Home Builder Developer - Interior Renovation and Design

Updated December 05, 2019 15:42:37

It's going to be a long, hot summer for the Wilkes family.

Their home in Sydney's outer suburbs has westerly facing windows and last year, the first in their new build, the electricity bill for summer was $1,000.

This year, they're hoping it will be significantly less, having scraped together enough cash to install solar panels on the roof.

"It was definitely a stretch," said Crystal Wilkes, who is currently at home on maternity leave after having her third child.

"After tax time we were like, we've got a refund from tax. We decided to put that plus a small amount of savings [together] and cash flowed the rest.

"You get very good at eating beans and rice to get it together."

But have the Wilkes made the right decision? Is getting solar the best way to cut down on costs this summer?

About a decade ago, many state governments were keen to encourage solar uptake, introducing generous rebates and feed-in tariffs.

It created a lot of hype around the financial benefits of solar, and hundreds of thousands of homes took it up.

Those same offers are now long gone.

According to Chris Barnes from consumer group Choice, the answer is pretty clear.

"In almost all cases for almost all homes, yes, it's still worth it," he said.

"That's a reflection of the fact the price of the actual panels has gone down and the capacity of the solar panels has gone up. So really it makes sense to put as many on your roof as you can afford."

The Wilkes bought a 6.6-kilowatt system for $7,500 after the federal government rebate, which was about $4,000.

This out-of-pocket cost included the panels themselves and the inverter, which transfers the power into usable electricity.

That's about the average size and cost of a solar installation, according to Choice.

But prices do vary and could be between $4,000 to $8,000, after the rebate, and depending on the quality and the size you're after.

"There's a really wide range of pricing," Sarah Morton, from Green Energy, said.

"Solar panels definitely vary in quality. For more peace of mind you could choose Tier 1 panels, which have a better reputation for performance and quality."

Mr Barnes suggests getting recommendations and shopping around for installers, while avoiding door-to-door sales tactics.

He also says it's important to understand the product warranty on the panels and inverter.

For example, a 10-year product warranty on the panels and at least five years on the inverter is fairly standard.

"You'll often see a 25-year warranty mentioned. Be a little careful with that, because that's actually a performance warranty," he said.

"What they're saying is over its 25-year expected lifespan, this panel will deteriorate in a predictable and linear fashion and in the 25 years will still be producing 80 per cent of what they claimed."

This is where it gets a bit tricky.

In the past, different rebates have been offered separately by state governments and the federal government.

All states have stopped offering generous rebates for solar installation, except for Victoria, which still has a rebate of up to $2,225 for households earning less than $180,000.

Some other states are trialling schemes for low-income earners. It's worth looking at the Department of Energy website to see whether you can claim for this.

And on top of all of this, most households can still get a rebate from the federal government's small-scale renewable energy scheme.

"When you buy a solar panel system each will be rated to a certain number of certificates and each is worth a certain amount," Mr Barnes explained.

"At the moment they're worth just under $40 per certificate typically you're looking at about $600 per kilowatt of solar system you add on. So it does add up."

Usually the installer will process the certificates and consumers pay the balance of the cost.

It's always going to be different for each household. But for the Wilkes, they're thinking about four years.

Why?

Well, there's the size of the system itself, how much electricity a household uses, how much is sold back to the grid and where you live.

"If you live in a place that gets a lot of sun north-west Victoria or inland New South Wales or Queensland you're going to get more output from the same sized solar system than if you're living in southern Victoria or Tasmania," Ms Morton said.

With three young children under six, and the baby using cloth nappies, the Wilkes's washing machine is constantly on.

Like most Australians, the family tended in the past to use a lot of appliances in the evening, but since getting solar they've changed their habits.

They use an app to monitor their usage and set timers on their appliances to run during the day.

That way they're using the solar energy produced on their roof for free, rather than paying for electricity from the grid.

"I worked out how to set our appliances the dishwasher, washing machine, we've got a heat pump drier, so to put a delay on them to operate during the day when the Sun's up. We just don't use things overnight anymore," Ms Wilkes said.

"With the app we can also see the drain of the air-con when we do switch it on. We've learnt that after the house is cold we switch it to a dehumidifier setting which is a lot less expensive to run."

Any extra electricity they don't use is sold back into the grid, which means they get some extra money.

It also makes the payback period for their panels shorter.

Well, solar power is only generated during the day.

You need to ask yourself: are you better off using that during the day? Or keeping old habits and using the bulk of your electricity at night, essentially buying it from the grid?

"As a general rule for most people, you're far better off using your own solar power and using as little as you can from the grid," Mr Barnes said.

About a decade ago, retailers were paying up to 60 cents for every kilowatt hour that households fed back into the grid.

Only those who are still enjoying the benefits of a legacy contract get to keep reaping the benefits of that deal.

For everyone else, those days are long gone.

But every retailer can offer a different price for your power. It can vary from nothing to 30 cents a kilowatt hour in the Northern Territory.

"It varies significantly between retailers. Even within a state, it can vary a lot. People should shop around," Ms Morton said.

Victoria is the only state to have a mandatory minimum rate which is set by the Essential Services Commission. It can either be a single rate (which is currently 12 cents per kilowatt hour) or a varying rate depending on time of day (between 9.9 and 14.6 cents per kilowatt hour).

The Wilkes get about 11 cents per kilowatt hour for the electricity they send to the grid, but are paying double that for any electricity they buy.

In short, that's not an unusual story. It's common to pay way more for electricity than what you'd earn if you sold it back to the grid.

"At the moment we're actually ahead, we've just come in to credit. We're selling more back to the grid than we're using," Ms Wilkes said.

Despite being keen on sustainable energy, the Wilkes won't be getting a battery any time soon.

"We looked in to getting a battery but the payback was closer to 10 years and the battery's life is about 10 years. So it doesn't work out," Ms Wilkes said.

Mr Barnes agrees.

"Our view is that for most people, [batteries] don't make full economic sense yet," he said.

"If you're in the NT and you're getting a generous feed-in tariff, you're probably better off getting that than putting your surplus energy into a battery that may not pay for itself in time."

As technology advances, it's hoped batteries will either last longer, or the prices will come down.

"We're still watching and waiting for that magic moment to happen," Mr Barnes said.

Solar panels seem like a good idea. But are they really worth it? - ABC News

Martin Davila, of Davila Construction, has been cited by the U.S. Department of Labors Occupational Safety and Health Administration for exposing employees to fall hazards at threeMissouri job sites.

OSHA also alleges Davila Construction violated electrical safety rules and allowed a gas can to be stored in close proximity to combustion engines. The residential roofing company is facing up to $205,098 in penalties.

OSHA said Davila Construction failed to properly train employees on how to manage safety hazards while working high above ground. The agency also said Davila Construction did not provide workers with training for safe ladder useor offer protection from pneumatic nail guns.

Davila Construction was cited in 2014 for not developing or maintaining a safety program.

Davila has 15 business days to comply, request an informal conference or dispute the findings.

Roofing businesses on the central coast see a spike in service calls following the rainy weather

It seems like the rain may be sticking around a little while longer, and that has some local businesses seeing an increase in calls for service.

The owner of Golden State Roofing says he has been experiencing three times as many calls the last couple of days with the first big rain of the season on the central coast.

"People put their maintenance or their roofing off until it rains...or leaks that they didn't have before pop up. So yeah my phone rings off the hook," said Christopher McCluskey, owner of Golden State Roofing.

It is a sentiment felt by many roofers in the area and the proverb when it rains it pours could not be closer to the truth.

"It all depends on the situation. Anywhere between 500 and 5000. You never know- it just depends on the situation... the severity of the leak and how long they've let the condition of the roof deteriorate before taking care of it," said McCluskey.

With the start of the chillier rainy season on the central coast some heating and cooling companies are also seeing a spike in calls, but not everyone.

"I have other people in the industry that they see a swing during this time of the year. So as far as my business is concerned I'd probably say more so during the summer time," said Ryan Cruz, owner of WAYCO Heating and Air Conditioning.

Repairmen say maintenance is of the utmost importance... especially when dealing with more extreme temperatures.

"Not everyone looks at their roof and they don't realize that everything they own is underneath that roof. So if people payed more attention to it- it would definitely help them out in the long run," said McCluskey.

According to one owner of a roofing business, they are always monitoring weather conditions to know when to anticipate more of those service calls.

Solar Integrated Roofing Corporation Finalizes Acquisition Agreement with Milholland Solar Electric and Roofing - Yahoo Finance

It was 1958, and Dale Lovell was heading to a job in Schuyler when he was pulled over by a state patrolman.

Lovell was driving a 1949 International flatbed pickup truck which, according to his son, Mike, everything that (could be) wrong with it was wrong with it.

No headlights, no taillights, (a) broken window, everything, Mike said. The state patrolman happened to know him by name and said, Dale, where are you going with this contraption? He said, Im going over to Schuyler, Ive got a job mopping up a roof. As soon as I get that done, Ill be able to get this fixed.

After his run-in with the patrolman, Dale began the job of mopping up a banks roof with hot tar. As he was doing his work on the roof, someone from a car dealership came up to him asking for an estimate for his roof.

He got done with the bank and went to the car dealership, Mike said. When he got done with that, the post office got a hold of him. So he went over and mopped the post office (roof). By the time he got done in Schuyler, he had done five jobs and he made pretty good money over there doing that.

Those five jobs proved to be the starting point for a long and fruitful career. Dale and his wife, Roberta, started Dales Roofing in Columbus in 1960, and from there, he earned a reputation across the town as a hard-working, committed roofer.

Over 59 years, his family estimates that he had worked on hundreds of roofs all over Platte County, and the business itself was a family affair. From his wife to his son, Mike, who became his business partner in 2006, the family had its hands all over the business and worked hard to make it one of the more prominent roofing companies in Columbus.

Next year will be the 60th year of Dales Roofing; however, its founder wont be there to see it. On Oct. 19, with his son in the room by his side, Dale died at the age of 88. Mike knew that health problems were affecting him, as there was a litany of issues he'd been dealing with prior to his passing.

He had congestive heart failure, kidney failure, he had Type-2 diabetes and he had macular degeneration, Mike said. At 88 years old, it led up to it. His health wasnt the best.

The news of his death touched the family that had spent so much time with him. His grandson, Jon, who works as a surveyor for a consulting group in Omaha, said that his commitment to his customers set him apart from others in the field.

He was loyal, he was generous, faith-driven, honest and hard-working, Jon said. He raised 10 kids, thats an accomplishment on its own. They never went hungry.

In addition to the 10 children, he had 28 grandchildren and 58 great-grandchildren. They all have plenty of memories of the late man in action, including one instance when Jon was in high school.

When you look at a roof, you dont know whats underneath it. When you tear into something and you find bad wood or something, we would take the time to explain it to customers. Now, with a phone on your camera, you can take pictures and say, Heres what we have, because an older person cant get up on the roof. I would take pictures and show them, This is whats bad (and) this is what we have to do.

Lovell's roofing legacy to remain strong - Columbus Telegram

MERIDIAN, Idaho Many people spend Black Friday rushing to the mall or big box stores hunting for deals.

But employees at Signature Roofingdecided to spend the day doing something else: giving back to their community.

The roofing company is filling up gas tanks - for free - for single parents at Paul's Service Center at the corner of Main Street and Franklin Road in Meridian. Employees hoisted "Free Gas" signs and waved drivers into the station, where they were greeted with candy canes, Christmas music, and free coffee and hot chocolate along with the fill-up.

Most of the people who turned in had some variation of the same question:Is this real? What's the catch?

No catch, says Koki Gonzalez, Signature Roofing's sales and marketing manager.

"We just want to let others know that we're out here and we care, we care about our community," he said.

Joel Cano, owner of the roofing company, agreed.

"We always say 'people first,' and that's what we're about," he said.

For Cano, the gas giveaway is a way to pay forward the kindness others had shown him growing up in a family of migrant workers, where money was often tight.

"If we didn't have enough money to play sports, I could name a dozen families that would help us play, and got us shoes," he said. "I'm entrenched in the community, I love it."

RELATED: Idaho Life: What are you thankful for?

This marks the second year Signature Roofing has filled up people's tanks for free. Last year, Gonzalez said, the company paid for about 1,500 gallons of gas total.

"Single parents that are needing just a little hand up on a day where everybody is spending some money, we'd like to give something back to them," he said.

They might break that record this year.

"If the good music keeps coming on, we might be here all night, we'll see how it goes," Cano said with a laugh. "We might go broke today, but we'll have a lot of fun doing it."

(MENAFN - GetNews) Recon Roofing, family-owned and -operated, has over thirty-five years of experience providing excellent Jupiter roof repair services. They take pride in being able to assist with all Jupiter roofing needs.

JUPITER, FL - Dec 4, 2019 - Licensed and insured, Recon Roofing has provided honest services for over thirty-five years. Delivering their special brand of Jupiter roof repair services to all of Palm Beach County, they have maintained an outstanding rating online. This puts them far ahead of the competition.

They continue to deliver with services that can maintain the life of your roof from beginning to end. This means they can install a brand-new roof, assist with maintaining it, and then replacing it when the lifetime is complete.

It typically takes 25 years for a roof to lose its protective qualities and it's time for a new one. With proper maintenance,Jupiter roofing clientscan sometimes squeeze a few extra years out of it. Not to mention, with the professional services Recon provides, clients have the option to improve the internal life of their building.

For both commercial and residential properties,Recon Roofinghas innovative processes and materials that can increase the reflectivity and waterproofing of the roof. Waterproofing, of course, can extend the lifetime of the roof by avoiding unnecessary retaining of water leading to water damage. Reflectivity is what bounces the heat from the sun off the roof rather than absorbing it and sending it straight into the building. With certain coatings, clients can knock up to 50 degrees off the surface temperature of their roofs. This means that less heat is allowed inside, thus lowering energy costs. This is a great opportunity for both residential and commercial property owners.

Another thing to consider when keeping up with a roof is normal wear and tear. Again, people usually get 25 working years out of a roof. This is due to the elements outside that can cause damage to things like the shingles and the drain pipes that safely guide water and debris away to a location for dumping. Recon Roofing offers a service they call a 'tune-up in which they come to inspect all of this and more. They fix any loose nails and shingles, replace any missing parts, tighten up things around the drains, and even unclog the gutters. This no longer has to be a dreaded chore around the house.

About the Company

Locally operated out of Jupiter, FL, Recon Roofing's owners have over thirty-five years of experience withJupiter roof repair . They are passionate about helping people in southern Florida keep a strong and healthy roof over their heads. This is how the keep providing five-star service for every client they encounter.
