Here in Central Texas we're very conscious about energy costs. Even though the electricity rates are fairly low, the amount of energy consumption that occurs to keep homes comfortable in the summer is notable.
When energy costs seem excessive, something that property owners may not consider is how roofing insulation may be contributing to the problem. In addition to high energy bills, you may notice:
When insulation around the roof isn't up to par, your HVAC system is going to get worked overtime. That will do more than waste electricity. It will cause premature wear and tear that shortens the lifespan of your HVAC unit. To avoid all of these problems you'll need to examine the insulation issues and take steps to get the roof better insulated.

Whether inadequate roof insulation is the result of a poor installation or water damage, the result is the same - wasted energy that costs you money. Here are some ways that you can correct the situation to stop wasting electricity and start feeling more comfortable.
Regular inspections provide homeowners with a lot of valuable information. A professional roofer can not only tell you if you have proper insulation but also identify other ways you can save energy with roofing improvements. For example, the roofer may find that you have a lot of air leaks around the roof or there isn't enough ventilation to circulate the air.
A roof inspection will give you a full rundown of all the ways you can stop wasting energy and start saving money.
If the attic insulation is inadequate there's only one fix - add more insulation. Here again it helps to work with an experienced roofer. They can tell you what level of insulation is most appropriate for the local environment, and more importantly, your home.
You can make your roof more energy efficient with a special protective coating that blocks UV rays so that the roof absorbs less solar heat. It's like a first layer of insulation that helps to keep the temperature inside more comfortable and constant from the outside.
Some roofing materials are made with protective coatings already applied. You can also apply protective coatings to existing roofs in some cases. Just be careful if you have asphalt shingles because adding a protective coating could void the warranty.
Roof insulation is added to the areas between the roof deck and ceilings rather than on the floor of the attic. Insulation that can be applied directly to the roof deck includes blown-in cellulose, perlite cover boards and spray foam insulation.
Last but not least is regular inspections and roof maintenance. It will not only keep the roofing material in better condition so it insulates better but will help you catch issues like leaks that can make insulation less effective.
