Investing in a new roof is a big decision. There are many factors to consider when making this investment, including the climate, the type of roofing material, and the roof’s pitch. Residential roofing companies offer various roofing materials and styles to choose from. Before and after roof installation, you should do a few things to ensure that your new roof lasts for many years.
After you have decided on the roofing style and materials, it is important to inspect the area where the roof will be installed. Ensure there are no trees or other objects that could damage the roof during installation. The best type of asphalt shingles has a fiberglass backing and an asphalt coating. They are also available in various colors to match the exterior of your home. Cool roof coating products can help keep your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
As a homeowner, you can learn how to repair your roof or hire a reputable roofing company to do it for you. If you decide to repair your roof yourself, ensure you have the proper tools and safety equipment.
Meet Laura! She’s now a happy homeowner and was a great success in 2018 when her home was funded by raffle ticket proceeds from Raising the Roof for Charity Raffle Homebuyer. Habitat STW received $50K from raffle ticket proceeds to fund the construction of her beautiful home in 2019.
They advertised these raffle tickets in the community’s Late 94.7 radio station. Laura was a beneficiary of this home because her special needs son needed a safe home with special needs and modifications, and Habitat STW provided these.
She also chose her preferred school district to live.
Habitat STW has been nominated by Raising the Roof for Charity Foundation to do a house and roofing construction again! This time around, there is an additional prize pool to win a beautiful three bedroom/3 bath custom-built house in Southern Oaks in Madisonville. This month you can get a chance to be part of this great tradition and enter your name for tickets at just $100 each – that’s less than half what they cost in 2018 (and don’t forget all credit card participants get 5% off). Your entry will also automatically put you in a raffle, and you too might just get a chance to be a new homeowner too!
