By Evelyn Witterholt. 

Here’s what’s been trending in the AskARoofer™ newsroom for the month of May. 

When a homeowner needs a roof repair, the last thing they need is to get scammed in the process. We often hear from many homeowners who did get scammed about their experience and we share these stories to our readers to help them avoid this hardship. One of our most read articles from last month came to us from DaVinci Roofscapes, who tells the story of a couple who got scammed by a builder during the construction of their new home. Thankfully in this story, the roofer is the one who saved the day! 

Coastal homes need roofs that can withstand elements like wind and saltwater. One of our most popular articles from May was a project profile of a re-roofing job on a coastal home by Dupont™ Tedlar®. The builders ended up using Blue Tedlar® on the aluminum roof, leaving the home with a stunning look that is also highly durable.  

Our most read article from last month was an interview that DaVinci Roofscapes had with Taylor Bookman, a project manager from T-Rock Roofing. In this interview, Taylor answers homeowners’ top questions about roofing, including what to look for during a roof replacement and why they should consider composite roofing as the material for their new roof.
