Where to go for 2' heighth copper flashing

[Golf battery 1,223]

Sooo.   Mercer cty north.  Looking for 2' by 25' copper flashing to bury in the ground.  Doing a quote for a guy thats worried the arborvitae im gonna plant is going to go towards his leach field.   I know its fine without it.  But he moved here from nyc and first septic field and he checked the internet on septics.  So hes all bugged out.  

Any ideas on places for me to get a price

Gracias

Ouch.   I just picked up 2 sheets a couple months back to bend up a chimney flashing. I want to say they were around 250-300+ a sheet. 36"x72" .I could be wrong as I just buy and partner pays the bills. Lol.. be cheaper to dig a narrow trench and fill with concrete.  a 25' ditch 24"x 8" is less than a yard n half.  so about 400-450$ delivered. You could certainly cut the diameter of ditch in half.. still cost about 350$ in concrete because of delivery charges.

Check out roofing supply houses. Copper flashing is used in roofing for flashing. Usually you can buy copper flashing there by the roll or by the foot

50 sq. ft. of 24 gauge/16 oz cooper? Is he taking out a mortgage on this? Ouch!

Last I knew a 50lb roll which is 18" x 33' plus or minus was over 5 Benjamins.

I know. Its expensive.  I told him that.  Im guessing 2'by25' is gonna be around 3-500$.   Just gotta find it to give a quote.  Yup.  City folk.

Yes.  Thank you.   Thats my other option.  I like copper because the cu makes the roots turn back rather than just running along it and following it to the end then going around it.  We use a copper spray in nursery pots to stop root spiraling and make a more dense root system.
