He says rainwater slowly seeps inside\u2014so much that it\u2019s almost unsafe.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were struggling for years&#8211;me and my family, saving up trying to get this roof,&#8221; said Kish. &#8220;We\u2019ve had leaks everywhere. It\u2019s all about the children, trying to keep them safe.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Like most things in the state, the cost for roofing material has shot up during the inflation. Because of this, Kish turned to Owens Corning\u2019s Roof Deployment Project for help with the $12,500 bill and to Tallahassee\u2019s Tadlock Roofing to carry out the replacement. Thomas Catalano is the company\u2019s local branch manager. He says they received the call just in time.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Unfortunately the roof was already leaking so it was already showing signs of system failure,&#8221; said Catalano. &#8220;We have another hurricane like we did with Michael or any other hurricanes that have hit the panhandle; and the roof would have very likely failed, and it would have been a catastrophic loss.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The company expects the new system to be complete by Tuesday. They\u2019re installing 130mph wind resistant shielding to better withstand any future storms. Something Kish says his family is grateful to now have.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cServing in the military you know; you always want to fight for everything. I appreciate what they have given us and support for veterans and it just means so much to us,&#8221; said Kish.  <\/p>\n<div class=\"fullattribution\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google-analytics.com\/__utm.gif?utmac=UA-5828686-4&amp;utmdt=Tallahassee+veteran+receives+brand+new+roof+as+part+of+a+national+project&amp;utme=8(APIKey)9(MDA4MzU1MzUzMDEzMTkyMzAwMzY5MjY1Mw004)\" \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":15004,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","wds_primary_category":0},"categories":[],"tags":[1136,1135],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.3 -
