Ten years of good times have created a whole field of “roofing weeds” that were allowed to grow.
One of my friends used to brag about how great it was to live in Minneapolis. I used to kid him that all the riff raff froze out each winter. I can’t help but wonder how many roofers were weeded out this past year.
It is no secret that much of the country has been unseasonably dry. Of course no rain means no leaks. It is also no secret that Sept. 11 sent many consumers into a wait- and-see mode. Waiting to see what happens and no leaks make for a not so good roofing season.
