Understanding Roof Installation

 

A roof installation can be a large investment in your home or business. Understanding the multistep process helps you make an informed decision and get the best results.

Cool Roof Solutions in Sacramento, CA offers a range of products and technologies that help residential and commercial properties reduce energy costs, improve indoor comfort and extend roof lifespans. Cool roofing options include:

Reflective Coatings: These are applied to the surface of existing roofs and enhance their efficiency by reflecting sunlight instead of absorbing it. Cool roof coatings are available for most traditional asphalt shingle types, metal roofing and some tile roofing.

The Best Time of Year to Schedule a Roof Installation

Low-Sloped Roofs: The requirements for cool roofs vary based on the slope of your building, with more stringent standards for low-sloped roofs that rise 2 feet (0.6 meters) or less in height every 12 horizontal feet (3.7 meters). Cool roofing options for low-sloped buildings include a variety of reflective shingles and single-ply membranes that are designed for hot climates.

Proper ventilation is essential for a healthy roof and home. Insufficient ventilation can lead to moisture buildup, which compromises the integrity of the structure and contributes to mold and rot. Installing vents in strategic locations allows hot air to escape from the attic, regulating attic temperature and reducing moisture problems.

In addition to offering a wide array of environmentally-friendly benefits, cool roofs can also lower your energy bills and qualify you for tax credits or rebates. To learn more about how you can benefit from a cool roof, contact our expert team.
