it, however, I grabbed it anyway.
First, the quality of this cupola is outstanding. Obviously the copper roof stands out. It should last 100 years easily. Next, the vinyl sides and windows not only will last just as long as the roof, but are fitted perfectly together. The workmanship is outstanding.
Next, the directions for installation couldn’t be easier to understand. However, just in case you don’t “get it,” Good Directions lives up to their name and provides a step by step video on their website that outlines everything that needs to be done.
So, if you are in the market for something a bit different, I highly recommend the Windsor Vinyl Cupola with Copper Roof 26 in. x 38 in. by Good Directions from The Home Depot.
