bosscoThe Circle-D-Spray Foam roofing company in Exeter, Maine offers a unique roofing solution to their customers. Spray foam is often used in basements and renovations as well, because it is an excellent way to make a home more energy efficient. Most spray foam is applied as an interior layer, but the company has also worked on some jobs where it's applied on the outside of the home.
In one case, a customer removed all of the siding from the outside of the home so he could still live in it while a renovation was being performed. Spray foam roofing is a popular and growing market, and the company has started a partnership with a roofing company that will help them grow this line of business. Some people don't realize that spray foam can be used as a roofing material, but it is especially popular in the Southeastern US thanks to its durability and resistance to hurricanes.

LightsurgeryPainting your roofing with a special white coating to repel the heat is a major step that homeowners can take to reduce their energy use and costs. Thermoshield is a high tech coating developed by NASA to reflect heat and sunlight, reducing temperatures within buildings by up to 45%.
This means that less air conditioning is required to cool buildings during the warmer months. That's good for the environment and your electric bill. Thermoshield has additional benefits, including slowing the aging of your roof and lowering maintenance expenses. This solution has been popular with industrial companies such as Vital Health Foods in South Africa. The health foods manufacturer has taken other eco friendly steps like replacing all of their factory light with LEDs and installing solar energy systems as well.
