Kassel & Irons has a variety of steel roofing solutions, some of which provide the look and beauty of real wood without the drawbacks.  Kasselwood allows you to choose between the look of new cedar (which unlike real cedar will not weather and will always retain that “new” color), weathered cedar, or aged cedar, which are realistically colored.  And unlike real wood products, Kasselwood steel roofing doesn’t require periodic sealing or restaining – the color and finish are permanent.  And since steel roofing is exceptionally durable, this could be the last roof you’ll ever need.

Kassel & Irons also offers Kasselshake roofing, for a more rugged yet beautiful appearance.  Or you can choose from steel roofing which resembles slate.  Whatever style you choose, and whatever color, you can be sure the beautiful look that is yours when the roof is finished will remain for years to come.  Among the other benefits to this roofing product:

• A limited lifetime warranty, including wind resistance up to 120 mph and guarantees against damage from hail
• A limited transferable 40-year warranty, which includes replacement labor costs (many competitors’ warranties do not include replacement labor)
• Energy efficiency – Many styles and some colors are rated EnergyStar qualified
• Lightweight -  in most cases you can avoid the costs of a roof tearoff and disposal

In addition to all of these advantages, Kassel & Irons steel wood-look roofing provides one benefit that real wood can’t provide – no trees need to be harvested to produce this product!  It’s a great choice for homeowners looking for a greener roofing choice.  And since it can be installed right over your existing roof, you won’t be adding to the landfill problem.

Don’t get caught in the next downpour and find yourself with severe structural damage, or at the least, inconvenient repair bills.  If a leaky roof is the cause, ceiling repairs are just cosmetic and won’t address the real problems.  The next rainstorm could bring even more ceiling and structural damage.  If you have concerns about the integrity of your roof, contact a licensed roofing professional such as Quarve Contracting, Inc., for a roof inspection and repair or replacement estimate.  In addition to ceiling leaks or water stains, here are some other indicators that your roof needs attention:

• If you have asphalt shingles, piles of roofing granules (resembling very fine gravel) are collecting at the base of your downspouts
• Loose or missing shingles
• Shingles with curled edges
• Darkened or stained areas, which may indicate mold, mildew, or other problems; it may also indicate that your roof simply needs to be cleaned, but only a trained roofing professional can tell for sure

Your roof is your home’s first line of defense against the elements, so don’t take any chances.  You’ve made an investment in your home; make sure it’s adequately and effectively covered.  The roofing professionals at Quarve can suggest a variety of roofing options.  Our specialty is steel roofing – it’s one of the best choices for homeowners who are looking for a green roofing product.  An additional advantage to steel roofing is that because it’s lightweight, tear-off and disposal of your old roof is usually not necessary.  That means less debris in the landfill and less labor cost.
