Custom Metal Fabrication & Architectural Copper Manufacturing

For over 50 years, our team at Butcher & Butcher Construction has been fabricating and installing architectural sheet metal, and that capability grew substantially in 2026 with the acquisition of Copper Shoppe, a premier manufacturer of handcrafted copper roofing accessories and gutter components. Architects, general contractors, commercial property managers, and homeowners across Michigan and South Florida come to us when a project requires precision-fabricated metal components that standard products simply cannot match. Every piece that leaves our Rochester Hills sheet metal shop is made to order and built to the exact specifications of the project it belongs on.

The Copper Shoppe Acquisition

The 2026 acquisition of Copper Shoppe brought premium copper manufacturing fully in-house, giving our team complete control over design, quality, and turnaround on every custom copper component we produce. Pat Butcher, president and owner, put the intent plainly: bringing this craftsmanship in-house means delivering copper work that matches the durability and performance clients already expect from us. For architects and contractors who have dealt with the lead times and inconsistencies that come with third-party metal fabricators, the full details are in our press release announcing the Copper Shoppe acquisition.

Custom Copper Gutters, Downspouts & Accessories

Our Copper Shoppe product line covers a full range of custom gutter and downspout components, all handcrafted and made to order in our sheet metal shop. The current lineup includes deep half round gutters, gooseneck downspouts, AutoClear downspout cleanouts, leader head collector boxes, chimney caps and shrouds, and ornamental and decorative gutter and downspout brackets and hangers. These components are specified for projects where standard aluminum gutters are not architecturally appropriate, whether that’s a historic restoration in Harbor Springs, a high-end custom build in the Rochester Hills area, or a commercial property in Fort Lauderdale where the exterior detailing carries real visual weight.

Sheet Metal Applications Across Roofing & Construction

Our fabrication shop supports both our commercial roofing and residential roofing crews with custom metal components that integrate directly into the building’s exterior envelope rather than being sourced and coordinated separately from an outside vendor. Custom flashing, coping, fascia panels, and architectural metal accents all come out of the same shop, fabricated by the same team that understands how each component is going onto the building. Copper chimney caps and shrouds are built to the exact dimensions of each installation, which matters for both proper fit and long-term water management performance.

Materials We Work With

Copper
Lead-coated copper
Zinc and tin coated copper
Galvanized and aluminized steel
Stainless steel
Aluminum
Zinc

Material selection is driven by the application, the building’s existing exterior system, and the expected service life of the component. Clients who need guidance on material specification can work through the options directly with our team before any fabrication begins.

Why In-House Fabrication Changes the Equation

Sourcing custom architectural metal from a third-party fabricator adds lead time, introduces a quality variable outside your contractor’s control, and creates a coordination problem when a component arrives on the job site and doesn’t fit as specified. Our Rochester Hills shop eliminates all three of those issues by keeping the full fabrication process in one place, from initial measurement to finished component ready for installation. For project managers and general contractors running construction schedules across Pompano Beach, Harbor Springs, and Rochester Hills, that kind of single-source control over a custom fabrication scope makes a real operational difference.
