Welcome back to the Southern Builders blog! As we step into the thick of summer, temperatures are soaring across the country—and in many areas, they’re reaching record-breaking levels. If you’re living in a mobile or manufactured home, you already know how quickly the heat can turn your cozy space into an oven.
At Southern Builders, we’re all about helping you stay safe, comfortable, and protected—no matter what the weather’s doing. And when it comes to extreme heat, your roof plays a huge role in keeping your home cool and your energy bills in check.
How Summer Heat Affects Mobile Homes
Unlike site-built homes, mobile homes often have thinner insulation and less attic space, making it harder to block out the sun’s intense rays. When the roof absorbs all that heat, it doesn’t take long for it to radiate into your living space—forcing your air conditioner to work overtime and driving up your electric bill.
If your roof is old, poorly insulated, or made from low-grade materials, it might not be doing much to help. That’s where the Perma-Roof system comes in.
Stay Cool with the Perma-Roof
Our Perma-Roof system is engineered to protect your mobile home from the elements—especially the scorching heat of summer. Made from #1 Commercial Grade Heavy Duty 29 Ga Steel, it’s designed to reflect heat instead of absorbing it, helping to reduce interior temperatures and improve overall comfort.
Here’s how the Perma-Roof system keeps you cool and comfortable:
Reflective, Insulated Panels – Designed to bounce solar heat away from your home instead of absorbing it.
Polystyrene Foil-Back Insulation – Provides a thermal barrier that helps maintain indoor temperatures.
Custom-Fit Installation – No wood required; it fits over your existing roof structure, sealing out the heat and helping your A/C run more efficiently.
Energy Efficiency – Reduced strain on your cooling system means lower energy bills month after month.
Real Relief, Real Results
Our customers consistently tell us how much cooler and more comfortable their homes feel after installing the Perma-Roof. Whether you’re dealing with midday heat or long, humid evenings, the difference is real—and so is the relief.
Now Is the Time
With temperatures climbing and the sun beating down, now is the perfect time to upgrade your roof before summer’s heat peaks even further. Plus, with ongoing steel tariffs and rising material costs, locking in your installation today helps you save in the long run.
Don’t wait for the next heatwave to make your move—protect your home, your comfort, and your energy budget with a Perma-Roof system.
