Reroof America makes going green even easier... when reroofing consider the environment!

Reroof America has partnered with the green shingle program.  The program was developd by some of the leading insurance carriers...

You see... Insurance Carriers own the salvage rights from their insurance claims for roofs. They are now helping the planet by recycling their Asphalt Shingle salvage. Reroof America works with Green Shingle to safely recycle the shingles, turning them into environmentally friendly materials versus going into landfills. And the best thing is that the process doesn't cost you cost you anything and it’s a great way to GO GREEN and help our environment.

Directions For Home Owners:

  1. Verify if Green Shingle is in your area (Right now we are starting in the Kansas City Market and the Minneapolis, St. Paul areas). 
  2. Use a green shingle contractor like Reroof America to reroof your home. 
  3. Tell a friend about your contribution to planet earth!
How Recycling and Reroof America Helps:

  • Recycling Asphalt Shingles redirects TONS of waste-product from our-burdened landfills. (as one of the nations top storm and insurance replacement contractors... Reroof America makes a considerable contribution to this.)
  • Recycled shingles are used in the manufacturing of hot mix asphalt which is used to pave roads, driveways, and parking lots as well as other non-road use.
  • Asphalt Shingles actually make a stronger product (for roads etc) than standard asphalt because of the fibers used in shingle manufacturing.
Reroof America is already a member of the United States Green Building Council (USGBC) and a certified Green Roofer by GAF Materials Corp. (North America's Largest Roofing Manufacturer).
