Time for a Commercial Roof Replacement: Go Green!



No roof lasts forever. At some point they all need to be replaced; and, depending upon the environment, this can be sooner rather than later for many roofs. Here in Florida, we have to deal with heat conditions not seen in the northern states; the expansion and contraction of roofing materials does an enormous amount of damage to them, as well as, the wind damage from hurricane season. Roofing is one of the largest expenses along with foundation on any structure, so to replace a roof is a serious investment on your part. Finding the right roofing for your business and structure is important when making a roof replacement for your business.

Our business provides multiple styles and choices in roofing, and we are willing to make recommendations that can save you money now or over time. For example, using what's known in the industry as a “cool roof” makes sense. This type of geoengineering takes a very simple change and produces a shift in energy costs and extends the life of a roof over time. Commercial roof replacement from a tar roof to a white or reflective one can extend the roof by ten to fifteen years in a place like Florida. It can also cut back on heating and cooling costs each month tenfold. This is very important in that it performs a dual task of protecting the building from the elements and reflecting solar heat. Think of what color clothing you wear in summer and why—it’s no different when it comes to roofing. You wouldn't wear all black in the heat, you want to wear white; and, the same goes for roofing colors.

Southern Coast Enterprises Inc. moved into the reflective and white roofing market so that we could help our customers enjoy the latest innovations in Green Energy and see immediate savings. We work to help our clients design buildings and replace roofing in a way that adheres to energy-friendly living. If you care about the environment—or even if you don't, you can benefit from Green Energy products and we'll show you how.
