BUT, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.riverroofing.com\">River Roofing<\/a> came out on Wednesday and got us dried in BEFORE the latest round of rain. And that&#8217;s why I use and recommend them.

Another top-notch company. They care about where the vents go, how it all goes together and how it looks as well as how it works.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s the latest update; more later.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have had rain and more rain.
