Dressed in our best lobster outfits and dancing shoes, Coastal Windows & Exteriors joined the community at the popular Beverly Homecoming Lobsterfest in Beverly, MA.
Located at Lynch Park, the Lobsterfest features traditional boiled lobster, lobster roll or chowder as Beverly residents mingle with friends and neighbors. Coastal Windows & Exteriors support this community event by sharing the importance of recyclable exterior remodeling materials. Up to 90% of all trash from the event is diverted from the waste stream with composting and recycling stations available.
“We are so happy to have the opportunity to support Beverly’s Lobsterfest Homecoming Event, celebrating the spirit of Beverly,” says Stephanie Vanderbilt, owner of Coastal Windows & Exteriors. “We love supporting Beverly as a local women owned, family run business on Cabot
Street focusing on sustainable, energy-efficient roofing, siding, windows and doors. It was a great tie in with the event as we also share a passion for sustainable environmentally friendly exterior remodeling products.”
Shelling Out Games, Fun Times & Raffle Prizes
Everyone had a shell of a time at the Beverly Homecoming Lobsterfest. Coastal Windows & Exteriors added to the excitement of the day with various lawn games, a free raffle valued at over $500, and the hit of the event-lobster headbands and stuffed animals for everyone who shared Facebook or Instagram photos (see below) or signed up for a free estimate for roofing, siding, windows and/or doors.
We met with many local North Shore homeowners from Beverly, Danvers, Peabody up to Cape Ann in Gloucester and Rockport. These homeowners have common problems such as leaky roofs, old wood siding, drafty and fogged windows, and inefficient doors. Many people shared that they are facing high energy bills during the summer with this heat wave, so we discussed how our products or energy efficient can save them money.

Sustainable Exterior Remodeling Products Aligning with the Waste-Free Event
In support of the waste-free event, Coastal Windows & Exteriors educated the community about sustainable exterior remodeling products, during a time when climate change is a major concern.

Sustainable Vinyl Siding
In comparison to other types of siding, vinyl is a surprisingly green cladding option. Since our siding requires minimal raw materials, it produces virtually no waste.
Vinyl siding requires less water and energy per square foot than fiber cement and less than half the energy and fuel of brick and mortar. Plus, since vinyl is a much lighter product, it requires less fossil fuel for transportation.
Meanwhile, vinyl siding does not require mass harvesting of trees for manufacturing. This is one of the biggest benefits when you compare vinyl siding to wood siding.
Sustainable Roofing
Is asphalt roofing a sustainable option for exterior remodeling? Absolutely! In fact, Coastal Windows & Exteriors is a GAF Certified Green Roofer.
The requirements for becoming a GAF Certified Green Roofer are as follows:
- The completion of a sustainability assessment
- Completing the “Asphalt Shingles and the Green Home” course through GAF CZZ
- Joining the local USGBC chapter
- The roofing contractor must complete a quarterly recycling activity report
You can read all about our GAF Green Roofer certification by clicking here.
But what exactly makes our roofing products sustainable?
- A quality asphalt roof can last for many, many decades which keeps it out of the landfill.
- Energy efficient roofing systems with adequate ventilation will help regulate the attic’s temperature.
- Keeping the attic at an ideal temperature (close to the temperature outdoors) will prevent your HVAC from working in overdrive.
Sustainable Replacement Windows
Vinyl replacement windows are an eco-friendly choice for Beverly homeowners, as well as the surrounding communities of New England.
Our vinyl replacement windows are energy efficient and eco-friendly for the following reasons:
- Requires very little natural resources to manufacture.
- Does not require the harvesting of trees.
- Easy and cost-effective to install.
- Excellent insulator with foam inside the window frame chambers.
- Argon and krypton gases inside the window chambers will enhance insulation power
- Can help reduce your carbon footprint by using less heating and cooling. This is imperative during a time when energy costs are expected to increase by 30% in comparison to 2021.
- Lasts for a lifetime.
