Homeowners expect a new roof to last several years and having the right contractor can help. A properly installed roof takes time and is not cheap — it’s an investment in your home and family. But if a contractor cuts corners, a new roof could fail. Pass these tips along to homeowners to help them understand that putting on a roof is more than just the shingles — it’s about choosing the right contractor to install reliable products.
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.

If you’re looking to save money (and who isn’t?), think about shingle recycling. In many cases, recycling roofing is more cost effective than dumping. In a recent survey, contractors said they would be willing to take the time to separate torn-off shingles from other waste if they could save 10% on disposal costs and market themselves as contractors who recycle shingles.
One of the most common and costly issues homeowners call on a contractor for is to fix a leaky roof. Not surprisingly, most property owners do not have the expertise (or desire) to get onto their roofs and look for problems themselves.
