Alexander T. Kane

A Family of Builders

Alexander T. Kane grew up on the East Coast — New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania — surrounded by a family of contractors. Copper work wasn't just a trade; it was in his blood. As a second-generation coppersmith, he learned the craft from those who came before him, developing an eye for detail and a commitment to quality that would define his career.

Bringing Copper to the Midwest

In 1997, Alexander arrived in Omaha, Nebraska, and began doing what he does best — transforming homes and buildings with the beauty of copper. Over the next three decades, he built a reputation as the go-to coppersmith in the region, earning the trust of homeowners, general contractors, and government agencies alike.

The Numbers Speak

With over 3,500 copper standing seam bay window roofs, more than 100 miles of custom gutter systems, and restorations on Frank Lloyd Wright designed properties, Alexander's portfolio is as impressive as it is diverse. From the Peter Kiewit family home to Offutt Air Force Base, from historic Kentucky churches to Iowa state buildings — his work spans the region and the centuries.

Zero Leaks. Ever.

Every project comes with a lifetime workmanship warranty. And Alexander doesn't say that lightly. In 35+ years and thousands of installations: “Not one leak anywhere, ever.” That's not marketing — that's a track record.

The Love of Copper

For Alexander, copper isn't just a material — it's a medium. Whether it's a custom mailbox, a decorative water diverter that creates an icicle effect, or a full historical restoration, each project is a chance to showcase what copper can do. As he puts it: “If you can imagine it, I can make it copper.”
