HIALEAH, FL, September 17, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- As the CEO and President of East Coast Metals in Hialeah, Florida, Tom Castellanos has remained a strong business leader focused on advancing roofing technology and solutions. Having grown a company that is now recognized for its progressive innovations in roofing and high-quality service, Castellanos notes that such ingenuity is important for not only the expansion of his market, but the construction industry as well. Reflexively, he notes that advancements in the construction industry also hold a major impact on how the roofing sector is able to improve and perform in the current market.

While construction and property development has remained a critical subject in regards to America's rebounding economy in recent months, Tom Castellanos explains that current spikes in construction spending suggest even greater expansion in the near future. Castellanos points to a recent article from USA Today that discusses the expansive growth of overall construction spending in the U.S.

The article reveals, "Spending on U.S. construction projects rose in July, led by strong gains in housing and nonresidential projects. Construction spending increased 0.6 percent in July compared with June, when activity was unchanged, the Commerce Department reported Tuesday. The June performance represented an upward revision from an initial estimate that spending had fallen 0.6 percent. Total construction activity rose to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $900.8 billion in July, the strongest performance since June 2009."

Tom Castellanos responds, "While there have been moderate fluctuations in construction in months past, it is very critical that the industry is reaching a point that has not been witnessed for more than four years. This steady growth in spending is not only likely to make a strong impact on the growth of the roofing market, but other important sectors that provide materials, equipment, and services for such expansive development."

In addition, USA Today explains, "The advance in housing activity pushed residential construction to its highest level since September 2008. The increase for nonresidential building was led by a 6.1 percent increase in construction of hotels and motels. Office-building and the category that covers shopping centers also showed gains."

It is important to note that construction spending is not being focused on one particular area of the market, such as housing. The balance in projects being observed suggests that prosperity and development is impacting--and may continue to grow--for both residential and corporate markets," Tom Castellanos concludes.
