Cenco Building Services knows that our services are only as good at the products and materials we use. What’s the point of being one of the best roofers in the Denver, Colorado area if our roofs don’t last? That’s why we use Owens Corning roofs on our customer’s homes. This brand has been innovating the roofing industry for over 75 years and shows no signs of stopping.

Benefits of Using Owens Corning on Your Home

Owens Corning roofs are known for their quality and strength. They specialize in producing a wide range of asphalt roofing systems in assorted styles and colors. Their systems involve multiple layers of protection applied to the home to keep out rain, snow, and extreme heat. You’ll find that the slightly higher initial investment in one of their complete roofing systems is well-worth it for the improved longevity and comfort provided too. What can you expect from an Owens Corning roof?

• Use of an ice and water barrier to protect against driven rain and melting ice.
• Installation of a ridge vent with a UV filter to keep insects and UV rays out of the attic.
• Shingles with a wind resistant rating of up to 130 MPH.
• A StreakGuard protective coating that resists mildew for 10 years.
• Roof shingles with a Class Four Impact Resistance Rating.
• A Platinum Protection Lifetime Limited Warranty with product and workmanship coverage.

Why Choose an Owens Corning Contractor for Your Roofing Project?

As an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, Cenco Building Services is fully trained in the installation of their products. We know how to properly apply each layer of their complete roofing systems and make roof repairs to existing Owens Corning roofs. In order to become a Platinum Preferred Contractor, our team also had to pass an installation workmanship inspection. You can rest easy knowing that our work is up to their lofty standards. Also, as a partner with Owens Corning, we’re able to provide some essential benefits for homeowners:

• We sell products from the entire Owens Corning roofing catalog.
• Our Colorado roofing company carries at least $1 million in general liability insurance.
• Cenco Building Services is licensed and certified by all required state and local organizations.

At Cenco Building Services, we’re constantly seeking ways to improve our products and services for valued customers like you. This commitment isn’t just marketing speak or some kind of gimmick–it’s a shared passion behind everything we do. That’s why we’re so excited to announce that our crew leads have now earned ProCertification from the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA)!

What Does It Take to Earn NRCA ProCertification?

NRCA developed the ProCertification program so that dedicated roofers can provide better services and so that homeowners can have greater confidence when hiring local roofers. Passing this certification requires high performance on two separate exams:

• Proctored Computer-Based Written Exam
• In-Person, Hands-on Installation Exam Observed by an Official NRCA Qualified Assessor

Only after passing scores on both of these assessments can a roofer earn the ProCertified stamp of approval. Cenco is one of the first roofing companies in the nation to send our shingle installation crews through this demanding, time-consuming certification process.

What Does Cenco’s ProCertification Mean for You?

NRCA’s ProCertification is a rigorous and costly program that few roofing companies in Colorado are willing to undertake. But at Cenco, we know that training is a core pillar of our success, and we equip our roofers with every skill and resource available! We recognize that investing in our roofing crews means investing in the long-term value of our clients’ homes. Here’s why our ProCertification is so important for you as a Cenco customer:

• Trained Crews: You’ll know that the roofers working on your home have been independently tested and verified by one of the industry’s most prominent roofing organizations.
• Guaranteed Expertise: With this certification, you can rest assured in our exceptional quality. We’re now able to promise that we ONLY use certified roofers for every shingle roof installation.
• Versatile Roof Applications: From budget-friendly asphalt to premium F-Wave shingles, we are professionally certified for all kinds of shingle roofing systems.

Cenco Has Certified Roofing Experts in More Ways Than One!

Cenco’s ProCertification is just one more way that we guarantee the expertise of our local roofing crews. In addition to our new NRCA ProCertification, we are also a:

• GAF Certified Weather Stopper Roofing Contractor
• Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor
• Tile Roofing Institute Certified Company
• United Association of Storm Restoration Contractors (UASRC) Member
• National Storm Contractors Association (NSCA) Member
• Roofing Company Where Every Single Salesman Is Also a Licensed Insurance Adjuster!

These many distinctions and our latest NRCA ProCertification is just the beginning for Cenco. Over the next year, we have plans to have send our production manager through Roofing Foreman ProCertification and our crews through TPO/Flat Roofing ProCertification, too. At Cenco Building Services, we’re improving our team every day so that we can deliver the superior results you deserve. Remember–we ONLY use certified crews for all of our shingle roofing installations across Colorado!

La compra de un nuevo sistema de techo es una inversion importante. Antes de gastar su dinero, tome tiempo para dedicarse a aprender como evaluar contratistas de techado que pueden estar trabajando en su casa o edificio. No todos los contratistas de techos son iguales; insista en trabajar solo con un miembro de la Asociacion de Contratistas de Techos (NRCA por sus siglas en Ingles). Contratistas miembros de la NRCA son reconocidos por tener un conocimiento especializado, haber recibido una formacion intensiva en una area particular y tienen la experiencia practica. Ellos le pueden mostrar como su sistema de techo puede ayudarle a ahorrar costos de energia tambien. Entonces, ?como puede determinar que contratista es el mejor para su trabajo? No hay metodos infalibles, pero hay algunas cosas importantes que puede hacer para ayudar a hacer la mejor decision posible para su situacion. La NRCA le recomienda precalificar su(s) contratista(s). Se puede requerir un poco de trabajo extra, pero la experiencia demuestra que vale la pena a lo largo para asegurarse de obtener los resultados que espera–un sistema de techo de alta calidad a un precio justo. Y recuerde mantener un sano escepticismo sobre la oferta mas baja. Si suena demasiado bueno para ser verdad, probablemente lo es. Muchas ofertas bajo costo, de los contratistas “que desaparecen” pueden ser atractivas, pero estos contratistas a menudo no tienen seguro, usan materiales de baja calidad, y realizan un trabajo de calidad inferior. El precio es solo uno de los criterios para la seleccion de un contratista de techos. El profesionalismo, materiales de alta calidad y la mano de obra tambien deben tener gran influencia en su decision. Puede precalificar a los contratistas de techado proyecto a proyecto o anualmente si trabaja regularmente con el(los) mismo(s) contratista(s). Siga los puntos incluidos en este folleto para asegurar que su contratista de techo tiene lo que se necesita para completar su exitoso proyecto de techado.

One of the most important components of your home is the roof–the part of your house that provides shelter from the elements, protection from falling tree branches, dust, and debris, and insulation from the cold and the heat. Aside from all of these practical purposes, your roof is also a huge factor in the appearance and curbside appeal of your entire property. Because it’s such an important part of the construction, roof replacement is not a home improvement project to take lightly. Doing research to find out more about your options for a roof renovation is the first step a homeowner should take in the process, while finding a reputable roofing company to guide you through a smooth replacement is the second. In this article, our expert roofing contractors at Cenco Building Services will share some information about roofing installation to help you determine your options.

Determining Your Roofing Material Needs

When it comes to roofing, the material you choose is one of the most important decisions you’ll need to make. Your area’s climate and weather conditions will impact your needs, which is why some areas of the country will depend heavily on metal roofing products while other areas in the county may focus on asphalt shingles, just to give an example. Aside from climate, the angle of the roof is also an important factor that can influence the type of material you choose. Some roofing materials like rubber polymer-modified shingles work better with flat roof construction, while others, such as wood shake shingles,will perform better on steep-slope rooftops. A reputable roofing company like Cenco Building Services can help you determine your needs for your roofing construction according to your home style, your climate, your budget, and other factors.

Common Roofing Materials

These are some of the most common roofing materials used in roof installations across the United States:

• Asphalt Shingles: By far the cheapest and most obtainable. This, in turn, makes this shingle option the most popular choice. However, there are other more attractive options for those concerned with aesthetics. Plus, if durability is a concern, then it’s best to explore other options.
• Wood Shake: Wood shake is beautiful, durable, and strong–although it does cost quite a bit more than asphalt and other options to install and maintain. It’s also flammable (but can be coated with a flame-retardant finish for extra protection from burning). Even so, those who live in wildfire-prone environments should exercise caution when choosing this option.
• Metal Roofing: Typically made of steel or aluminum, this option has grown in popularity and appreciated for its sleek, modern look and durability. This is an excellent option for those that live in wildfire-prone areas or that would rest easier with a fireproof material.
• Slate Roofing: Considered a high-end option, slate roofing offers attractiveness and extreme durability. Keep in mind that this option is extremely heavy and can sometimes require roof reinforcement for installation. As such, this is an expensive roofing option to pursue, although it can last a very long time given the proper maintenance it needs to stand strong for over a lifetime.
• Synthetic Slate: Synthetic slate refers to rubberized tiles that closely resemble slate, but are made of recycled materials. They are lighter and less susceptible to damage. However, this option is not as common as other options and is also relatively new.
• Clay/Ceramic Tile: Clay and ceramic tiles are known for their distinct style and durability, especially in Spanish-style or Mediterranean homes. However, the trend is beginning to shift to metal and composite materials that mimic the look of clay and ceramic tiles without the higher expense and heavy maintenance they require.

What Happens During Installation?

Now that you’ve familiarized yourself with the material options, let’s review the roofing installation process before you start working with the crew. In general, the average-sized job will take 3-4 days to complete. Various factors such as unusual house shape or inclement weather can affect this timeline. Here’s what happens during a roofing replacement project, along with some options you may have to choose from depending on your needs:

• Old Shingle Removal: All existing shingles are removed along with any damaged or old flashings and drip edgings. The key to this step is to prep the roof for all-new roofing. Anything that doesn’t need replacing but can be repaired is done at this time as well.
• Ice Dam Protection: This is an optional choice for some, but sometimes necessary for cold, snowy regions such as Colorado. Ice dams are a serious threat that can compromise the structure of the roof, and protection can help to avoid having to deal with water damage from ice dam formations over the winter seasons.
• Roofing Paper: This paper is laid down over the roof sheathing before the chosen shingles are laid down. This paper provides an additional barrier against water penetration.
• Edgings and Flashing: At this point, new edgings and flashings are installed around the edge of the roof and other appropriate areas. Wherever two roof planes meet, flashing is installed accordingly.
• Shingle Application: During this step, the chosen shingles are installed according to their specifications. Every material is different and comes with its own specific process.
• Final Steps: Once the roof has been installed properly, clean-up and debris removal will begin. Make sure the new roof is inspected and approved by a building inspector before signing off on the project.
