Tax Credit
The 2009 Stimulus Package provides substantial tax credits to homeowners who make energy efficient updates to their home. One of the best ways to qualify for the credit is installation of a painted or coated Energy StarŪ labeled metal roof.
Homeowners installing qualified roofs in 2009 and 2010 may be eligible for a tax credit worth up to 30% of the materials cost (materials only) up to $1,500 per home. Cool metal roofing not only looks great and lasts for decades, it has been shown to save up to 40% on energy costs, depending on your regional climate.
How to receive the tax credit:
1.Contact Kettlewell Construction to discuss a new metal roof for your home.
2.Confirm that the metal roof you select is a prepainted or coated Energy Star-labeled metal roof with pigmented coating/paint film specifically designed to reduce heat gain, and obtain certification from Kettlewell Construction, or the manufacturer.
3.Have Kettlewell Construction install your new metal roof on your principal residence between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2010. For further information on the requirements for tax credit eligibility click here and/or consult with your tax advisor.
4.Fill out IRS Form 5695 Residential Energy Credits when filing your taxes for 2009 and/or 2010.
Homes upgraded with quality metal roofing typically see costs recouped at more than three quarters of the job cost. Learn more about Renovation Appreciation with Metal Roofing. You might even qualify for a discount of up to 35% on your homeowners insurance.
