Louisiana roofing contractors are now working to recover from the fifth named hurricane to hit the area, bringing with it a slew of work and complications.
With a third hurricane on its way to the Gulf Coast in the form of Hurricane Delta, roofing contractors are struggling to keep up while dealing with supply shortages.
Around 16,000 FORTIFIED Roofs endured sustained wind gusts of up to 105 mph from Hurricane Sally and only experienced minor damage, said IBHS officials.
Massive storms continue to batter Gulf Coast states, complicating pandemic-related issues like liability and supply chains for roofing contractors, says Cotney Construction Law.
The storm made landfall on Aug. 27 as a Category 4 hurricane with winds of 150 mph, causing massive devastation to southwestern Louisiana and southeastern Texas.
The pandemic has affected everything from how quickly contractors can mobilize for Hurricane Laura to how they should deal with paid time off as school begins.
Recovering from a hurricane is never easy, but contractors face additional difficulties due to COVID-19 and supply chain issues caused by the pandemic.
