Retrofit Commercial Roof Restoration in Castle Rock

Commercial Metal Roofing

Posted by Celtic Roofing Team on

Metal Roofing for Commercial Buildings

It was bound to happen. Father Time has caught up with your commercial building’s roof. Rust, corrosion, storm, and hail damage — all these things detract from your building’s aesthetic and need to be addressed. As a building owner, your worries may include the time to fix your roof, the material choices that will give you the most life from your roof, and, of course, cost. You may find yourself thinking about a coating that will be a “band aid” — a short term fix to just get something done quickly. However, let us encourage you to look into a retrofit system, as it’s a reliable, permanent fix that will also make your building look more beautiful.

Retrofit Roof At-A-Glance 

  • Prolongs the life of your building

  • Fits over your existing roof

  • High quality, durable metal panels

  • Eco-Friendly as there is no need to tear off the existing roof

  • Cost-efficient

  • Energy efficient

  • Added insulation

A retrofit roof panel will reflect up to 88% of the sun’s rays, insulating the building and thus allowing for an energy-efficient roof that actually saves you money on your energy bills. As there’s no need to remove the existing roof, installing a retrofit system is environmentally-friendly, with almost no waste. A 15-year warranty ensures you the highest protection over the longest period of time, so you can go about your business with your mind at ease. Retrofit roofing systems have a service life of around 50 to 60 years, meaning it will likely last the life of the building, effectively eliminating future replacement costs.

Next Steps

Call us to set up a free consultation. We will come out and take a look at your roof to determine if your building would benefit from a retrofit roofing system. Remember — This could be the last roof you’ll ever need!

Hail Proof Roof & Shingles in Douglas County

Oh Hail No

Posted by Celtic Roofing Team on

 

The Problem

We’re certain you’re tired of hearing about hail, as it’s talked about ad nauseam. Gosh, we’re sick of it, too! But it’s important to remember that it’s an undeniable part of life in Colorado. So what can be done about it? Do we hope and pray it won’t be too bad this year? Do we force a smile and pretend those hail divots on our roof and gutters don’t exist? How about we acquiesce and replace our roofs every other year. (The answer to all these rhetorical questions is a resounding NO)

The Solution

You know the sure things in life. In Colorado, it’s death, taxes, and hail. While we can’t help you with death and taxes, we’ve got you covered on the hail part.

 

  • Celtic offers every client an upgrade to a class-4 hail rated shingle … for free.

 

  • Celtic works for you, and will be on-site when the insurance adjuster is looking at your roof to make sure the siding, gutters, windows, fences and even your mailbox are examined. As we’ve been around for over two decades, we have wonderful business relationships with insurance companies, and we love working with adjusters. Our goal is to make sure ALL damage is inspected, and ALL damage is repaired or replaced.

 

  • Celtic is a local, family-owned business, and as such, we understand the importance of protecting your home and family. Whether it’s rain, sleet, snow, hail, high winds, or excessive sunshine, we know the climate and we know how to protect against it. Our expertise in all types of roofing allows us to not only assess damage, but we can also formulate a plan to ensure the highest protection of your property. We absolutely love our clients, but we don’t want to be seeing you again for a very, very long time (no offense, of course).

Why Does Colorado Get So Much Hail?

You’ve likely heard of “tornado alley,” which is a loosely defined area in the central United States where tornados are very common, but did you know there is a “hail alley” as well? This area overlaps much of what is traditionally considered tornado alley along with states like Minnesota, Missouri, and Colorado. So, what makes these states like Colorado so hail-prone? It mainly has to do with elevation. Hail forms in the cold air above us, so at higher elevations, it doesn’t have as far to fall and potentially melt before making impact with the ground. Colorado has the highest average elevation of any state, meaning we are much closer to the freezing level in the atmosphere, making hail even more likely.

How Hail Can Damage Your Roof

Depending on its size, a piece of hail can make impact traveling anywhere from nine to 40 miles per hour. Obviously, the larger the hailstone and the faster it’s traveling, the more damage it can do to your roof. Hailstones can bruise, crack, and tear away at roofing shingles which not only threatens the structural integrity of your roof but can also lead to water damage.

Common Signs of Hail Damage

It’s often hard to identify signs of hail damage to your roof. This is not only because it can be challenging to safely get up to your roof and check, but the signs can look insignificant or be too small to notice. Thankfully, there are a few tell-tale signs of hail damage that anyone should be able to spot. These include:

  • Shingles, tiles, or granules on the ground.
  • Leaking or clogged gutters.
  • Shingles that have been cracked or broken.
  • Shingles that are peeling off.
  • Missing shingles.
  • Water damage or leakage inside of your home.
  • Damage to your home’s exterior and windows.

What To Do Next

Give us a call. We promise we don’t bite! The Celtic Clan will head over to your home or business and do a free inspection of your property. Once we assess the situation, we’ll send you a full rundown of your options. You can rest assured that we will make the process simple, easy, and maybe even a little fun (we have a wonderful Team!). 720.270.1300

Springtime is the best time for a roof checkup

Posted by Celtic Roofing Team on

 

Spring in Colorado has officially arrived … longer days and warmer temperatures help thaw out the great outdoors as well as our homes. This is the perfect time to have your roof inspected to evaluate any work needed in order to prepare for summer hail storms and thunderstorms. We highly recommend taking advantage of this window of opportunity between winter and spring, and get a free roof evaluation from the Castle Rock Expert Roofing Team to avoid costly repairs stemming from neglect. Certain roof issues are hard to find during wintertime as snow and ice can cover problems up. Rising temperatures help us find problem areas and repair them promptly before more damage can be done.

 

It’s not too late for us to inspect your roof for hail damage from storms that took place last year! Let us take a look to see if there is any damage, and help walk you through the insurance process to get you the best roof possible.

What is Metal Roofing?

Posted by admin on

There is a large variety of building types and styles spread throughout the United States, and all need the perfect roof covering to keep them watertight and safe. For a residential home, that could be asphalt shingles or concrete tile for a condo association.

Metal roofs are an older form of roofing, but advances in material technologies mean the modern metal roof isn’t too like the old-fashioned tin roof you’ve probably heard of. Let’s explore what metal roofing is, and some situations in which metal roofing is the best material for the job.

So, What is Metal Roofing?

Simply put, metal roofing is a roofing material that’s primarily constructed of metal. In the roofing world that material is most often steel. Roofing metal is manufactured in several types of styles, sizes, colors, and strengths, so it’s easy to match your home or commercial building to the perfect roofing material.

While metal is still more popular for commercial roofing projects, shows it is quickly becoming more popular for residential use as well.

Advantages of Metal Roofing

  • Strong: Why is anything built with metal? Because it’s strong. Metal roofing has been known to stand up to fierce winds, hail, driving precipitation, snow, ice and anything else Mother Nature can throw at it. When you choose metal, you choose strength.
  • Variety: Since metal roofing is manufactured in several assorted styles, it’s easy to match your building to the proper metal roof. Traditional metal roofing may not be the most pretty to look at, but modern materials are much easier on the eyes.
  • Versatile: You can choose metal roofing for almost any type of project. Personal home or commercial warehouse, the metal will work on most roof types.
  • Longevity: Metal roofs have strong warranties and useful lives, upwards of 50 years. If you want a material you won’t need to replace anytime soon, look to metal roofing.

Disadvantages of Metal Roofing

  • Cost: Metal roofing is much stronger than traditional roofing materials, but you will have to pay for it. The good news is that a metal roof will last much longer than traditional materials.
  • Difficulty in Good Contractors: If you live in a major city, it won’t be difficult to find reliable metal roofers, but you may have difficulty finding reliable help for metal roofing in a small town.
  • Noise: Some homeowners have reported that their metal roofs are noisy during heavy precipitation, but many modern metal roofs come with dampeners to quiet the noise.

The choice of roofing materials is up to you. Metal roofing is reliable, durable, and lasts a long time, but it costs much more than traditional roofing materials. Your best strategy is to meet with a local and reputable metal roofing contractor to see if metal roofing is the right call for you.

Why Is It Hard to Find a Reliable Roofer?

Let’s explore a common scenario. Your whole street got hit with a massive hail storm and everyone’s roofs are shot. You speak with your neighbors and you all decide to go with the same company because one of your neighbors says “They know a roofing guy.” You don’t think much of it and sign up with the recommended roofer because, why not?

If you need a licensed, insured, local, and experienced roofer Free Inspection!

The roofer was pleasant at first but the communication has become horrible, you have issues with your new roof install and the roofer is nowhere to be found! Unfortunately, this type of scenario isn’t all too uncommon, so why is it so difficult to find a reliable roofer?

Why Is It So Hard to Find a Reliable Roofer?

The roofing industry is notorious for being full of fly-by-night roofers, storm chasers (companies that follow the storms and are not local), liars, and shady characters that are more interested in your pocketbook than a job well-done. Roofing is a large industry, and in some states with frequent hail and wind storms, there are many roofing needs. Less than reputable characters are hoping to make a quick buck, will take advantage of this fact, and try to worm their way into whatever work they can, leaving their customers with headaches.

The roofing industry may have its share of shady characters, but is also full of reputable contractors that genuinely want to help you with your roofing issue. When you’re in need of a roof repair or replacement, your goal is to find these reputable companies. When searching for a reputable and reliable roofer, use the following tools and resources to make your life easier:

  • Rating and review sites like Angie’s List, Houzz or Google reviews
  • Local Better Business Bureau chapter
  • Local contractor guides
  • Roofing material manufacturer websites

Your goal is to find a roofer that is registered with your local BBB, has many years of experience in your city, has overall positive reviews, and will offer you a free estimate.

The key in finding a reliable roofer is by doing the proper research before letting anyone on your roof, even if your neighbor swears by a certain company. When you choose a local and reliable roofer you won’t only skirt a bad experience, but could get an experience that is enjoyable.

How to Find a Reputable Roofing Company For Your Roofing Project Now

Not all roofs are equal, and as such, not all roofing companies are equal. Depending on the scope of your project, you may wish to consider one roofer over the other. The type of roof, roofing material, and even geographical location can make a difference, which is why it’s important to understand what you require before making your choice. Be sure to check references, but also look into the types of projects they’ve completed.

If you have a flat roof, for example, you’ll want to choose a company that has extensive experience replacing flat roof systems. If you’re going with a metal, wood shake, or synthetic roof, ensure that the company has previous projects to showcase that prove its commitment to quality and professional craftsmanship. You can also reference the Better Business Bureau (BBB), Houzz, or Google reviews to find noted reputable roofers in your area.
