The world is changing rapidly and so is the roofing industry! At Guarding Roofing we are well aware of the push towards solar panel roofing and we hope to offer you some insight into this industry shift.
Apart from helping the environment and being virtually indistinguishable from shingled roofs, the most exciting thing about solar roofs is that they are much cheaper to own in the long run. After the installation fee is financed and paid, your utility bill could be cut in half. And after years of paying half of what you would’ve otherwise paid, well… that’s some big savings! Here’s a list of all the benefits of having a solar panel roof:
- Visually Appealing
- Environmentally Friendly
- Sustainable Source of Energy
- Cost Effective
The companies that are bringing this technology to the world is none other than Elon Musk’s Tesla, in cooperation with one of their subsidiaries, SolarCity. For Tesla’s solar roof to compete in the marketplace of non-solar roofs, they stated that each panel (that looks like a shingle) must be priced under $24.50. They stayed committed to that goal and announced that it will cost $21.85 per square foot. The solar panels are extremely durable and come with a lifetime warranty.
