"We incorporated a revolutionary, ecofriendly concrete tile system on the home which literally cleans smog from the air," explains John Renowden vice president of product development for Boral Roofing, the world's most sustainable roofing manufacturer. "This cutting-edge Tile will appeal to both builders and homebuyers looking to reduce their environmental footprint," he said. This revolutionary product was featured on five earth-friendly prototype homes built by KB Homes for their Alamosa community in West Lancaster, CA. The company’s innovative Energy Efficient Roof System utilizes an elevated batten system, vented eave risers and ridge guards to reduce energy costs. While individual savings will vary, studies have shown that clay and concrete tile roof systems can reduce the amount of heat penetrating a conditioned space by 50% versus direct-to-deck installations, resulting in 22% lower energy consumption. “Cast-Fit was developed to support a growing trend towards cleaner, more contemporary exterior design. Its smooth lines, subtle tones, and strong graphic statement support a wide range of visual aesthetics for commercial properties and residential developments throughout the United States,” said Miriam Tate, of Architectural Color Marketing, design consultant to Boral Stone Products. Weighing less than full-thickness stone, Cast-Fit can be adhered to interior or exterior surfaces that have been prepared for veneer application and does not have the cold climate limitations for exterior application familiar with other products in this category. Similar to Cultured Stone’s other masonry stone veneers; Cast-Fit is easy to install, and does not require any special trades or equipment.Concrete Roof Tile - News

Concrete Tile Roof Cleaning Coralville Iowa
I have a concrete tile roof that is 14 years old. It had become unsightly from dirt, mold and mildew. This roof cannot be walked on without extreme care and knowledge of the product. Bruce Sullivan and his team drove down from the Des Moines area to Coralville, Iowa and cleaned my roof. The result is spectacular and his crew was most professional and FIRST RATE in every respect. He cleaned continguous structures on my home for no additional charges. I give Sullivan Roof Cleaning my highest recommendation and would be happy to provide further information to anyone considering roof cleaning.
