Many business owners are not even aware of the way in which a roof can influence the energy-efficiency of their entire building. But with the help of a reliable Denton roofing company, they can choose the most energy-efficient roofs out there.
Metal roofs are, perhaps, the most energy-efficient roofing material for houses and buildings alike. They keep cool and can last much longer than other types of roofing systems. At the same time, they have a light weight and because of that they reduce the pressure put on the building’s general structure.
Asphalt can be another energy-efficient option for your commercial roof. Some types of asphalt shingles are more efficient than others, and you need to go for the ones with the lowest level of emissivity.
Slate shingles can also be highly energy-efficient, and they can resist very harsh weather conditions, fire damage and rot. They are also extremely long-lasting.
Green roofs can be yet another great option for your commercial roof. Apart from looking interesting and appealing from the commercial point of view, green roofs can do a lot to keep down cooling and heating costs. Another way to improve the energy efficiency of your building is by adding an extra layer of insulation.
