Certified Green Roofer
We are proud to announce that Chase Construction NW, Inc. is continuing the tradition of green roofing. Partnering with North America’s largest roofing manufacturer, GAF, we have renewed our status as a Certified Green Roofer. We know that keeping up with all the latest trend in the industry is important, but we also believe that going green isn’t just a trend, but a principle to live by. That is why we put so much effort to keeping up on the latest Green Roofing Certifications. As a thriving member of the community, we hope that by taking extra steps to taking care of our environment, we can influence others in our industry to further their interest in this ever important subject as well.
Fact: Every Year, 11 million tons of shingle waste are generated!
That is why we are partnering with GAF, who supports a program that helps us recycle our asphalt shingles! Did you know that our roadways are paved with recycled asphalt shingles? Asphalt is America’s most recycled material! When we tear off your old asphalt roof, our amazing crew carefully separates the asphalt shingles from the other roof waist. We are then able to take them to a recycling center where they will be converted to material used top pave our roads. The nails also get recycled! We don’t expect our roofers to be able to separate every single nail from the shingles, but that was already thought of. A magnet at the processing plant will do that for us, and recycle the nails separately.
Presenting Energy-Saving Green Roofing Solutions
Our friends at GAF have made green roofing easier with their Energy-Saving roofing components. The shingle manufacturing process at GAF generates minimal scrap waste which gets recycled, leaving no waist! No one has more environmentally friendly roofing options than GAF!
Asphalt Roofing System:
- Don’t just think of windows and insulation when it comes to energy savings, your roof can save energy too!
- Moisture build up when left uncontrolled can increase your energy costs, so it is important that your roof system can breath, exhaling that stale internal air.
- Your greatest asset in going green can be your asphalt shingle roofing system. It has a long service life, recycled material, readiness for solar panels, and low requirements for ongoing maintenance and recycle-ability.
