Roofing Around the World

Academy Roofing Moscow, Russia

This year’s Spring time brought with it a renewed sense of community involvement for Academy Roofing. You will see our employees involved in many local organizations like Must Ministries Summer lunch program, Atlanta Track Club’s Kilometer Kids program at Swift Cantrel Park, North Cobb Rotary Club, Positive Athlete Georgia, World Vision, End It Movement, and Passion City Church. Academy will also be at many local events in and around the Kennesaw community.

Many of you saw us in downtown Kennesaw for the annual Big Shanty Festival. There were an estimated 75,000 people in attendance over the beautiful two days.

If you stopped by our booth during one of those days you most likely picked up a tote bag. One such neighbor happened to pick one up and take it with them on their most recent world travels.

They decided to take a few pictures and send them to us while they were in Moscow, Russia standing in front of the Kremlin.

While we don’t think we will be opening a branch location in Moscow any time soon, we were touched that they would take time out of their trip to think of us. This speaks greatly about who these people are and their thoughfulness.

Where will Academy Roofing’s logo pop up next? Connect with us online on Twitter, Facebook, & Instagram to find out. The most creative photo with the Academy Roofing logo can win a $50 Home Depot gift card.

Duro-Last Roofing

Duro Last certified contractor

Duro-Last PVC Roof System

The Duro-Last vinyl roof membrane is a proprietary thermoplastic formulation consisting of PVC resins, plasticizers, stabilizers, biocides, flame retardants and U.V. absorbents. A weft-insertion knitted scrim that is laminated between two layers of PVC film gives the membrane its strength and durability. The Duro-Last single-ply membrane is available in white, gray, dark gray, tan, or terra cotta.

Our flexible roof membrane is easily prefabricated into deck sheets up to 2,500 square feet in size, as well as custom-made parapet, stack, and curb flashings that eliminate most labor from critical roof areas – transitions and changes of plane. Prefabrication provides architects, specifiers, consultants, contractors, and building owners peace-of-mind regarding the watertight security of the roof installation. Learn more about the advantages of prefabrication.

Duro-Last has met or exceeded all major fire and wind code requirements, and regional approvals as necessary throughout the country. These certifications reinforce Duro-Last’s leadership in providing the consistent, watertight integrity that building owners expect.

Duro-Last has been approved by Factory Mutual as a 1-60,1-75, 1-90, 1-95, 1-105, 1-135, 1-150, 1-165, 1-195, 1-210, 1-270, 1-435, and 1-495 roofing system. Duro-Last is also listed by Underwriters Laboratories as a Class A, B, & C approved material. Evaluation services ICBO and NES have merged to form ICC-ES, which has evaluated Duro-Last for the International Building Code (IBC). The Duro-Last roofing system has been approved by the IBC and by code agency MIAMI-DADE for use in their respective jurisdictions.
