Our recent roof replacement in Longwood, FL, at The Home Builders Network Inc. showcases how a modern roofing system can deliver superior protection, lasting beauty, and significant energy savings. This project, pictured here, was more than just a standard installation; it was a complete upgrade designed specifically for the demands of the Central Florida climate.
Energy-Efficient Shingles for a Cooler Home
For this home, we installed Atlas Pinnacle® Sun architectural shingles in the ‘Cool Sand’ color. This is not an ordinary shingle. It features 3M™ Cool Roofing Granules, a solar reflective technology that bounces the sun’s heat away from the home. This technology can help lower cooling costs by a noticeable margin, a welcome benefit during our long, hot summers. The ‘Cool Sand’ color complements the home’s exterior while contributing to its overall energy efficiency.
Roof Replacement in Longwood, FL Built to Withstand Florida Weather
Durability is paramount in Florida, and this roofing system is built to last. The Atlas shingles are rated to withstand winds up to 130 mph and have a Class 3 impact resistance, providing robust protection against hail and storm debris. To combat the humid climate, they also include Scotchgard™ Protector by 3M, which prevents the formation of ugly black streaks caused by algae, ensuring the roof maintains its clean appearance for years.
Locally Made, Storm-Ready Skylights
To bring natural light into the home without compromising the roof’s integrity, we installed new Kennedy Skylights. As a Florida-based manufacturer, Kennedy engineers their products to meet our state’s strict building codes. The skylights we installed are highly impact-resistant and designed to handle extreme weather, giving the homeowner peace of mind. They allow for bright, welcoming interiors while blocking harmful UV rays and excess heat.
