Improving Your Roof's Energy Efficiency

The desire to improve energy efficiency in your home is a great reason to embark on a residential roofing improvement project. As with all other home improvement endeavors, roof replacement requires careful planning. Here are some tips:

Look at All Possible Options

Consumers are increasingly looking for energy-efficient products, and the market has responded accordingly. You now have a wide variety of energy-efficient roofing options to consider. You can easily find shingles that are highly rated to withstand any type of weather and are recyclable at the end of their life too.

Work With Experienced Roofers

Having access to high-quality roofing materials is important, but remember that the quality of the installation is just as important as the quality of the materials. You should hire a contractor who is certified by the manufacturer of the roofing product you’ve chosen to ensure the installation is handled properly. Make sure you also have access to strong warranties.

Plan Your Next Steps

Keep your new roof in top condition by having it regularly inspected. Any damage incurred during severe weather, for instance, should be attended to immediately. Gradually decreasing energy consumption at home doesn’t have to end with your roof either. Start making plans for the rest of your home to be greener and further the benefits that your green roof provides.
