If you are considering putting your home on the market, don’t underestimate the importance of having your roof inspected. A quality roof in good shape can be an added bonus to your home’s value.
If your roof is in need of repair, it can create several different issues with selling. A solid roof communicates the seller’s dedication to regular home maintenance and eases the buyer’s minds that the home is well maintained. When the roof is in disrepair, the buyer might become concerned that there are hidden issues not easily found via inspection.
For instance, if there is evidence of water damage from a poorly maintained roof, the buyer could become fearful of mold and pull out of the sale. In addition, poor insulation leads to high energy bills which can be another cause for the buyer to walk. Finally, the roof might need to be replaced. It would be difficult to entice a buyer to purchase a home and then turn around and spend the additional money on a new roof.
The best solution? Have your roof inspected and repaired or replaced before placing your home on the market. Of all the improvements that you make, a new roof signifies to the buyer that you, as a homeowner, took your investment seriously, and that they are buying a home that will continue to be a good investment for them.
CLC Roofing is here to help with your roofing needs prior to your home sale.

With summer quickly approaching, CLC Roofing wants to educate you on the importance of proper roof venitilation. Whether replacing your roof or not, it is important to have the right amount of ventilation for the size of your roof and attic area in your home.
Excessive heat in your attic causes many problems for the homeowner. First, a hot attic translates into a hot house causing the air conditioning to run more often. In addition, heat in the attic heats up the underside of your roof allowing your shingles to be essentially baked from underneath which can lead to brittle shingles and roofing materials that fails prematurely.
However, in the winter months, proper roofing ventilation is also important. During the colder months, excessive moisture can build up in the attic area of your home. Keeping ventilation paths opens is key to removing moisture which can condense and cause your insulation to deteriorate. Moisture can also play a role in detoriation of roofing components.
Year round, ventilation plays an important role in your home’s energy efficiency and roof stability. CLC Roofing understands that you want to save money and protect your largest investment-your home. If you are concerned about the amount of ventilation that your roof has, call CLC Roofing and let us evaluate your current system.
If proper ventilation is not applied to your home’s roof, some shingle companies will even void their warranty . The shingle manufacturer usually provides recommendations on the proper amount of ventilation required for your roof size to ensure their products work well over time. CLC Roofing adheres to these recommendations at the minimum when replacing a roof ensuring that your home and roof are protected.

Commercial building owners have a unique set of issues when dealing with a roof purchase. Probably the most common is that often commerical buildings have flat roofs. Flat roofs offer a unique set of problems when dealing with water and hail and they are very prone to leaks. That is why it is very important to do your research and understand the best options for your roofing needs.
Traditionally, built up roofs have been the mainstay for commercial buildings with flat roofs. A built up roof has multiple layers of a roll type base material with hot asphalt applied in between them. A layer of gravel is added to the top layer to shield the roofing material from the sun. Although this is the least expensive option, it is also no better than a short term solution and prone to leaks.
An energy efficient and virtually leak proof solution for flat roofs are PVC membranes. PVC membranes are made from a very flexible vinyl similar to rubber. When installed properly, they are considered hail resistant and custom flashings for every piece of the roofing material greatly reduces the chances of leaks. Many of the PVC membranes come in white which reflect heat and many of them are Energy Star rated.
PVC membranes come in various size rolls which are either glued down or mechanically attached with screws and washers. Then, the seams are heat welded together to form one big seamless membrane. Applying the PVC over insulation board adds to the energy efficiency of your business and keeps it virtually leak free. Another advantage of PVC membrane is that with its quick and easy installation, the roofing process will do little to interfere with the day to day operations for your business.

Here is a list of questions to ask a prospective contractor including the answers that you should expect.
Ask the following questions:
1. Do you have general liability insurance? Can I see a copy or verify that it is indeed active? It is very important that your roofer have this insurance as a protection for you, the homeowner.
2. How many roofs have you done in the area? Do you have references? May I call them? Take the time to call these references and ask them about their roofing experience.
3. Do you have any complaints filed at the Better Business Bureau? Regardless of their answer, you can verify this information by visiting the Better Business Bureau. Click here to find out more.
4. When will I be expected to pay for the job? The contractor should reply, “An initial payment will be due, when we have the materials or have placed the order for the materials (some materials like slate, tile, etc. are special order with no return policy).” The contractor should not expect final payment until all the work is completed.
5. Can you help me with my insurance claim? Part of a roofing company’s job should be to help homeowners with their insurance claims. That is why CLC Roofing has licensed insurance adjusters who can help the homeowner navigate the insurance claim process.
In addition, it is important to know your rights when purchasing a roof. Insurance companies often encourage homeowners to get multiple bids merely as a delay tactic while they schedule an adjuster to come evaluate the roofs. However, it isn’t necessary for you to go this route. Waiting around on multiple contractors can be a waste of your time. It is important to know that if you have a trusted roofing company that has answered all of your questions, the insurance company is required to pay the appropriate market value for a quality roofing job in your area.
Furthermore, many homeowners become nervous about raised premiums or a canceled insurance policy from filing a roof claim. Insurance premiums are not raised or lowered based on bad weather in your area. Insurance companies can’t raise premiums based on acts of God/Mother Nature nor can they cancel policies. Homeowners should understand that insurance premiums are regulated by the State Board of Insurance in Austin, TX not by your specific insurance company based on claims.
CLC Roofing knows that replacing a roof can lead to a lot of questions which is why we are committed to giving you the knowledge necessary for a successful roof replacement. Please call our office at 800-810-2521 with any questions or to schedule your free roof assessment today.

Temperatures in the metroplex are already reaching triple digits. This summer is set to be a hot one, and hot summers mean very high energy bills. However, people with radiant barrier roof decking report lower energy bills and a cooler home. Radiant barrier decking is just another tool in making your home energy effiecient yet many people don’t understand how it works or even know how it could help them! CLC Roofing can explain how to make your home more energy efficient and help you save money.
What is radiant barrier decking? Simply put, radiant barrier decking is a highly reflective piece of aluminum that is applied to the underside of your roof decking. When the sun hits your roof, instead of its heat being absorbed by your shingles and decking, it is reflected away. All that is well and good, but what does this do for you as a homeowner?
Let’s take a look at a home without radiant barrier decking. When the roof absorbs the heat of the sun, the attic and its insulation heat up. Often attic venilation is based on air movement and as any Texan will tell you, there are some hot days in the Texas summer with no wind or air movement. Thus, current attic vents are only allowing more heat in and not giving much relief to the attic temperature as it continues to rise.
As the attic heat increases, the heat radiates down into the living spaces of the home causing the air conditioner to kick on again with the home owner wondering how expensive this air conditioning bill will be.
However, in a home with a radiant heat barrier, the attic temperature stays around 30% lower than a home without it. This means less heat in the living spaces and less air conditioning use. In other words, replacing your roof with a radiant heat barrier makes good economical sense.
CLC Roofing can advise you on the options available when it comes to a radiant heat barrier for your home and roof. Call us for a home energy check and roof check today! Don’t get caught in the heat this summer! CLC Roofing 800-810-2521
