The hottest thing right now in the roofing industry is energy efficient roofing. The summers are getting hotter and people are looking for long term solutions to save money and help the environment. Energy efficient roofing is also a great way to update the look of your business or home.
Upgrading to metal roofing is a great start on improving your homes energy use and value. Metal roofing can be offered in many different ways, painted, unpainted or granular coated metal. You should consider metal roofing, because it is aesthetically pleasing, highly reflective, recyclable, and very durable. Metal roof washing and cleaning is simple as well.
If you want a great metal roof the last a very long time, we suggest a copper roof. Copper roofing is not only becoming popular in residential living, but is very popular in commercial metal roofing. Copper starts out amber, but eventually turns into an elegant green patina. Since the patina is oxidized, it prevents corrosion, so you don’t have to apply a protective coating to it every year. Consult a commercial roofing contractor a cooper roof, roofing estimates and for your commercial roofing needs.
Another energy efficient technique is to install a radiant barrier to your attic system. Radiant Barrier comes in foil or spray and its main purpose is to reflect heat.
Cool roof is great solution for a commercial building. Cool roof is usually a white acrylic, applied to asphalt roofs to keep them expanding from heat. I would consult a roofing specialist instead of installing it yourself.
Cool shingles are on the rise for residents. Cool shingles almost like cool roof, but are light-colored and contain an algaecide to prevent grunge. Cool shingles have a higher Solar Reflective Index (SRI) than traditional shingles as well.
If you do want metal roofing, an energy efficient single-ply made with Hypalon, or a composite roof will do just fine! Hypalon is a type of rubber and is very durable. Composite roofs are great because they can come in wood, metal or ceramic. Composite roofing colors are light, while composite roughs are durable and the best thing about them is that they are all natural!
