Also known as the white roof, the cool roof is one of the common eco-friendly rooftops that you can get. The cool roof mostly has a white or light color. Because the color is white, the rays of the sun get reflected hence providing a cooling effect. As such, having a cool roof will be an added advantage to your home as there will be no need to use the air conditioning during the day. Moreover, this will lead to reduced energy bills for your home.

The corrugated roof comes in different styles and colors, and the fact that it is multifaceted makes it easier for manufacturers to make different designs. Additionally, the roof is quite easy to fix and lasts much longer compared to other roofing options available in the market.
