While industry veterans have seen just about anything made into roofing, they have also seen metal roofing made into just about anything. That flexibility is creating new markets for roofing contractors.
In 2002, approximately one million new homes were sold, but that remains a hard market for roofing contractors to tap into, unless it’s a skilled job like metal.
