A New Roof Can Boost Your Home's Energy Effeciency

NEW ROOF = BETTER ENERGY

DID YOU KNOW much of your home’s energy leaves your house via your roof?

A roof with dated materials offers little to no energy efficiency. Heat escapes your home through compromised parts of your roof’s structure, leaving you with higher energy costs every month and a home that is more difficult to heat or keep cool.

Once a roof is compromised in one area, the weakened part of the roof is susceptible to sagging, leaking, and other potentially dangerous and expensive damages. In many cases, a full roof replacement for greater peace of mind and overall savings in the long run is a wise choice.

Signs that can reveal the state of your roof:

  • Cracked Shingles

  • Dark Stains

  • Sagging

  • Rotting or Mold

  • Leaks

  • Water Damage

It is also helpful to know the age of your roof, even if there aren’t any apparent spots of corrosion or loss.

If you’re concerned that your roof has damage, your first step is to call a local roofing company to evaluate your roof’s condition. Rock City Roofing is a phone call away from your FREE roof inspection.
