Here in Georgia, we are often asked, "What is Green Roofing?" In a nutshell, green can be generally described as reduce, reuse, and recycle.

To Reduce energy usage, for you. Every little bit counts, and it all adds up. Reduce pollutants in the air, water, and buildings inside, as well as air, water, and land outside the home. Reduce material wastage. The important thing here is to ensure that any raw material is recycled or used again for another purpose and is not wasted.

Recycle. Architectural metals are easily recycled, and one can even get paid for them at a scrap center. Most any plastic items can also be handed in, but you usually need to cart it to a recycle center in Georgia. For more guiding tips on roof choices in Atlanta

Reuse materials, such as used cedar shingles which can be shredded into chips and used on hiking trails, and also on residential landscaping. Because cedar decomposes, it doesn't ever have to end up in a landfill. New recycling opportunities are being discovered for old asphalt shingles. They can be ground up and used as bulk in private road way asphalt mix. At this time, this is a very limited use, and there are far too many asphalt roofs being torn off and getting disposed in wastefills. We prefer our customers to place their new earth friendly, Energy Star Cool Metal Roofing material straight on top of their asphalt shingles. Slate roofing can be taken off, broken up, and used as landscaping decoration. If you tear off an old metal roof, it can sometimes be reused on barns, or even recycled in Georgia.
