Carmen Torres has a new roof over her head and on her home, thanks to a South Florida companys social media campaign to give back to the community. Ironically, Torres, a single mother of 5 children and 6 grandchildren, successfully beat out other needy homeowners despite not even owning a computer!

Roofers from Miami's T&S Roofing Systems arrived to the Torres home at 18503 S.W. 355th Terrace in Homestead early in the morning to remove damaged shingles and replace Torres roof. While that was going on, friends and neighbors, employees of T&S Roofing, roofing suppliers from GAF and ABC and members from non-profit organization, Centro Campesino, celebrated in Torres yard during the Installation Celebration. The group shared food and enjoyed music while children jumped up and down in the bounce house.

I couldnt sleep last night thinking this was a dream, but when I woke up this morning, the roofers were here, said Torres. I am so excited and thankful to T&S Roofing and everyone who voted for me, she added.

Torres 24-year-old daughter Sarail and her youngest son, 17-year-old Liborio, who live with Torres and were crucial to her win, were also among those celebrating. The celebration comes after a six-month long social media campaign, sponsored by T&S Roofing Systems and No Roof Left Behind. The company asked neighbors to nominate a deserving and needy homeowner. Five finalists were announced and the one with the highest votes was awarded a new brand new roof from T&S Roofing.

South Florida has been good to us and we just wanted to give back to the community we love, said Louis Toledo, co-owner of T&S Roofing.

Every year, T&S helps those in the community, but this event is the companys largest to date. The partnership with the nationwide No Roof Left Behind program is T&S Roofing Systems way to give back to the community for ten successful years in the roofing business. The company owners, Toledo and Ernesto Sanchez, started as a small business and now apply for more roofing permits in Miami-Dade County, than any other roofer. Located at 1461 NW 23rd Street in Miami, T&S Roofing will pay all materials and labor costs for the Torres new roof.

Torres new roof really is a neighborhood affair. She was nominated with the help of Centro Campesino Farmworker Center, an agency that advises and helps low-income families and farmworkers in Florida. The agency told Torres about the program and put up her nomination and request for votes on its Facebook page. Torres daughter did the same thing. Torres then asked anyone and everyone she met to vote for her.

All of us at Centro Campesino Farmworker Center are delighted that T & S Roofing made this vital home improvement for the Torres family. Without it, if a severe storm hits our area, the family and the home, which means so much to them, would be in danger. Now they dont have to worry, said Diane Cantor, Executive Director of Centro Campesino.

Torres home has needed fixing for nearly a decade. Nearly ten years ago, Hurricane Katrina damaged her roof. The powerful storm lifted the shingles of the home and rotted the wood. At the time, the damage didnt seem like much, but over time, the roof has made Torres home difficult to live in. Now she doesnt have to worry about that.

Commercial roofing represents a wide range of roofing solutions used in the exterior part of a structure or a building. These roofing solutions are made from a variety of materials such as asphalt, rubber, asbestos, stone slabs, and wood. Different roofing products such as asphalt shingle, rubber shingle, and wood shingles are manufactured, which are used in certain commercial applications such as hotels, offices, malls, and medical centers.

The commercial roofing industry has remained a vital part of the industry despite being negatively impacted by global economic downturn. However, it is currently facing the challenge of manufacturing systems and products to meet energy conservation guidelines and stringent building codes, while continuing to meet property owner expectations for performance. Therefore, products and systems are being developed for increased insulation, high performance, and reflectivity in order to provide opportunities for systematic energy efficiency gains.

The growth of the construction industry has been one of the major factors driving the commercial roofing market. Increasing commercialization and rising disposable income of consumers have further contributed to the growth of the market. However, fluctuating prices of certain energy sources used in the manufacturing process such as crude oil have increased the risk of limitation and unavailability, leading to either reformulation of the products or limiting the production. Increasing use of roofing products in green building projects is expected to provide new opportunities for the growth of the market as buildings with low environmental impacts are growing in importance driving changes in the process of operating designing the buildings.

North America was the major consumer in the commercial roofing market, followed by Europe. However, growing construction market in emerging economies such as China and India has led to the market penetration in developing regions such as Asia-Pacific. Atlas Roofing, Building Products of Canada, CertainTeed Corporation, Genflex Roofing Sytems, Roofscapes Inc., and Weston Solutions Inc. are some of the key companies dominating the commercial roofing market.

NAPLES, Fla.- Sanitation crews are cleaning up a sealant that leaked into storm drains, that eventually lead to the Gordan River.

A roofing company was putting a sealant on the roof of the Suncoast Credit Union on North Horseshoe Drive on Tuesday, when rains came and washed it down into the storm drains. According to harbormaster Roger Jacobsen, the sealant was an acryllic paint that should not be placed into any of our water systems.

The bank manager said officials from Tidwells Urethane Foam Service are cleaning up the pollutant. Two vacuum trucks have already sucked up 5,000 gallons of the chemical to prevent it from going any further on into the water system.

The Naples code enforcement manager said the sealant in the water will not burn you or cause breathing problems, but that residents would not want to ingest it or swim in it. The manager said the city code is very clear that nothing but rain water should go into the storm drains.

The contractor could face fines, but right now, the focus is on getting the sealant cleaned up and preventing it from making its way to the Naples Bay.
