I wish I had known about Rodney and Ana Rael and their company, A New Millennium, a few years ago when I was looking for a roofing company for my home. If I had, I would have chosen their company and would have gotten greater coverage and insulation at a lower cost. Well, now I know, and I can recommend this company to others.
There are several reasons why I would choose A New Millennium and I want to share them with you, but, first, let me tell you a little about the company and its founders and current owners Rodney and Ana Rael.
A New Millennium is an award-winning roofing and insulation company, the only one award winning company of its kind presently in Albuquerque. The award, from the Spray Polyurethane Foam Alliance, is based on customer satisfaction, risk management policies, and innovative procedures among other qualifications.
Rodney Rael has over 20 years of experience in the spray foam industry. He had been in the spray foam roofing business for six years before starting A New Millennium in 2001. At first he concentrated on spray foam roofing, but, when a friend who had owned a business that specialized in insulating and stuccoing homes joined his company, he expanded to doing walls as well as roofs. For fourteen years now, Rael has installed and insulated roofs and, for the past five, walls, from small homes to ultra-large businesses, and his customers have expressed a great deal of satisfaction for the process, the price, and the quality of the work.
You may have heard, as I had, that spray foam is not the best thing to do for your home. Several years back, there were companies in New Mexico that did a very poor job with spray foam and earned the process a bad reputation. Just as with anything, if the person who installs something doesn’t do it correctly, it’s not going to work. That’s what happened. Those companies are no longer around. Rael uses innovative materials and processes that surpass anything else you could put on your home.
Now why would I choose A New Millennium for my home insulation and roofing? First of all, have you ever had a tar and gravel roof put on your home? If you have, then you have memories of the sometimes weeks-long process of workers scraping away over your head along with the overpowering smell of hot tar. Not so with spray foam. In less than a week, your roof and home can have a seamless covering that will last years. The spray cures up very quickly sealing up cracks and problem areas. Workers then put final touches around swamp coolers or HVAC units and, in much less time than it takes to do a tar roof, your brand new roof is installed. Maybe you are considering TPO, or single ply roofing, Rael suggests otherwise.   “These TPO and single ply roofs are the thickness of a dime, and sure the contractor offers a ‘lifetime warranty’ but that warranty doesn’t cover hail damage which obliterates these roofs!”
Tired of your stucco walls cracking?  Not with this system! . Spray foam covers all imperfections, insulates (just the way the spray foam insulated the liquid nitrogen fuel tank of the space shuttle) and then a synthetic stucco is troweled on over that. Keep in mind that the covering on the roof will be one and one-half inches thick and, on the walls, one inch thick, providing super insulation.
If foam spray is applied correctly, it will last for years. A New Millennium gives a 20 year guarantee on every roof it sprays and five years no crack guarantee on stucco walls.  You don’t get that with your standard tar and gravel roof that so many homes in New Mexico have and, if you have ever had your home stuccoed, you know how fast cracks can appear. So there are three reasons I would choose A New Millennium: neater, quicker installation, great warranties, and space age insulation.
Price is yet another good reason to choose Rodney and Ana Rael’s company. In recent years, the price of petroleum products has soared making tar roofs much more expensive than they have ever been. On the other hand, spray foam prices have remained stable and so it is costs just a little more than an old fashioned tar and gravel roof, but oh so superior!
Another most important reason for choosing A New Millennium is the fact that it employs its own crews, and the workers have been with Rael for many years. He told me, “There is very little turnover in the company. Our workers like their jobs and know what they’re doing. They know our philosophy is to give the best product for the most reasonable cost and they all work with me very hard to do just that.”  That’s probably why there are so many satisfied customers and why the company has so many referrals.
Here’s an example of how Rael thinks beyond the box to give his customers the best possible job he can. The pumps that are made to spray the foam frequently malfunction and fail to give the proper balance of materials in the spray. Rodney Rael worked with the pump and altered it so that if a malfunction occurs, the pump automatically turns itself off. You are ensured that the material that is being sprayed on a Rael job is always going to be in the right proportions. I like that kind of commitment to doing the best work possible, don’t you?
