Cupola Materials

A cupola is a decorative rooftop structure often found on a pavilion or gazebo.  A cupola has a domed top, a polygonal base, and may be found on the roof of any type of building.

Fiberglass

Fiberglass roof cupolas can be used to ventilate any type of roof.  They are incredibly impact resistant and won’t warp, rot, crack or rust. They come in a variety of styles to fit the architecture of any building. 

Vinyl

Made from PVC or polyvinyl chloride, the vinyl cupola surface is resistant to water. It will not rot or warp from exposure to weather. Vinyl cupolas are inexpensive and can integrate with other decorative materials such as copper or aluminum.

Wood

Oak and Western Cedar are popular options when choosing a wooden cupola.  Wood cupolas may be capped with copper domes or weather vanes and treated with primer for increased durability. Wood cupolas are often chosen because of their aesthetic beauty.
