Roofing Atlanta: $1500 Tax Credit Towards a New Roof!


j0440988Find out How To get a $1,500 tax credit on a New Atlanta Roof in Ga!

Here at Advanced Systems Roofing we are highly interested in a “Green” world.  One of the best ways to achieve this goal is by Energy Conservation through a Green roofing system.

The new economic stimulus bill has tripled the previous Energy Star
tax credit to $1500.  You may ask what type of roofing qualifies.

Well, Atlanta metal roofs and “reflective asphalt shingles” that also meet ENERGY STAR requirements are eligible for the tax credit.  We offer Asphalt Shingle and Metal Roofing installations for New Construction and Re-Roofs for Commercial and Residential structures.

Keep in mind Energy Star ratings are based on reflectivity, so they are mostly beneficial to non-shaded homes that endure
a lot of sun.

The most energy efficient choice is a… Stone-Coated Steel roof (using recycled steel) that acts like double-pane windows with its air-space and will insulate your home year round.  This will save the homeowner money for the entire duration of the roof’s life which will be in excess of fifty years.  Going with a metal roof will help reduce shingles and other “temporary roofs” from clogging our landfills and will save valuable resources, such as, petroleum used for shingles and trees used for wood shake roofs.

How is the tax credit calculated?  The tax credit is for 30% of the cost of roofing materials only, up to $1,500. Installation or labor costs are not eligible for the 30% tax credit. Roof coatings are NOT eligible for the tax credit.

You may also want to know if your income affects your tax credit.  No,

There is no upper or lower limit on income for the energy efficient tax credits.

However, these energy efficiency tax credits are technically “non-refundable” which means you can’t get more money back in tax credits than you pay in federal income taxes (check your W2 or last year’s tax return to get a sense for how much federal income tax you pay). You can claim the entire credit as long as the total amount of federal income tax that you owe, minus your deductions, is more than the total amount of all non-refundable tax credits that you are claiming.

What do I need to submit to the IRS for verification?  Manufacturers should provide a  Manufacturer’s Certification Statement and you should keep this for your records or it may be published on their website.  Otherwise, you are not required to submit it to the IRS, you or your accountant will just fill out the appropriate “residentail energy tax credit” form (form 5695) and submit it with your taxes.
