(Newswire.net — May 27, 2013) Granbury, TX — In the wake of the devastating tornados that rocked the small town of Granbury more than a week ago, home and business owners are now left to deal with the damage and the task of securing their property before more spring weather arrives. Unfortunately these events bring out the unscrupulous “would be roofing contractors” that take advantage of desperate homeowners shocked by the events but compelled to take action.
According to Leon Munson of ACC Roofing “reputable roofers are fed up with this and have to deal with it every year when the weather gets rough”. “It’s heartbreaking” says Munson “when people under extremely tough conditions get taken advantage of by pretend roofers that sweep in from out of town immediately…. and we’re left to try and correct things.”
“There is a way to avoid being ripped off” says Munson. Start with the Better Business Bureau and check the reputation of the roofer. The DFW metro area is home to more roofers than any other place in the country. As a precaution in these circumstances never even consider a roofer not under their watchful eye. Make sure they are licensed, insured, and a member of the Roofing Contractors Association. Be especially wary of bids far below the norm. They are usually accompanied by sub-standard components and shoddy labor. “The sad thing” says Munson, “is that innocent people shocked by the devastation are easy targets for these scammers. Our hearts go out to these people and we really want to protect and support them.”
Roofers like ACC Roofing, that are among a handful of roofing contractors in the DFW area with a flawless BBB record spanning decades, will always be a safe bet. They have stable crews, use top grade materials, and are experts that can help you work hand in hand with your insurance company to get repairs funded quickly. They can support both residential and commercial clients.
Home and business owners will need help with emergency tarps and temporary security patches to keep their damaged properties dry until permanent repairs can be made. “Estimates will always be free so never agree to any charges to do an estimate” says Munson. Roofers are an important part of the team that helps rebuild these broken neighborhoods. “Most of us run honest operations and really do care” says Munson. It takes a lot of roofers to rebuild a town and during disasters like these the good roofers become less like competitors and more like team mates helping out the community at large.
Reputable roofers like ACC think people have had enough of roofing scams from storm chaser roofers and are trying to do something about it. They’re available now in the tornado ravaged area to provide real emergency roofing in Granbury. For immediate help call ACC Roofing 817-572-3402 or visit online at roofingdfwtx.com
