How a New Roof Can Lower Your Energy Bills

When most homeowners think about replacing a roof, they’re worried about leaks, missing shingles, or storm damage. But did you know that a new roof can also help you save money every month on your energy bills?


At Peake Design and Build, we help Virginia homeowners protect their homes and their wallets. Here’s how the right roof can make your house more energy-efficient — and more comfortable all year long.


Modern Shingles Reflect More Heat

Today’s roofing materials are better than ever. Many asphalt shingles come with reflective technology that helps bounce sunlight away from your roof instead of absorbing it. This keeps your attic — and your entire home — cooler in the summer, so your AC doesn’t have to work as hard.'


Better Ventilation Means Lower Costs

A properly installed roof includes balanced attic ventilation. Good airflow:

  • Reduces heat buildup in the attic during summer

  • Helps prevent moisture and mold

  • Extends the life of your shingles

When your attic stays cooler, you spend less on cooling — and your home stays more comfortable.


Insulation Upgrades

When we replace a roof, we also check your attic insulation. In some cases, we recommend adding or replacing insulation to keep warm air in during winter and hot air out during summer. This can make a noticeable difference on your heating and cooling bills.


How Much Can You Save?

Every home is different, but homeowners often see savings of 10%–20% on their energy bills after upgrading to a properly installed, energy-efficient roof — especially if the old roof was poorly ventilated or using outdated materials.


Get an Energy-Saving Roof, Installed Right

At Peake Design and Build, we use premium, energy-efficient roofing materials and install them to meet or exceed local building codes — so your investment pays you back every month.
