Roofing contractor Tallahassee, FL company, Roofing Emporium, is now using wind resistant shingles for homeowner installations. This new material upgrade is designed to prevent blown off shingles and shingle deterioration from strong winds.

Tallahassee, Florida (PRWEB) October 16, 2012

Water is one of the most damaging elements to the interior and exterior sections of a home. Studies have been reported that most homeowners are unaware of leaks until visible problems are discovered. The constant rain, hail and solar rays can weaken any roof structure that is not treated with protective materials.

The new materials change made by the Roofing Emporium company will benefit homeowners that have older or newer homes. The wind resistant materials also lock out water intrusions and deflect the solar rays of the sun that can cause weakening of asphalt shingles.

Delays are not uncommon in the roofing industry. From insurance company backups to scheduling conflicts, homeowners could unfortunately wait to receive much needed help. Insurance data is reviewed annually by regulators and more emphasis is put into the hurricane zones in Florida for first responders. Homeowners that live outside of the major cities can be at a disadvantage working with companies that do not often travel outside of the city limits.

The Roofing Emporium contractor database that is used includes contractors that travel to all parts of Northern Florida. This is helping to eliminate roofing company delays as well as insurance adjuster delays.

The Roofing Emporium company expansions are part of a larger initiative to help strengthen the services offered to North Florida homeowners. A large contractor network is now helping Roofing Emporium to expand its services to other areas of Florida and surrounding states.

This is in preparation for the close of the 2012 hurricane season and the start of the 2013 season. The majority of contractors that are now available have the ability to work seven days a week to help solve roofing problems and provide new roof installations for homeowners.

Roofing contractor Hialeah, FL company, Roofing Emporium, is now offering roof repair quotes online. This new offer is expected to speed up the process of homeowner assessment and roof repairs for residents of Hialeah and others in North Florida.

Hialeah, Florida (PRWEB) October 15, 2012

A gap of time is usually required from the time that damage is reported until a written quote is generated. The peak times for roofing companies in Florida is the period between August and October. Any damage that happens to a roof or request for emergency services during this time could be harder to obtain.

The Roofing Emporium company has upgraded its local services to make it simpler for homeowners to get the services they need. The addition of the online quotation process is one that is unique to the Roofing Emporium website.

Contractor verification is one aspect that homeowners must go through when searching for a qualified roofing company. There are some companies that do not offer services as a licensed company in Florida. The process of verification can be time consuming especially when damage is waiting to be assessed or repaired.

The Roofing Emporium contractors are state licensed in Florida to repair residential roofing systems. These same contractors have received commercial licenses to offer the same services to business owners.

Quality roofing materials are one of the things that help prevent roof deterioration. Things like algae, solar degeneration and wind damage can affect lower grade roof coverings. Companies that manufacture better products can help homeowners to have a higher level of protection if these products are used for repairs and installations.

The Roofing Emporium contractors use premier products by Owens Corning. This roofing materials company is one of the few that manufacture hurricane and weather resistant roofing materials.

The new online quote system enabled by Roof Link for Hialeah, FL residents and others in North Florida can be accessed here. Homeowners and business owners still have the option of using a local number to schedule an assessment or hire contracting services offline.

New improvements to roofing materials are made annually as older products are retired. More emphasis has been placed on businesses to be more energy efficient by the year 2016.

The commercial materials now offered by Roofing Emporium contractors include metal, PVC and other lighter roof coverings. These materials often work well with vent installation and solar panel integration.

One feature that has been improved by the Roofing Emporium website is the ability to take online quotes.

In its efforts to provide building owners and facility managers with sustainable, durable roofing solutions, Tremco Roofing and Building Maintenance is proud to announce its new AlphaGuard series of fluid applied roofing systems.

Beachwood, OH (PRWEB) October 13, 2012

AlphaGuard MT is both very versatile and technologically advanced, said Ed Buczek, the companys AlphaGuard product manager. The MT refers to its moisture-triggered curing mechanism, which is far more dependable than the moisture-cured mechanism of commodity coating systems. This benefits building owners, facility managers and occupants because it allows the roof to be installed and operational much more quickly, saving them time on the project as well as money. AlphaGuard MT is also very low odor, a bonus for those occupying the building while the roof is being installed. The system is easy to maintain and if the need arises is also easy to repair. Full warranties will help keep the AlphaGuard MT system sustainable for the long haul.

The AlphaGuard MT system is an excellent choice for restoring almost any kind of aging but still functional roof. This includes modified bitumen, built-up and single ply, as well as roofs with exposed or buried roof membranes that were applied to concrete, continued Buczek. For use over metal, gypsum, cementitious wood fiber and concrete decking which requires standard insulation board, the AlphaGuard MT Plus system is available. This solution incorporates a tough, completely waterproof polyester base sheet set in odorless polyurethane adhesive beneath a full AlphaGuard MT system. This belt and suspenders approach combines proven solid, redundant design with state-of-the-art moisture-triggered polyurethane technology.

The AlphaGuard MT system is a single component, fully reinforced, aliphatic polyurethane, moisture-triggered roofing system composed of a base coat reinforced with a glass mat for durability and a top coat; both coats are applied with rollers, minimizing the amount of equipment that will be on a buildings roof. The white, highly reflective top coat can help lower a buildings energy usage and can be tinted to aesthetically match the buildings other roof levels. The system carries FM Approvals RoofNav ratings, is UL fire-rated, complies with the Florida Building Code and meets ASTM 7311. Additional benefits of the AlphaGuard MT system include excellent resistance to chemicals, traffic, hail and mold/mildew/fungus as well as superior cold weather flexibility, tensile strength and elongation properties that help make it extremely tough.

Commercial roofing contractor Orlando, FL company has expanded in North Florida. Services have been upgraded by Roofing Emporium to include both residential and commercial roof repair and replacement services in and around the Orlando area.

Orlando, FL (PRWEB) October 12, 2012

As the hurricane season in Florida ceases, some homeowners and business owners are likely to seek roof upgrade services. Strengthening an existing roof structure is one of the services that professional roofing companies can provide.

One area of expansion that Roofing Emporium has undertaken is with its online web presence. New and helpful information is now added daily to the RoofingEmporium.com website to help homeowners and business owners that are searching for roofing information.

Commercial Roofing Contractor Orlando, FL Company Expands in North Florida

The premier Northern Virginia Roofing Contractor, Style Roofing, expands its No Payment Until Job Is Completed Warranty."

Fairfax, VA (PRWEB) October 10, 2012

Style Roofing was already one of the most trusted Northern Virginia roofing contractors. Not only has the family-owned company been in business for over two decades, but they offer a ten-year service warranty on all roof replacements on top of the manufacturers warranty on roofing products. This new warranty clearly sets them apart from their competition.

Homeowners may well be wary -- after all, any roofing contractor can say that theyll be done on time and under budget. However, Bill Rafferty, Style Roofings owner, has taken that into consideration. We know that homeowners hate surprises -- we do too. And after 20 years in the roofing business, we know that reassuring homeowners that there wont be any surprises goes a very long way to making happy customers. So thats why weve always offered everything in writing. Five thousand happy customers over twenty years has shown us were on the right track, he laughs.

Style Roofing sits down with each homeowner to discuss the solutions that best fit their needs. Once a service is agreed upon, all prospective clients are given a written proposal detailing the work to be done. Once the proposal is agreed upon, a contract is signed binding Style Roofing to the work to be delivered. Each agreement includes proof of insurance and a copy of Style Roofings Class A Contractors License. They go out of their way to reassure potential clients that their homes roof will be in good hands.

Rafferty continues, Over the years weve learned that our clients appreciated a detailed proposal, and the time we took to explain their options. But there was still a big sticking point; clients were nervous to hand over a large deposit. And who could blame them, with the number of fly-by-night roofers out there? So we decided to make the decision easy. We wouldnt take their money until the work was done. We know homeowners take a leap of faith when they entrust us with the job, so we wanted to erase any doubts for them.

Style Roofings No Payment Until Work Is Completed Warranty is just another reason why so many Northern Virginia homeowners choose them over other roofing companies.

About Style Roofing

Style Roofing is a family-owned roofing company founded in 1992. With 20 years of roofing and siding experience and over 5,000 happy customers, Style Roofing maintains their commitment to service and excellence by using only the best products and the most skilled tradesmen.
