Home Builder Developer - Interior Renovation and Design

UNITY Four years after the initial town approval and funding of the project, the Unity Elementary School building is on target to be open Sept. 2.

Were making strong progress on all fronts, said Ronald Bauer, executive vice president of Lebanon-based Trumbull-Nelson.

Trumbull-Nelson, Banwell Architect and Gordon Bristol, owners representative, were charged with getting the long-delayed project back on track earlier this year after the initial project manager and architect was let go by the school district.

Bauer met with school Principal Chip Baldwin, Unity School board members, the town code enforcement officer, a state Fire Marshals Office official and project architects at the project site Tuesday afternoon for the projects weekly meeting.

Several construction issues have been resolved, he said.

Possibly flammable foam installation used on the siding of the windows that the Fire Marshals Office would not allow has been cut out and replaced with fire retardant lumber, Bauer said.

That was a piece of the job that was very labor intensive, he said.

Additionally, the state Department of Education has tentatively approved the buildings floor plans, he said.

Some of the classrooms were too small, so some walls were knocked down and moved, Bauer said.

He has been pleasantly surprised by how little damage was caused by freezing temperatures in the building this winter, Bauer said.

The military uses drone aircraft to take out terrorists and for surveillance, but one local roofing company is using a drone to help its business domestically.

Luke Hansen, of White Castle Roofing, believes getting a birds-eye view for roofing estimates means an easier, safer job.

He uses an unmanned aircraft, commonly called a drone. The high-resolution video he gets tells him all he needs to know in a matter of minutes instead of hours.

The other day there was an apartment complex -- 11 buildings four stories tall -- that we blocked off six hours to see how many shingles had blown off. We flew over all the buildings, took a little quick video and it saved us five hours, Hansen said.

Hansen believes he can use a drone, despite a Federal Aviation Administration ban on commercial use. He referenced a video from Virginia where the pilot who shot it took the FAA to court and got a $10,000 fine dismissed.

What the judge said was these have been and are legal right now, Hansen said.

The FAA is appealing in the Virginia case, but it might not make any difference.

People are really starting to leave the FAA behind, said Matt Waite, with the University of Nebraska at Lincoln Drone Lab.

Waite said the technology is so much better and cheaper than it used to be and that people have stopped waiting for the FAA to come up with specific regulations.

IRVINE, CA -- Boral Roofing LLC, the nation's largest provider of clay and concrete roof tile, is launching over 30 new cool colors in California, ideal for both new construction and reroof applications. Boral Roofing is partnering with leading designers and colorists to introduce trending exterior color palettes.

Unlike select roofing materials, Boral Roofing's cool color range is available at no added cost to the consumer. Consumers can choose from a range of colors at a standard price. Boral Roofing leads the nation with the largest Cool Roof Rating Council tile listing and offers choice ENERGY STAR rated colors.

With the inherent beauty and energy benefits of concrete tile, cool roof colors do not have to be white. Boral Roofing offers a vibrant selection of earth tones, terra cottas and cool greys that meet or exceed cool roof standards. These beautiful cool colors are available in a wide range of styles and textures to fit any architectural design.

As the industry leader, Boral Roofing has been on the forefront of cool roofing with an established color range, continually expanding cool roof colors to fit new trends. Cool roofing is paramount in states such as California pursuing a net zero energy building code by 2020. California Title 24 building codes are requiring increased cool roof performance in select regions that take effect on July 1, 2014.

According to Kayla Kratz, Product Manager, these new colors will provide a great fit in the market with the increased demand of cool roof products, "There's a real need for building materials to have the highest standards of energy efficiency without compromising aesthetics," Kratz said. "Our goal with this new offering is to support our customers and provide the cool roof products they need," she added.

The California Title 24 Building Energy Efficiency Standards were established to reduce California's energy consumption. Cool roofs are highly reflective, highly emissive roofing materials that stay cooler than a normal roof under a hot summer sun, offering homeowners considerable energy cost savings.

About Boral Roofing: Boral Roofing LLC is a subsidiary of Boral USA and is the country's largest premium provider of complete roofing and re-roofing solutions for architects as well as commercial and residential builders. Boral Roofing operates 13 clay and concrete tile manufacturing plants throughout the U.S.
