The relatively low slope of the Bradford County Courthouse's main roof, along with its history, made the development of roof replacement options anything but straightforward. Ultimately, with the approval of the State Historic Preservation Office, batten seam copper roofing was selected as the replacement material due to its long service life, suitability for the relatively low slope of the roof, appropriateness for buildings of the Courthouse's era, and ability to accept a robust snow retention system. Over 19 tons of copper were installed during the renovation, which also included ornamental applications.
