Care About the Environment? Want to Save on Energy Bills? Go Green With a New Roofing System

"Going Green" is a very broad term that has become very popular in recent years. Everything from recycling, using less oil, buying organic foods, and even putting a more eco-friendly roof on your home can be considered Going Green. There are a handful of roofing systems that can reduce your energy cost, and the amount of impact you have on the environment.

TPO Single Ply Membranes: Thermoplastic Polyolefin is a rubber-like material, that contains no chlorine or plasticizers. Without the chlorine being added, it can be considered a "green" product. TPO is 100% recyclable, and in some cases the reflectivity rating is in the 80% range so it ends up saving on energy costs.

Metal Roofing Systems: As previously discussed in our blog, metal roofing systems are known to be very long lasting, and can help homeowners save on their energy bills. Some metal roofs are even Energy Star rated, and can earn possible tax credits.

Energy Efficient Roof Shingles: There are new shingles on the market that use a highly reflective granule technology that bounces back the sun's rays. They help keep roofs cooler, resulting in a more comfortable living space below, and helps reduce energy bills. Cool roofs also result in lower carbon dioxide emissions, and other various harmful harmful environmental toxins. Some "cool shingle" roofing systems even come with a 40-year warranty.

If you are interested in receiving a quote for a more energy efficient roofing system, please contact Alpine Roofing Construction at 214-528-9897, and visit our websites!

Do you need a new roof? You may not have to pay out of pocket for a new roofing system!

Dallas Metal Roofing Contractor- Metals


Alpine Roofing Construction is a Dallas roofing contractor with experience installing metal standing seam roofing. Here are some details on your choice of metals for your metal roof:



STEEL ROOF
Our roll-formed metal standing seam steel material is an ideal roofing material because of its strength, extraordinary outdoor corrosion resistance and longevity. Your steel roof can be galvanized to provide extra (up to twice) the corrosion protection. A steel roof delivers the optimum combination of the features of aluminum and zinc – the barrier protection and long-term durability of aluminum and the galvanic protection of sheared edges that is characteristic of zinc. Steel can be bare, painted or have a thin, clear acrylic coating.

COPPER ROOF
Our installed Copper metal roofing will not rust and has no finish to scratch or peel. It is soft enough to easily tool and weathers naturally to a beautiful, natural green patina. Although considerably more expensive than aluminum and steel, copper is the metal of choice for buildings with a long design life.

ALUMINUM ROOF
Aluminum is prized for metal roofs because it is extremely lightweight, won't rust but must be painted or coated for appearance. Coatings are similar to those used on steel.

Aluminum is a good option for virtually any roof where steel or other materials are being considered, particularly in the Gulf of Mexico environments where salt air can cause corrosion. Its natural properties of light weight, strength and longevity make it a desirable roofing material particularly for reroofing where aluminum does not require structural reinforcement.

Aluminum is more malleable than steel and can generally be formed into more intricate and detailed product designs which allow the building of strength and beauty into a roof.

TERNE COATED STAINLESS STEEL ROOF
Terne-coated Stainless Steel is covered on both sides with an ultra thin tin/zinc alloy, making it one of the most corrosion resistant roofing and flashing materials available today and is recommended for use in severe industrial, chemical or marine environments. Is terne coating can give it a natural, matt-gray finish.
