As sustainability becomes a growing priority, homeowners are looking for roofing solutions that reduce environmental impact without compromising durability. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), buildings account for nearly 39% of total carbon emissions in the U.S., with inefficient roofing playing a major role in energy waste. By choosing energy-efficient roofing materials, homeowners can lower their carbon footprint while enjoying long-term savings.
Sustainable roofing options include:
- Cool Roofs: Reflect sunlight, reducing cooling costs by up to 15%.
- Metal Roofing: Made from recycled materials and lasts up to 70 years.
- Solar Roofing: Integrates photovoltaic cells to generate clean energy.
- Green Roofs: Living plants absorb heat and improve air quality.
Beyond material choices, proper insulation and ventilation further enhance a roof’s energy efficiency.
