The National Roofing Contractor Association (NRCA) will kick off the 2018 National Roofing Week (NRW) on Sunday, June 3. GAF has a full week of events scheduled to help recognize the important work that roofers do in their communities. Check our Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram pages for daily stories, photos and features on roofing contractors and the positive impact you make.
Whether you’re a low-slope roofing contractor or a building owner/manager, roof maintenance can be the key to unlocking significant business value. Unfortunately, there are three common myths that often prevent people from seeing the value right over their heads.
An estimated 55% of the surface area in a typical city consists of roofs, streets, or parking areas. These areas are often non-reflective, very sunlight-absorbent surfaces that tend to capture heat from the sun and warm the surrounding area. Overall air temperature values of 7-10 degrees higher than the surrounding countryside are not uncommon.

Reflective roofs, known as “cool roofs,” have many benefits for low-slope buildings, such as energy savings from reduced air-conditioning loads due to lower roof heat build-up.
