Who Told You Silicone Was Good For Roofs?
We're genuinely curious - and we understand.
No guilt, no condemnation… just better wisdom.
You had reasons. Good ones. Let’s talk about them.
💭 Tell us your story - what led to the silicone decision?
We believe in Real Roofing conversations to achieve healthy healing ❤️🩹
If you could talk to yourself 10 years ago… and provide some roofing advice, what would that sound like?
You weren’t wrong. You made the best decision you could with the information and budget available at that time. Silicone seemed like the smart choice - it paused the immediate pain and fit your budget.
But here’s the thing: That phase served its purpose. You got valuable experience. Now you’re wiser. And... The question now: Are you ready to graduate to something permanent?
