Whether you’re building a new garden wall or are adding the finishing touches the surround of a flat roof, coping stones are a necessity. As well as protecting the upper face of a wall from weather, coping stones also help to keep water away from the wall in general. This prevents both cosmetic and structural damage caused by water ingress, which can prove a costly issue if overlooked.

At Roofing Megastore, we offer a complete range of coping stones for walling and flat roofing applications. These include a range of materials, such as cost-effective concrete, sophisticated granite, and non-porous porcelain. Plus, you’ll find a choice of single weathered and twice weathered coping stones too.

Coping Applications

Roofing Coping Stones

Many flat roofs are surrounded by a low or high wall. This wall adds kerb appeal to a property by hiding the membrane edging, drain outlets, and any necessary ventilation. If your flat roof has been adapted for socialising, it will also provide a slight barrier to make your roof space a little safer.

Roof coping can be used along the top of this wall to protect brickwork from water damage as well as provide a sleek finish. For such uses, a tough concrete coping stone will be ideal. But if your roof space is used for socialising, then a sophisticated granite or porcelain coping stone is perfect.

Wall Coping Stones

From retaining walls to raised flowerbeds, coping stones can transform the mundane into a wonderful garden feature. As well as playing a crucial role in protecting your wall, they provide a great spot for people to perch when socialising on a summer evening.

Wall coping will protect brickwork from the impact of water ingress whilst also allowing you to achieve a professional finish. Both granite and porcelain coping stones offer a sophisticated and luxury aesthetic. But if you’re more price-conscious, then concrete is a great alternative.

Coping Materials

Concrete

Although a low-cost choice of coping, concrete provides superb longevity. Plus, with annual cleaning it’ll maintain its appearance and colouring year-on-year. Concrete coping is particularly ideal for roof spaces that are not used regularly.

Granite

Granite coping features natural variation and ages beautifully, therefore providing a sophisticated and luxury appearance that is unmatched. Granite is great for areas that get more ‘eyeballs’, such as roof spaces with footfall or garden walling.

Porcelain

Unlike most other materials, porcelain is virtually non-porous. This means that it is resistant to water ingress, chemicals, and staining. This makes porcelain coping an ideal option for walling that will often be used as a spot to perch when socialising.
