We use highly reflective Conklin roofing systems to bounce back the sun’s UV light and heated rays. This can drastically lower the energy costs in any building where this type of roofing is being used. However, there is an even better way to keep costs down when dealing with any troubled roof, especially metal ones.
Cool Roof Systems Lower Energy Costs
Roof coatings that are either rolled or sprayed onto metal roofs can reduce the surface temperature by 80 degrees or more. The amount of money that is saved in the reduction of energy costs will quickly add up. These types of roof coating systems can quickly pay for themselves with these savings, but there are other huge advantages that only a cool roofing system can offer.
No More Roof Replacements
In the past it was common practice to completely remove a metal roof when it started to show obvious signs of wear and tear. These signs can start making themselves noticed in as little as ten years. Leaks spring up and start to cause problems. A roof coating can stop metal roof leaks for decades because it has no seams.
Typically a roofing crew would be hired to strip the older metal roof from the building. Every portion of the old roof was then loaded into trucks where it was carted off into landfills. The roof was then replaced with a new metal roof. However, today there is a much better option for several very obvious reasons.
A Conklin® acrylic elastomeric coating can be applied to an existing metal roofing system to completely eliminate all of the waste that is clogging up landfills, while saving valuable man hours that are typically spent on a traditional roof replacement.
Quick and Easy!
The entire roof coating can be applied and finished during normal business hours without any type of interruptions. With a traditional roof replacement, your business will have to close its doors until the project is completed. It could take as long as one full week to complete. Closing up shop to have a roof replaced is something that no business wants.
The Conklin® cool roofing systems we install are the smart choice. They provide a leak-free roof that massively reduces energy costs, can be installed quickly and easily, and are backed by up to a 20-year non-prorated warranty. These are exceptional qualities that you will not find in your traditional roof replacement.
