HIALEAH, FL--(Marketwired - May 6, 2013) - According to Tom Castellanos -- roofing industry professional and CEO of East Coast Metals, Inc. -- homeowners and contractors must concentrate on the right techniques and materials if they intend to ensure thorough in-home comfort and energy-efficiency. As such, Castellanos points to a recent article from GMA News that discusses how clay and concrete roofing tiles -- in addition to ventilation techniques -- can improve the level of comfort residents experience amidst increasing summer temperatures.
The article explains, "In a live installation demo Wednesday at building and construction expo WORLDBEX, representatives from the Siam Cement Group said that concrete roof tiles are the best way to keep cool indoors during the summer." According to GMA News, architects at the conference revealed, "Concrete roof tiles offer very good thermal insulation. Especially when coated or glazed, it provides a higher level of emmitance and reflectance compared to galvanized iron and asphalt roof, thus heat transfer beneath the roof is reduced." The article also notes that many homeowners may find concrete tiles more aesthetically pleasing, as there is more potential for the materials to match other textures or colors.
In terms of maximizing the energy-efficiency offered by concrete roof tiles, the article suggests that ventilation also plays an important role. As a proponent of this type of material, Tom Castellanos believes that more contractors and homeowners should make sure to employ proper technique to ensure thorough ventilation beneath the tiles.
While the product has gained popularity in areas throughout the world, Tom Castellanos suggests that the lack of concrete roof tiles in the United States has prevented many homeowners from experiencing the energy-saving insulation benefits of the material. He expects that if the material becomes more widely used that the cost associated with concrete roof tiles could decline, making it more accessible to construction and home improvement projects within the United States.
"Markets around the world have embraced the use of concrete and clay roof tiles for the purpose of cooling their homes in the summer heat. Along with concrete and clay roof tiles proper ventilation beneath is still crucial; it is time that we in the US adopt these standards that the rest of the world seems to have gotten right. As a proponent of roof tiles in my 25 year career in the roof tile industry I wholeheartedly endorse the use of roof tiles for cooling homes," Tom Castellanos concludes.

Asphalt Roofing Awards Program Honors the Year's Most Remarkable Building Projects
BEACHWOOD, Ohio (PRWEB) May 03, 2013
Tremco Roofing and Building Maintenance is proud to announce the addition of the TremLock T-238 metal roofing system to the companys popular TremLock line of metal roofing solutions. The TremLock T-238 system provides roofing contractors with an excellent option for a wide variety of roofing applications and customer needs.
The TremLock T-238 system is ideal for retrofit or new construction on a broad range of substrate applications, including open-framing, with slopes as low as :12, said Tremco Roofings Technical Product Manager for TremLock Metal Roof Systems Michael Steele, LEED Green Associate and Registered Roof Observer.
Each panel is a symmetrical, two-piece mechanically seamed standing seam roof panel with a 2-3/8 seam height consisting of a metal panel and seam cap. The seam is in the form of a T with two beads of continuous factory-applied sealant located on the seam cap. Once installed, this two-piece design provides a continuous, uninterrupted seal at the top of the seam.
Installation is clean and simple for contractors, Steele continued. Panels can be installed from either side of the building, or even start from the center of the roof. The panels symmetrical shape allows clips to be pre-installed to reduce labor time. Costs are lowered, the installation can be completed faster, and the customer has a longer lasting roof.
Like all TremLock metal roofing systems, the TremLock T-238 system is pre-engineered to provide the perfect fit for leak-free protection and long-term performance, eliminating water infiltration and ensuring a watertight system for customers. Should a TremLock T-238 panel be damaged somehow, contractors can easily replace individual panels, a significant benefit over many other metal roofing systems.
The TremLock T-238 system has a Class A Fire Rating, meets numerous ASTM-E standards, and holds multiple UL and FM Global ratings. Tremco Roofing stands behind the TremLock T-238 Roof system with a 20-year weathertight warranty and a 20-year high-performance paint film warranty.

KATY, Texas, April 30, 2013 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Hail and wind damage can ruin a roof. Lifting the shingles, destroying the protective granules and cracking the base of shingles, these forces of nature make the roof less weather-tight and shorten its lifespan. The most frightening problem is the fact that the damage is not always visibledents from hail are difficult to see from the ground, and loose shingles may lay flat again until they are ripped away completely in the next storm. The good news is that professional roofers like Texan Roofing can provide area homeowners with free hail and wind inspections to ensure that roofs are watertight and still in good condition.
Free Inspections The wind picks up a shingle by the edge and starts to loosen it. After the storm, the shingle may lay flat again. From the ground, it appears that the roof is intact. However, it will take very little wind to lift that shingle again and remove it from the structure. If this happens during a heavy rainstorm, the rain will then have time to penetrate through the felt paper and start seeping into the structure.
Hail damage is more easily felt than seen, and that means climbing up on the roof. Some damage, such as dings on roof vents, are easy to see. However, the shingles must be viewed closely to see the dimples and witness the damage to the protective layer of granules. Homeowners who are willing to climb up on their roof and look closely for damage don't always know what they are looking for. However, Texan Roofing offers free inspections, and they know what the signs of wind and hail damage are.
Prompt Action Avoids Long-term Damage The frustrating thing about wind and hail damage is that the damage to the roof may not show for months or even years. However, the overall life of the roof is still compromised. While hail will not result in roof failure at the next storm, it still shortens the life of the roof and ensures that failure will happen within the next few years. Insurance companies recognize that the damage can be hidden initially, and they see the value in acting promptly to avoid serious damage later. However, homeowners need to have their roofs inspected to determine the extent of the damage.
Insurance Company Liaisons When Texan Roofing inspects a home, they do more than just look at the roof and make recommendations. They also write reports for insurance companies detailing the damage and what the impact on the home will be. These reports are provided free of charge along with the estimate, and the information can be given to the homeowner's insurance company. Texan Roofing works directly with most insurance companies to file claims so homeowners won't have to go through the paperwork themselves.
Repairs and Replacements Loose shingles can be secured again. Whether the roof needs to be replaced or not depends on how many shingles were affected. If the area is small, repairs are generally more cost effective. Hail damage typically leads to a full roof replacement. Hail leaves extensive damage across the entire roof, so most insurance companies will approve a full replacement. Texan Roofing is happy to provide both services to ensure that their customers' homes remain dry and safe from the weather.
About When severe weather moves through the area, it's important to have the roof inspected afterwards to ensure that there is no damage and the structure is still in good condition. Texan Roofing company offers free inspections as well as repair and replacement services. They work directly with insurance companies, and homeowners can turn to them for help when they are concerned about storm damage to the roof. Customers interested in hearing more about Texas Roofing's services may call the company's 24-hour customer support line at (281) 391-9600, or schedule a free inspection and estimate on repairs or replacement online at http://www.texanroofinginc.com.

Texan Roofing Offering New Katy Roof Storm Damage Repair
Perth, WA (PRWEB) May 01, 2013
Perth roofing and building maintenance company Air Roofing has appointed White Chalk Road to manage the ongoing SEO service for their website http://www.airroofing.com.au.
The SEO campaign will be part of a wider marketing strategy employed by Air Roofing with their creative and marketing agency COMVERJ, which includes print advertising, online advertising, social media and sponsorships among other activities.
Air Roofing Director Peter Hughes said of his decision to invest in SEO and online marketing: Our AdWords investment has been doing very well but our organic ranking has dropped considerably over the past few years. The online environment is only becoming more and more competitive, so we felt that now was the time to take action to improve our rankings and get ahead of the competition.
Air Roofing has set some very specific ROI goals for their SEO investment looking to increase unique visitors to Air Roofing by 20% in the next 12 months. More importantly, they want to see a spike in enquiries through their website form and are looking to convert 25% of these enquiries to sales.
White Chalk Road CEO Charles Ryder said: By increasing Air Roofings rankings for their non-branded keywords that is, phrases that do not contain their brand name and would be used to find their services by people who had not previously heard of the business we will be able to attract a brand new customer base to the Air Roofing website thus boosting their sales leads considerably.
Mr Ryder continued: While Air Roofings AdWords are working for them at the moment, they understand that paid search is a short-term solution, so we are embarking on a long-term SEO campaign with the company to increase their organic visibility, and thus allow them to reduce their paid online advertising spend.
Air Roofing has over 120 years experience in the roofing sector in Perth, with the business growing significantly over the past 6 years.
