Thinking green—from the top down.
Often times the roof of a building is "out of sight, out of mind"—at least until a problem surfaces. However, incorporating environmentally friendly characteristics into its design can have a lasting positive impact on your capital investment and substantially contribute to the profitability of your business. From storm water management and energy efficiency to conserving resources and enhancing the environment with smart attractive solutions, there are a multitude of reasons to start thinking green.
As we continue to develop and learn more about the benefits and rewards associated with green building, Cole Roofing Co., Inc. stands committed in supporting our customers with all of the latest opportunities available. Cole Roofing offers a variety of services geared to meet standards set by the U.S. Green Building Council to help achieve LEED Certification.
Green Roofs
A green roof—sometimes called an eco, vegetated, or living roof—is a roof of a building that is partially or completely covered with vegetation and soil, or a growing medium, planted over a waterproofing membrane. An ideal solution for stormwater management, green roofs also can help reduce cooling and heating costs, improve air quality, reduce noise pollution, and add a natural, attractive rooftop oasis to any building.
Solar Roofs
Bring the natural lighting indoors with daylighting solutions or create a reduction in operating costs by having a solar integrated roof system. Cole Roofing has aligned themselves with Pfister Energy, one of the premier providers of renewable energy solutions as well as onsite generated power. Leaders in providing innovative, sustainable energy solutions, this partnership allows our customers to take advantage of local, state, and federal energy incentives when performing a required re-roof or new-roof installation or repair.
