Don’t miss these top articles on AskARoofer™ from last month. 

Three of the most read articles this month featured the generosity of the roofing community. A U.S. Navy veteran in Parkersburg, West Virginia, received a new roof for free thanks to the Owens Corning Roof Deployment Program; a U.S. Army veteran in Maryland similarly received support from Habitat for Humanity and Owens Corning® when roof damage had caused leaks in the back of his home; a veteran in Tennessee ended his 13-year military career due to a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis and received a free roof thanks to a friend’s kindness when he thought it was too late for his luck to change. 

Ask any kid to draw you a house, more than likely the roof is going to be represented by two steep lines converging at a peak. But what about a curved roof? In the days of thatched roofs, bending tree branches into curved shapes was easier and more popular than today. However, curved roofs are now presenting a modern twist on classic roof designs. If you’re considering buying a house with a curved roof or designing one of your own, use FL Specialty Roofing’s guide on how to choose the best material – and a skilled contractor – for the job. 

With severe weather increasing across the U.S., everyone is talking about the changing seasons. In this month’s most read article, DaVinci Roofscapes provides tips for roof maintenance to ensure your home is protected before the cold weather hits. Read the full article to learn more about safely visualizing potential areas of concern and how to find a local roofer to discuss your repairs or replacement this fall.
