Owning a commercial building is no easy feat, and to save yourself some time, effort, and money, adopting an energy-efficient roof can help reduce air-conditioning costs by around 20 percent. Read on to find out about your choices for an energy-efficient roof for your commercial building.  

PVC ROOFING

When considering energy-efficient roofing, PVC roofing tops the list. PVC roofing systems such as Duro-Last are UV resistant, lowering cooling costs during hotter months and conditions. The EPA ENERGY STAR requirements are not only met but exceeded by PVC. Among the single-ply, white products evaluated by the ENERGY STAR program, the Duro-Last Cool Zone roofing system is the only one that has maintained reflectivity of more than 85% after three years of weathering. The highly sustained reflectivity delivered by the roofing membrane is saving money and energy for building owners all across the US. From reducing a building’s energy consumption to helping properties gain LEED® credits to lowering the urban heat island effect, the Duro-Last Cool Zone roofing system is a leading sustainable product.

When you take in energy savings, Duro-Last’s energy efficiency will surely have an impact on the overall cost of the roof, making it one of the cost-efficient options on the list as well.

Why choose Roof Core Cut

Core cut analysis is a critical step in helping to determine and recommend a new roof system. Without accurate information, a professional roofing contractor cannot offer accurate pricing.

Basing price on assumptions without confirming accurate information leaves the contractor and customer open to a project where a contractor may cut corners to remain whole on the project or change order the customer for the difference.
