Texas, Dallas (PRWEB) September 20, 2013

US demand to rise 3.5% annually through 2017 US demand for roofing is projected to rise 3.5 percent annually to 268 million squares in 2017. This is a rebound from the declines seen between 2007 and 2012 when demand fell as a result of a steep drop in building construction. Going forward, increases in building construction expenditures will spur gains for roofing.

Roofing tiles to be fastest growing product segment Asphalt shingles accounted for the largest share of roofing demand in 2012 with a 57 percent market share, indicative of their dominant position in the residential market. Through 2017, US demand for asphalt shingles is forecast to grow 4.1 percent annually, spurred by the rebound in residential building construction expenditures. Gains will also be boosted by continuing consumer interest in laminated asphalt shingles, which are seen as being better able to improve the appearance and value of a home.

Roofing tiles are expected to exhibit the most rapid growth of all roofing products through 2017. Advances will be driven by the rebound in residential building construction activity in the West and South, where tiles are most often installed. Demand will also be supported by greater interest in these products because of their favorable aesthetics and ability to be used on cool roofs.

Among other roofing materials, thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) membranes will see above-average growth through 2017. This material, which is installed mainly on nonresidential low-slope roofs, will see increasing use because of its low cost and ease of installation. Moreover, TPOs are usually white-colored membranes that reflect sunlight, promoting energy savings by reducing consumption.

New building construction to drive market gains In both the residential and nonresidential markets, new building construction will drive gains. For instance, demand for roofing in the new housing segment is expected to rise at a double-digit rate through 2017 as housing starts advance from their low 2012 base. In the nonresidential market, sharp growth in office and commercial construction spending and gains in institutional and industrial construction expenditures will boost demand for low-slope roofing materials.

Reroofing activity accounts for the larger share of roofing demand in the US. Through 2017, reroofing demand in both the residential and nonresidential markets will be supported by a more favorable lending environment, as property owners who put off renovation projects such as roof replacement will be able to undertake them going forward.

West to be fastest growing regional market On a regional basis, the West is expected to see the fastest advances in roofing demand through 2017, driven by that regions above-average growth in population and housing starts, which will spur demand in the residential market. Moreover, growth in population will promote the construction of such nonresidential structures as retail sites, educational and healthcare facilities, manufacturing plants, and warehouses.

So, what should you look for when inspecting for roof repair? The National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) recommends doing a roof inspection at least two times a year -- spring and fall. The best place to begin is inside the home -- grab a flashlight and make a trip to the attic.

Here are four things to look for on the inside:

1) Places where the roof deck is sagging

2) Signs of water damage or leaking

3) Dark spots and trails

4) Outside light showing through the roof.

EXTERIOR CHECK When looking at the exterior of the roof, pay attention to such things as damaged flashing, missing shingles, curling, blistering, buckling, rotting and algae growth (which occurs most often in humid climates and appears as dark or greenish stains).

The HomeTeam Inspection Service offers these roof repair tips on what to check for on the outside:

5) Visually inspect the roof for cracked, torn, bald or missing shingles.

CONCORD -- The mezzanine on a suite that housed a roofing company business caught fire Thursday morning, but nobody was injured and neighboring businesses were unscathed, authorities said.

The one-alarm fire started at 9:37 a.m. inside a building located at 970 Detroit Ave. and was preceded by a popping that sounded like a "mini-explosion," Battalion Chief Dominic Ciotola of the Contra Costa Fire Protection District said. The building's owner heard the popping, and immediately left the building, Ciotola said. Nobody else was inside, he said.

Fire officials said it was no immediately known where the small explosion came from, but Battalion Chief Andy Steffen said that "everything at this time is pointing to an accident."

The company, Crest Roofing, Inc., is located in a suite inside the building, and the mezzanine is where the fire was knocked down, Ciotola said. Crews from four engine companies and two fire trucks needed 20 minutes to extinguish the blaze, he said.

A cashier for Salsa Verde, a Mexican restaurant located next door, said smoke sometimes comes from the chimneys at the building, so initially she didn't realize the smoke she saw Wednesday was indiciative of a blaze.

"People just started screaming trying to make sure nobody was inside," Monica Velasco said. "Someone came running out. It was scary."

Much of the damage done to the building came from the smoke, Steffen said. It was estimated that the monetary damages would equal $100,000, he said.
