Summer Home Improvement Projects for a More Comfortable Home
Do you plan to spend most of your summer indoors? Then it’s a good idea to invest in home improvement projects for improved comfort and energy efficiency. North American Contractors can install energy-efficient roof, windows, and siding for your home.
Energy-Efficient Roof
As an expert roofer in Indianapolis, we recommend energy-efficient roofing materials for your home to stay cool this summer. The sun shines down on your roof every day and this can make your attic hot. A hot attic leads to increased energy consumption and a less comfortable indoor temperature. We can install energy-efficient asphalt shingles, metal roofs, and tile roofs to counteract this. These will minimize the heat build-up in your attic, leading to a cooler home and less energy bills.
Replacement Windows
We’re not just a specialist in roofing in Indianapolis; we also install replacement windows. Our replacement windows feature low-emissivity glass and insulated frames. Low-emissivity glass reflects solar heat away from your home, while maximizing visible light. Insulated frames, on the other hand, prevent heat transfer between your interior and the outdoors. Together, these features will minimize the effect of the sun’s heat on your interior, reducing your energy bills and keeping your comfortable.
Insulated Vinyl Siding
Finally, as a professional in siding and roof repair in Indianapolis, we can also install insulated vinyl siding. Our insulated vinyl siding can prevent thermal bridging from occurring. Thermal bridging happens when your home loses energy through wall studs. These wall studs can compose up to 25% of your home’s walls and typically don’t have insulation.
Our vinyl siding can correct this by forming a blanket of insulation over the studs that prevent energy from escaping. This leads to reduced energy consumption by your utilities, along with lower energy bills. This also leads to a more stable and comfortable interior temperature.
These projects can make sure that your home stays cool and comfortable this summer. In addition, the savings they generate can help offset the cost of installation. Given enough time, these projects can pay for themselves. North American Contractors has over a decade of experience helping homeowners achieve the home of their dreams.
