Why You Should Hire a Professional to Maintain Your Roof!

 

Winter is fast approaching and the two times per year that we suggest you have a professional perform maintenance on your roof is October and November and May and June. Just before the snow and cold weather hits and just before the hot summers approach.

 

First there is Gutter Maintenance

The Joke of the day.... "SHINGLES"

A man walked into a doctor's office and the receptionist asked him what he had.

He replied, "I got shingles."  

She said, "Fill out this form and supply your name, address, medical insurance number. When you're done, please take a seat." 

Fifteen minutes later a nurse's aide came out and asked him what he had. He said, "I got shingles."  

So she took down his height, weight, and complete medical history, then said, "Change into this gown and wait in the examining room." 

A half hour later a nurse came in and asked him what he had. He said, "I got shingles."

So she gave him a blood test , a blood pressure test, an electrocardiogram, and told him to wait for the doctor. 

An hour later the doctor came in and asked him what he had. He said, "Shingles."

The doctor gave him a full-cavity examination, and then said, "I just checked you out thoroughly, and I can't find shingles anywhere."  

The man replied, "They're outside in the truck. Where do you want them?"
