Here in Atlanta, Ga, we are often asked, "What is Green Roofing?" In a nutshell, green can be generally defined as reuse, reduce and recycle.

Reuse components, such as used cedar shingles which can be shredded into mulch and used on nature trails, as well as residential landscaping. Because cedar decomposes, it doesn’t need to end up in a landfill. New recycling possibilities are being developed for used tar shingles. We prefer our customers to install their new sustainable, Energy Star Cool Metal Roofing material directly over their asphalt shingles. Slate roofing can be taken off, broken up, and utilized as landscaping gravel. If you remove a used metal roof, it can often be re-applied on sheds, or sometimes recycled in Georgia.

Reduce energy usage, for you. Every watt makes a difference, and it all piles up. Reduce material wastage. The important thing here is to ensure that any material is recycled or used again for other purposes and is not wasted. More green roofing choices.

Recycle. Roofing metals are easy to recycle, and one can even get reimbursed for them at a scrap center. Most any plastic materials can also be recycled, but you will normally need to cart it to a recycle center in Georgia.

We are dedicated to continuous improvement in our green practices to help improve our Georgia environment. We’re becoming greener every day. We’re doing routine roof measurements and material lists via satellite imaging rather than driving to the site. Satellite imaging saves gasoline and reduces toxic gases. Our green efforts have saved us money and cut down our costs. There are specific benefits to our environment, as well as the added satisfaction and value to our Georgia clients.
