The roofing system in place was a Duro-Last 40 mil, prefabricated Energy Star rated membrane.

As you can see by the photos, the roofing system looks excellent, even though it is sixteen years old.  This system can be expected to perform for many years to come.

Once again, the use of a superior roofing product along with a professional installation by Superior Services R.S.H., Inc. is a winning combination!

The use of light colored reflective coatings not only provide a protective barrier against ultraviolet rays that break down roof membranes, but they also can reduce the roof surface temperatures by 40 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

In “Potential Benefits of Cool Roofs on Commercial Buildings: Conserving Energy, Saving Money and Reducing Emissions of Greenhouse Gases and Air Pollutants,” LBNL scientists Hashem Akbari and Ronnen Levinson estimate if roofs on 80 percent of air-conditioned commercial buildings in the U.S. were coated to qualify as cool roofs (a conservative 55% aged solar reflectance), the buildings’ owners would save more than 10,000 gigawatt hours of energy annually valued at about $725 million.  These energy savings also would result in an annual reduction of more than 6 megatons of carbon dioxide production, which is equivalent to the carbon dioxide emissions of about 1.25 million automobiles.

In conclusion, a quality roof coating formulated to ASTM International Performance Standards and properly selected for its intended application should provide years of service and benefit.

The existing roof on the church building consisted of a layer of dimensional shingles.  The roof pitch was too low for shingles and resulted in continuous problems with the shingle roof.  Our solution was to remove the shingles and install a new Tan colored Duro-Last Roof System, mechanically attached to the deck.  Ridge vent was used at the roof peaks to allow for proper attic space ventilation.  The result was a aesthetically pleasing roof that provided all the church’s needs, complete with a Manufacturer’s 15-year Labor and Materials warranty.
