Roofing Day at the Texas State Capital

Roofing Day at the Texas State Capital

I was honored to spend the day at the Texas State Capital on February 27, 2019 for Roofing Day. It was a great experience meeting with those who make our system of government work in Texas and spending time with so many of my hard-working friends in the roofing and restoration community–true professionals passionate about the contributions they make to their communities. I met with various representatives regarding the roofer registration bill proposed by RCAT and NTRCA this legislative session. S.B. No. 1168, submitted by Senator Zaffirini, and H.B. No. 2101, submitted by Representative Capriglione, both propose registration of reroofing contractors as a means of vetting restoration contractors seeking to sell their services following a hail or wind event. Please join us in supporting this consumer-friendly legislation. You can visit https://www.saferoofsovertexas.com/ for more information.
