Laura Wertman Celebrates 10 years with Jurin Roofing Services as Marketing Manager
Chatham, Ontario Canada (PRWEB) April 08, 2014
Enviroshake Inc. is pleased to announce the introduction of the Enviroslate roofing product, to its expanding product line. The Enviroslate offers the look of natural slate at of the installed cost. Just like all of Enviroshake Incs products, the Enviroslate is a composite roof tile made from 95% post-industrial recycled material.
The proprietary formulation and manufacturing process results in a product that has enhanced durability, longevity, and performance. Enviroshake Inc. products are not susceptible to mold, mildew, fungus, rot or insect infestation. They are also hail resistant and can withstand severe weather conditions and temperature fluctuations and extremes. The Enviroslate can even withstand wind speeds up to 180 MPH, or level 5 hurricane strength winds. The Enviroslate can be installed more efficiently than natural slate and once installed is maintenance free. The Enviroslate will retain its physical properties and look for decades, and is even sold with a lifetime warranty that is fully transferable within the first 50 years for residential projects, and a 50 year warranty for commercial projects.
Enviroslate is available in two profiles (All bundles are pre-shuffled to include a mixture of both profiles). Every tile is 20 long and 12 wide. Enviroslate is installed at a 9 exposure, and can be installed on roof slopes 2:12 and greater.
Enviroshake Inc. is pleased to offer various colour options to emulate a natural slate roof. Enviroslate is currently available in Onyx black, Charcoal grey, Stone grey, with Sage green and Plum purple to be launched at a later date. By design all Enviroshake Inc. products will have slight variations in shading and thickness of the tiles, giving the product a natural look on the roof.
The Enviroslate offers significant advantages over natural slate in that it does not require any annual repairs, is robust and will not crack or chip, is significantly easier to install than natural slate, does not require any reinforcement to the roof deck, and can be installed on re-roof applications of homes who did not originally have slate.
Weve launched the new Enviroslate as a response to a growing demand from our customers for a slate look. We believe the Enviroslate truly replicates the look of natural slate, and have been receiving extremely positive feedback from clients of ours in regards to the aesthetic. There is a growing demand for the look of high end roofing products, that offer maintenance free lifetime performance, and Enviroshake Inc. strives to not only meet, but exceed our customers expectations in regards to the aesthetic, and performance of our products. says Ashley Smith, director of marketing for Enviroshake Inc.
"I recently saw Enviroslate at the Toronto National Home Show, and thought the product looked outstanding. In fact it is one of the most authentic looking imitation slate products that I have seen to date. I would not hesitate to present this as a roofing option to my clients interested in the slate look." Stated Steve Hamelin of Steve Hamelin Architecture in Oakville Ontario.
"I have seen other synthetic slate products installed in the Calgary marketplace and nothing comes close to the authentic look of Enviroslate. Goodmen Roofing is looking forward to the new opportunity from Enviroshake Inc." Said Nathan Gill of Goodmen Roofing in Calgary Alberta.
Enviroshake Inc. is the sole manufacturer of the Enviroshake, Enviroshingle, and Enviroslate roofing products. Enviroshake Inc. has been in business since 1998 making us a pioneer in the composite roofing industry. No other composite or synthetic product on the market today, can rival the combination of Enviroshakes authentic look, durability, performance, and longevity. Enviroshake Inc. is ISO-9001-2008 certified, and have been operating under this certification for over 10 years. Enviroshake Inc. prides itself on engaging in best practices, and we are always striving to minimize our environmental footstep.

Enviroshake Inc. Launches Enviroslate Composite Roofing Tile
Lenexa, Kansas (PRWEB) April 08, 2014
With the onset of spring storms in Mississippi and North Carolina, homeowners across the country are preparing for potentially devastating weather that can come with high winds and hail. Polymer shake and slate roofing tiles from DaVinci Roofscapes can help protect homes from such severe weather.
In 2013 many homeowners - especially those in Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska --- became storm-weary as 943 tornadoes were reported throughout the United States. Some of those residents, like Julie McSweeney of Omaha, Neb., were fortunate that only flying debris from high winds and hail damaged their homes. However those weather conditions were enough to require McSweeney to require a new roof.
Homeowner Reflections
"After terrible hail storms devastated hundreds of homes in our area last year we began seeing many impact-resistant DaVinci Roofscapes polymer roofs installed," says McSweeney. "We wanted a worry-free, beautiful, best-in-class roof that could withstand future storms and we got it with our new Bellafort Slate roof."
One of the most popular product lines available from DaVinci Roofscapes, Bellafort polymer roofing tiles include a leading edge tab and a self-aligning ledge, helping to reduce the installation time for the products. A square of Bellafort tiles (with 100 pieces per square) weighs just 190 pounds. This lower tile weight also reduces the total installed cost by lowering the transportation costs.
All DaVinci tiles resist curling, cracking, fading, mold, algae, fungus and insects, making them ideal for installation in a wide variety of geographic areas. They also resist impact from flying debris and hail associated with storms. Just as with other DaVinci products, the Bellafort tiles are 100 percent recyclable and come with a 50-year limited warranty.
Insights from a Professional
One Omaha roofing company spending 16 hours a day, 7 days a week re-roofing homes in the Omaha area last year was Weatherguard, Inc. After hail storms careened through the city and that left craters in roofs the size of tennis balls, the company installed more than 100 DaVinci roofs in 2013.
"Storm damage was so severe in 2013 that it stripped some roofs of their tiles and broke shingles right off other roofs," says Trent Lovewell, vice president of operations for Weatherguard, Inc. "Our sixty employees were constantly busy installing the Bellafort slate and shake polymer tiles to replace damaged roofs. This is our preferred composite roofing product because it's impact-resistant, has a strong warranty and offers a great cost value to the homeowner."

Spring Storms - DaVinci Roofscapes Advises to "Get Your Roof Ready"
April 8, 2014 - West Coast League (WCL) Yakima Valley Pippins The Yakima Valley Pippins have added Austin Woodward and Max George, both of whom will play for Oregon State next year, to the inaugural roster. With the additions, the roster now sits at 20 players, with more signings to come. Oregon State (25-6,9-3 PAC 12) is currently sitting in second place of the PAC-12 behind Washington (22-6-1,10-2 PAC 12) midway through the regular season.
"The Oregon State baseball program speaks for itself," Pippins Head Coach Marcus McKimmy said. "I'm very excited to welcome two players to Yakima from a top-ten baseball program in the country."
Woodward will join the Beavers' roster as a pitcher next season after transferring from Linn-Benton Community College. He was a second team all-NWAACC pitcher last season at Linn-Benton and is a former 1A/2A state player of the year at Union High School (Union, OR). He is currently red-shirting for the Beavers this spring.
"Austin is a guy I've had to pleasure to see pitch and coach at the junior college level already," McKimmy said. "Put simply, he is a Winner. He, like Max, can fill many different roles for the Pippins because he is so versatile. I have complete confidence using him as a nightly starter or out of the bullpen. Additionally, he will be counted on to bring leadership to our pitching staff and in the locker room."
George, a native of Parker, CO, will head to Corvallis next season after finishing up his senior year at Regis Jesuit High School. George is an infielder who was named to Perfect Game's 3rd team All-American list this year.
"Max is going to open eyes immediately as a Pippin," McKimmy said. "He has above-average speed which will put pressure on every defense we play. Pair that with his ability to play multiple positions and be a middle of the order hitter, he gives our lineup a ton of versatility during a very full summer schedule. His tools on offense have a chance to be very special as he develops as a graduating senior."
The Yakima Valley Pippins will begin their quest for a WCL Championship at Yakima County Stadium on June 6th, 2014 at 7:05 P.M. against East Division rival Wenatchee. Tickets are now on sale for the 2014 season, including full-season and partial-season packages, as well as select team merchandise. Those interested in being part of something great from the start are asked to contact Noel Zanchelli at 206.271.7820 or by email at noel@pippinsbaseball.com.
You can reach the Pippins offices at 509-575-HITS (4487). The team store, stadium improvements and other fan-friendly amenity projects will begin in early spring 2014.

Pippins Sign Duo From Oregon State
Theres an extra dose of magic aboard the Disney Magic, Disneys first cruise ship, with new spaces, re-imagined areas and exciting additions for the whole family. Guests can now experience new adventures from bow to stern throughout their journey on the cruise ship that set the standard for oceangoing majesty and family fun. From a new grand atrium lobby and a childrens area of super hero proportions to a three-story water thrill slide and a spa to stimulate the Senses, there are plenty of new and magical surprises in store for cruise guests. The ship features fun new experiences with Marvel charactersthe first time super heroes from the Marvel universe have been introduced on a Disney Cruise Line ship. We have always been committed to reinvesting in our fleet and continuously making shipboard enhancements that elevate the guest experience, says Karl Holz, president of Disney Cruise Line. What weve done with the Disney Magic is yet another step forward in our commitment to delivering the absolute best family vacations at sea. Storytelling is at the heart of everything we do, says Joe Lanzisero, senior creative vice president for Walt Disney Imagineering. Walt Disney was a master storyteller and knew how to engage peoples emotions into stories. Our job is to take what we learned from Walt and apply it to the experiences on board our ships. Here are some highlights of new magic in store for guests aboard the Disney Magic:
A grand first impression When guests board the Disney Magic, they enter the grand atrium lobby that is redesigned to be elegant art deco, inspired by elements of the sea, according to Lanzisero. Filmmaking is the history of our company and in film the establishing shot sets the scene, he says. This is the same with the atrium, as we begin telling our story. The spacious and spectacular three-deck lobby features hand-tufted, custom-made carpet that dazzles in a palette of vibrant coral, blue and aquamarine seashell-inspired designs. The art deco atrium chandelier is inspired by rays of the sun and the glisten of the surface of the ocean. Opulent furnishings, a grand piano and giant portholes recall the days of early 20th century ocean liners. The lobbys centerpiece is a bronze statue of Helmsman Mickey, ever-smiling and keeping watch as guests stroll past. The famed statue, which has stood in the atrium since the ship was launched, has received a special makeover bringing new luster to its golden hue.
Disney, Disney-Pixar & Marvel characters join the fun Disneys Oceaneer Club, open to 3- to- 12-year-old children, is a completely re-imagined area that transports children to the magical realms of brave super heroes, adventuresome toys, fanciful fairies and Mickey Mouses club for creativity and fun. With Marvel now a part of the Walt Disney Company family, this marks the first time the super hero icons of Marvel have been introduced on a Disney Cruise Line ship. Marvel and Walt Disney Imagineers have created a new space for children to enter into the Marvel Universe. Marvels The Avengers make their presence known in an epic way aboard the Disney Magic, with Marvels Avengers Academy calling Disneys Oceaneer Club its new seaward home. Young crime-fighters are transported to a high-tech command post used by The Avengers for special missions and operations training. Throughout the base, displays featuring some of the equipment that helps to make The Avengers the earths mightiest heroesIron Mans suit of armor, Captain Americas shield and Thors hammerinspire super hero recruits through their academy missions. Marvels Avengers Academy is a multi-day, immersive entertainment experience where children interact with Marvel characters and unleash their inner super heroes. Adjacent to Marvels Avengers Academy is Andys Room, where stars of the Disney-Pixar Toy Story trilogy come to life in a multi-level space. Stocked with all of Andys favorite toys, the room features a larger-than-life Mr. Potato Head, a giant version of the lovable piggy bank, Hamm and a Slinky Dog slide. In Mickey Mouse Club the room is splashed with Mickeys signature colors of red, yellow and black, kids can create crafts and play games on ear-shaped tables. The club also features Goofy Gears, an oversized activity where kids play with wacky, magnetic spinning gears. But the kid-sized fun doesnt stop there!
H2 OH! The upper ship decks of the Disney Magic have been redesigned for plenty of splashtacular fun, with waterfall adventures that include a three-story water slide for thrill-seekers and a Huey, Dewey and Louie-themed toddler splash zone for smaller ducklings. From small children to teens to adults, everyone will have a space to have fun in the sun and water. We added more water play areas, dynamic slides, interactive elements for the kids, and more shade, says Lanzisero. Water thrills are found on the AquaDunk, a three-story body slide that begins with a surprise launch. Riders step inside a translucent tube and await the near-vertical launch that takes place when the floor beneath them opens like a trap door. The drop sends guests on an exhilarating, swift and splashy ride in a translucent tube that extends 20 feet over the side of the ship. Guests taller than 48 inches can enjoy the AquaDunk. Guests can also soak in the sun and the water fun with AquaLab, an interactive water playground open to kids age 3 and older. In the AquaLab, families can frolic among pop jets, geysers and bubblers in this fun and fanciful 1,800-square-foot space, while the Twist n Spout water slide gets them delightfully drenched with more than 250 feet of sliding fun of loops and turns. Twist n Spout is for guests between 38 and 64 inches tall. Tots up to age 3 can play in the new Nephews Splash Zone, a splash-a-second area dedicated to interactive fun and starring Donald Ducks mischievous nephews, Huey, Dewey and Louie. The area features water play with pop jets, squirting figures of Donald Ducks nephews and plenty of high seas hijinks.
Disney dining with an extra dash of Pixie Dust New restaurants and new technology are on the menu for the restaurants aboard Disney Magic. Animators Palate, one of the most popular restaurants on the Disney ships, is updated with all-new, animation-adorned walls and larger high-definition flat-screens to provide the best views of the animation magic that takes place all around. On every Disney Magic cruise, a heaping helping of entertainment is served up during the tremendously popular Animation Magic dinner show that celebrates the magic of Disney animation and allows families to create and participate in an innovative way. First unveiled on the Disney Fantasy, Animation Magic invites guests to create their own characters that magically spring to life, become fully animated and join the show onscreen. The vibrancy of Rio de Janeiro creates an energetic atmosphere in Cariocas, a new restaurant named after Donald Ducks parrot pal in The Three Caballeros, Jose Carioca. Festooned with lighted lanterns, the restaurant is designed to be fun by day, elegant by night, says Lanzisero. During the day, theres a festival theme and, when night falls, the atmosphere transforms into an after-hours scene of Rio de Janeiro, with softly illuminated lanterns flickering overhead. Cariocas has replaced Parrot Cay restaurant, formerly on the Disney Magic. Another new restaurant to the Disney Magic is Cabanas, a casual dining experience with food and beverage stations during daytime hours and a table-service restaurant during dinner. The Australian setting of the Disney-Pixar animated classic Finding Nemo inspires the dcor with hints of the films fishy and feathered friends throughout the restaurant. Cabanas, which replaced Topsider Buffet, has also expanded. More indoor space has been added, increasing the total square-footage of air-conditioned area by nearly 3,400 square feet to more than 9,460 square feet and a total of 455 seats.
The funs just begun when nighttime comes After a day of soaking in the sun on the decks and enjoying activities around the ship, Disney Magic offers big city-style fun in After Hours, the nighttime entertainment district. An all-new lineup of clubs includes venues for dancing, comedy, music and variety shows. After Hours replaces Beat Street, formerly on the Disney Magic. It was our goal to create a sleek and sophisticated adult experience in After Hours says Lanzisero. Each of the three clubs has a different feel that complements the others. Fathoms night club is a celebration of the sea that utilizes special effects, lighting and sound to create different atmospheres from early evening to night. For guests seeking a more low-key nighttime experience, there is Keys piano lounge. Whether guests want to relax with a cocktail and the soft sounds of a piano or wind down after an evening of dancing and revelry, Keys provides a refined retreat.
Open up, and say spa For the ultimate in relaxation and pampering, the enhanced Senses Spa & Salon offers many indulgences. Redesigned with a sleek and contemporary style, this haven of personal harmony provides an unmatched ocean-view environment. The size of the spa has been expanded by 725 square feet, to a total size of nearly 11,500 square feet. A new Smile Spa offers teeth whitening services, a new barbershop offers services for the gentlemen and the new Chill Spa provides treatments especially for teens 13 to 17 years of age.
Family fun in the D Lounge Another re-imagined area, D Lounge, offers a variety of family-friendly games, shows, dances and activities designed for all ages. Colorful and contemporary, this space encourages creative and kinetic fun. Families can enjoy entertainment, game shows and activities together in D Lounge which replaces Studio Sea, formerly on the Disney Magic.
Putting more room in staterooms Disney Cruise Line knows that traveling families always need more space, so features are included in each room to provide more usable space. Bed frames are elevated to provide storage space underneath. The bathrooms include the split-bath feature that Disney introduced to the cruise industryproviding even greater convenience to guests.

Ah, spring. A time when a young mans fancy turns to thoughts of power washing and window replacement?
Well, for some their fancy may turn to thoughts of love, but for most of us spring is a time when we shake out the dust and detritus of winter and start cleaning, repairing and generally sprucing up our homes, gardens and lawns.
For James Fucini, spring is go time where he works, Old Yankee Painting of Southington.
This is an extremely busy time of the year for us. When the weather breaks, thats when people want to start getting their projects done. Last week we had eight to nine telephone calls for estimates. Yesterday we had 16.
Fucini is a manager at Old Yankee Painting, which, along with Prestige Power Washing, comes under the umbrella of the firm Tonnetti Window Company.
All three companies, he said, are currently so busy with spring projects that they wont have a slow day again until probably November.
Its just endless projects that people are looking to do right now. People are looking to build decks and additions onto their houses, new roofs, paint exteriors and interiors, do their lawns. Its just everything you can think of.
After this particularly cold and snowy winter, roof and window replacements are especially high on many homeowners to do lists, he added.
The rest is here:
Its that time of year to think about home improvements
