    6 Way to Improve Your Home Air Quality (And 1 Solution Thats a Waste of Time) – PureWow

    - October 20, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    3. Damp Mop and DustAccording to the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, the act of dusting can actually make allergies worse, since the cloud of dust stirred up can make sufferers sneeze, and get stuffy noses and watery or red, itchy eyes. To avoid dust and the tiny dust mites that feed off of it, avoid wall-to-wall carpeting, especially in bedrooms. If youre the sufferer, wear an N95 mask while youre cleaning (and for a couple hours after, while the dust settles); if a family member is sensitive to dust, its best to ask them to leave for the few hours it takes to clean the house. Get rid of unnecessary clutter, which is a dust magnet, and dampen your microfiber dusting cloth before swiping it across a surface, so that youre not circulating the dust.4. Test Your Air Quality

    Air quality testers use laser beams and electrochemical sensors to determine pollutants in the air. While noted tech-testing site Wirecutter cautions against investing in a pricey air quality monitor since these devices only report and dont remedy the problem, the sites product testers allow that it can still be helpful to have a finer assessment of your homes air quality than just looking up your neighborhood AQI. The Temtop M10 monitor is a sleek little cube thats relatively affordable at $80 and detects particles in the air, volatile organic compounds and formaldehyde. One user said she had the monitor in a nearby room when she opened a bottle of nail polish and the HCHO (formaldehyde) and TVOC (total volatile organic compounds) numbers skyrocketed and didnt go down for hours.

    You track in pollutants on your shoes, and your home is a veritable soup of dead skin cells, animal dander and whatever wafts in the windows from nearby roadways, according to Todd Nelson at Studio City Vacuum and Sewing. Theres no point in having any air purifier if youre just moving dust around with your vacuum, he says, so he recommends skipping the bagless models because almost all of them spew dust. Look for a model that has a HEPA filter, in addition to other filters (i.e., charcoal for odors), such as a Miele model that uses its cloth dust bags as filters. While the expense of a high-end vacuum might be daunting (Miele, for example, ranges from $400 to $1,500), refurbished models are often available at licensed retailers for half the cost of a new model.

    Vote yes on OOB Question 1

    To the editor,

    For a town in which I was born, and one where Ill spend my golden years walking the beaches and drinking coffee and enjoying lively discussions at the Ocean Park Sub and Grocery, I am deeply committed to preserving a safe and prosperous Old Orchard Beach for generations to come. That is why Im voting YES on Question 1.

    Question 1 will bond $23.5 million so that we can finally fix our aging wastewater system. As a Planning Board member, I know first-hand that our system is not capable of growing with us. There have been a number of new developments in town that weve approved, but we could not put them on the current sewer system because of capacity issues. These developments have had to install private septic tanks to process their waste, which is not ideal.

    We can no longer put off the inevitable long-term repairs required to keep the wastewater system functional. Its impossible to find replacement parts; the odor is terrible and we need to expand capacity. These are all things weve needed to do for 20 years.

    I volunteer with the State of Maines Healthy Beaches organization, testing water quality to make sure that we are continually meeting State of Maine standards water quality standards. It is critical that we protect our watershed and our beaches to provide a safe environment for our residents, businesses and guests to enjoy. We risk our future if we dont invest in it today. Please join me in voting YES on Question 1 this November. We may never get this opportunity again.

    Re-elect Susan Deschambault, SD 32

    To the editor,

    With the turmoil created by the pandemic, economic recession, and current political climate, re-electing Susan Deschambault to the SD 32 seat in the Maine State Senate is essential. Senator Deschambault consistently represents the needs of our community at the state level, and her record of success speaks to her leadership.

    Senator Deschambault cares about fixing our health care system which we need now more than ever. She has worked to lower the cost of prescription drugs, ensured Mainers cannot be denied health care coverage because of pre-existing conditions, and believes that no one should be thrown into poverty because of unexpected illness.

    Senator Deschambault cares about community safety a conversation that requires experienced leadership to navigate. Not only was she Biddefords first-ever female police commissioner, she also worked for the Department of Corrections as a social worker for more than 40 years. This breadth of experience in criminal justice, rehabilitation, and community support is essential to tackling the questions of safety and security for all that face us anew today.

    To tackle the complex issues ahead, we must re-elect Susan Deschambault to the Maine State Senate. I hope you will join me in voting for Susan Deschambault to represent Maine SD 32.

    To the editor,

    As a middle school teacher with over 20 years of experience, one of the great joys of my career is witnessing former students become successful, contributing members of their community. This is why I was elated to get word that one of my former students, Joshua Parks, was running for the School Board in Saco. As a student, I found Josh passionate about learning and invested in his school. His witty sense of humor and overall respect for his peers and teachers made him a favorite to all that associated with him. It is because of these skills that he developed early in his schooling, that I was not surprised to hear that he was voted as president of the Student Senate while attending Southern Maine Community College. Josh is, and always has been, someone that looks out for people and wants what is best for his community. I couldnt be happier that he is running for school board and will be encouraging my friends and family to vote for Joshua Parks in the upcoming election on Nov. 3.

    The geography of environmental toxins in the District of Columbia – The D.C. Policy Center

    - October 20, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Living in a toxin-free environment is essential to peoples mental and physical health. Being exposed to chemicals from pollution in soil, air, and water has wide ranging health effects including acute asthma symptoms, hormone disruption, decreased mental ability, and cancer. A U.S. national environmental quality index determined that there are over 30 more cases of cancer in counties with poor environmental quality than in counties with the least exposure to toxins in the air, water, and soil (approximately a seven percent increase).[1]

    In addition to being a health issue, a toxin-free environment is also a quality-of-life issue with equity implications. Across the United States, low-income communities and communities of color are more likely to be exposed to environmental toxins. Facilities using toxic substances that can pollute the soil, air, and water are often located in low-income, non-white neighborhoods.[2] The demographics are similar for neighborhoods containing hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal plants.[3] Additionally, studies have shown that within cities, low-income neighborhoods are exposed to higher levels of air pollution from highways and factories, putting residents at higher risk for acute asthma attacks and other illnesses.[4]

    In an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ranking of environmental pollution in metropolitan areas in the United States, called the Risk Screening Environmental Indicators (RSEI), the District of Columbia ranks 576 out of 2,357 localities.[5] D.C. is a dense urban environment. As such, every ward in the District has some exposure to chemicals that are released by daily activities including personal transportation, household behavior, and commercial activity. However, given the Districts RSEI ranking in the top quartile of counties, we wondered what environmental hazards exist here? Where in the city are these hazards concentrated? What does that mean for the health and health equity of District residents?

    A survey of the Districts environmental hazards, their locations, and their impacts follows, examining soil contamination, air pollution, and water pollution. Overall, we have found that residents of Wards 4, 5, and 6 are disproportionately exposed to chemicals in the soil, air, and water from sources outside of daily activity.[6]

    In the District, as in the rest of the United States, there is contaminated land due to hazardous waste being dumped, left out, or improperly managed. Soil contamination can happen if hazardous chemicals are spilled or improperly disposed of, as well as if contaminated soil migrates to uncontaminated areas. Contamination can occur if chemicals are not stored properly, during the application of fertilizers or pesticides, and through chemical and industrial processes. People then can be exposed to chemicals by breathing in contaminated dust, touching contaminated soil, or eating food grown in contaminated soil, in turn impacting their health.

    The most common element polluting soil in D.C. is leaking underground storage tanks (LUSTs). These tanks often hold petroleum and sewage, which contain bacteria and chemicals that are harmful to human health. Brownfields, or sites where future use is affected by environmental contamination, are the next most common soil contaminant contributors, and are concentrated in parts of the city where there has been significant development in recent years. More brownfields may be found in the future as more properties around the city are redeveloped. Superfund sites represent the lowest number of soil contamination sites in the District and are largely driven by dry cleaners. The majority of superfund sites are located in Wards 4 and 6.

    Underground storage tanks (USTs) are tanks and underground piping connected to tanks, with at least ten percent of the container volume below ground. They can hold toxic materials including but not limited to hazardous waste, regulated substances, septic materials, wastewater, oil, and gasoline (petroleum). USTs are a potential hazard if they contain toxic chemicals that leak into the soil and groundwater. Congress began regulating USTs in 1984, creating protocols for tank installation, design, corrective action, and closure to minimize tank leaks. As of 2005, USTs are inspected every three years to identify leaks and other potential issues.[7] Since 1987, officials have identified 1847 leaking underground storage tanks (LUSTs) in the District, the majority of which have been cleaned up and had their leaks corrected.

    D.C.s underground storage tanks are regulated locally by the District Department of Energy and Environment (DOEE) Underground Storage Tank (UST) Program. DOEE has identified leaking underground storage tanks (LUSTs) and engaged in cleanup efforts to protect against adverse effects of petroleum, petroleum related products, and hazardous materials.

    DOEE has established standards for chemical levels in order to protect the health and safety of District residents. The department tests soil for many chemicals found in oil, gas, and hazardous materials including total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs), gasoline range organics, and diesel range organics. Additionally, groundwater is tested for many chemicals including lead, benzene, and toluene.[8] The health effects of these chemicals require more study and are dependent on the amount and type (skin, air, water, etc.) of exposure.

    Nonetheless, some health effects of chemical exposure are known. Lead exposure can cause damage to childrens developing nervous system resulting in IQ loss and impacts on learning, memory, behavior, and growth; kidney (renal) effects in adults; anemia; reproductive disorders; and neurological impairments. Studied health disorders related to total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs) include skin and eye irritation, breathing and neurologic problems, and stress. TPHs impact mental health and induce physical and physiological effects, and are potentially toxic to genetic, immune, and endocrine systems. The long-term effects of TPHs in humans are not fully understood yet and certain symptoms may persist for years after exposure.[9] TPHs and Benzene have also been linked to cancer in medical studies.[10] At present, there is not enough data to determine if Ethylbenzene and Xylenes, other chemicals found in petroleum, cause cancer.

    Since 1987, the District has registered 1847 leaking underground storage tanks (LUSTs). The good news is most of these sites have now been cleaned up. As of 2020, only 130 of those 1847 tanks have not completed cleanup and are still currently active, potentially damaging and contaminating nearby soil and groundwater. While LUSTs have been remediated and cleaned up in every ward in the District, a higher proportion of Ward 2 LUSTs have been cleaned up and resolved than LUSTs in other wards. While Ward 2 held 18.9 percent of leaking underground storage tanks over the last 30 years,[11] it currently accounts for 8.46 percent of active leaking sites (11/130).

    A brownfield is a property where development and reuse of land are hindered by previous contamination by hazardous substances. The District employs voluntary cleanup programs (VCP) to incentivize the cleanup of brownfields by owners or developers who did not cause the contamination. Brownfields, or sites contaminated by hazardous substances, are eligible for voluntary cleanup programs if they are not listed on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys National Priority List and are not the subject of a current cleanup action by the Environmental Protection Agency or the Environmental Health Administration.

    When a community has questions about a site, or a site is up for redevelopment, an environmental site assessment is conducted by DOEE to understand the environmental conditions of the property and determine if there are potential threats to the environment or human health. These assessments include reviewing records of the property, visually inspecting the site, sampling and testing the soil and groundwater, and developing plans for cleanup such that the property meets the Districts environmental standards. Because an assessment is initiated by community concern or redevelopment, known brownfields may be more highly concentrated in areas with intense development. This means additional brownfields may exist that have not yet been identified.

    The majority of identified brownfields in the District, both cleaned up and active, are located in Ward 6. Of the active sites, or sites that have not yet completed cleanup, the most sites are located in Wards 6, 7, and 5, in respective order.

    A superfund site is another example of land with soil contamination due to hazardous and improperly managed chemicals. Superfund sites differ from brownfields in that the cleanup of superfund sites involves coordination with the EPA. Often, superfund sites are on the National Priorities List (NPL), a list of the nations worst hazard sites. These sites can include manufacturing facilities, military activity, dry cleaners, and landfills. Common contaminants found at superfund sites include lead, asbestos, dioxin, and radiation.[12] Health effects of these chemicals include cancer, lung disease, neurological effects, and endocrine disruption. The EPA cleans up these contaminated sites or funds local governments to do the cleanup.

    There are 29 superfund sites in D.C., and none of them are on the national priority list, which means the EPA does not include them among the nations most hazardous waste sites. While we do not know the chemicals released for all, we know that 9 of 20 are associated with dry cleaners, one is a gardening center, one site is associated with a mercury spill that happened at Ballou High School in 2003, one is a medical facility, one is the result of a protest march to the EPA headquarters when protestors left drums filled with contaminated water, one is a previous landfill which is now a part of the National Park System, and others have to do with previous land use (such as the munitions plant in Navy Yard).

    We also know the location of the sites that the EPA is actively cleaning up. The majority of superfund sites in the District are located in Wards 4 and 6 (with six sites each), while Wards 3 and 5 have the fewest sites (two each).

    In addition to contaminated soil, residents of the District are also exposed to air pollution: mainly ozone and particulate matter. Air pollution affects residents ability to breathe and can exacerbate asthma prevalence and symptoms in both children and adults. Known harmful chemicals for which levels are tested under Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) include ground-level ozone, particulate matter, nitrogen oxide, sulfur oxide, lead, and carbon monoxide.

    Ward 1 has the highest concentration of ozone, largely driven by vehicle exhaust. Ward 7 has the highest levels of particulate matter (known as PM 2.5).

    Health impacts of these chemicals can include inflammation and irritation of the respiratory tract, leading to coughing and difficulty breathing, acute asthma attacks and other respiratory diseases, and aggravated heart (cardiovascular) diseases. Specifically:

    Air pollution has been connected to mental, neurological, and respiratory health. The Center for Disease Controls (CDC) Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Survey shows that D.C.s child and adult asthma rates of lifetime prevalence are significantly higher than the national averages.[13] When data is disaggregated by race, it is revealed that white children in the District have lifetime rates of 6.5 percent while Black children have asthma rates of 23 percent.[14] Besides having disparate rates of asthma, there are also disparate rates of acute asthma attacks in D.C., resulting in emergency room visits. While there are many causes of asthma including poverty, stress, and other health conditions, neighborhoods with higher percentages of Black residents have more air pollution than neighborhoods with majority white residents.

    There are five main locations where air pollution data is collected by DOEE, located at Takoma Recreation Center, McMillan Reservoir, Hains Point, River Terrace Site, and Anacostia Freeway.[15] Not every site collects the same information, but generally information is collected on ozone, particulate matter, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen dioxide. The District stopped monitoring lead in 2016 because levels were consistently below the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). D.C. levels for all other pollutants have gone down over time and are currently within all NAAQS with the exception of ozone. Nonetheless, even air pollution levels within acceptable safety standards can adversely affect health.

    The largest air pollution challenge in the District is ozone, for which D.C. and surrounding counties in Virginia and Maryland receive a marginal nonattainment designation, meaning we are within 11 parts per billion (ppb) of the standard for which air is safe for sensitive populations such as asthmatics, children, and the elderly. Transportation, especially exhaust from personal motor vehicles, is a leading creator of ground-level ozone.

    The monitoring site at McMillan Reservoir, located near Howard University, had the highest average concentrations of ozone and sulfur dioxide in 2019. This site, in 2019, also had the most days of ozone at dangerous levels (5 days) and particulate matter (PM 2.5) at dangerous levels (2 days). Particulate matter above dangerous levels[16] was also observed at both of Ward 7s monitoring sites for at least one day in 2019. The two sites in Ward 7, located at the Anacostia Freeway and River Terrace, both had higher averages of particulate matter, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen oxide than the other monitoring sites in the District.

    COVID-19 has changed the volume of commuter traffic coming into the District, affecting the amount of air pollution. So far in 2020, there have been no days where the concentration of ozone reached dangerous levels. However, patterns have largely remained the same for differences in averages across sites from 2019 to 2020. The average levels of particulate matter and ozone for 2020 are shown below.

    Air quality is worsened by urban heat islands, as heat and pollution can work in conjunction to make breathing challenging. As previously documented by the D.C. Policy Center, the District has uneven heat distribution, with the city center experiencing the most heat and least vegetation and neighborhoods west of Rock Creek Park having the most trees and coolest temperatures. Increased pollution in the center and east sections of the city, coupled with increased heat from the built environment, worsens air quality for residents and has the potential to trigger acute asthma attacks.[17]

    Water in the District is contaminated by waste released into the Potomac and Anacostia rivers and overflow from the combined sewer and rainwater systems. Bodies of water in the District have been deemed impaired for human and aquatic life due to high levels of bacteria (E. coli), high pH, low levels of dissolved oxygen, and high turbidity (the degree to which the water loses its transparency due to the presence of suspended particulates). There are several permit holders in the District that are allowed to release waste into the water. These sources of contamination are concentrated in the Anacostia River just as air and soil pollution are more concentrated in the southeast portion of the city than the northwest.

    DC Water, the Districts water and sewer authority, collects wastewater in both separate and combined pipes. Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) pipes cover about a third of D.C., draining rainwater and storm overflow into the same sewer pipes that collect liquid from toilets, tubs, and sinks. These CSOs overflow in times of heavy, prolonged rain, letting the excess flow enter directly into the Districts rivers and creeks, namely into the Anacostia River, Rock Creek Park, and Potomac River.[18]

    For small amounts of rainfall, the overflow from CSOs typically lasts less than 24 hours. However, with over an inch of rain, the effects of CSOs on water quality can persist up to three days.[19] CSOs are a concern in the District as they contain harmful bacteria to people in addition to compounds, like nitrogen, that contribute to low dissolved oxygen levels in water: potentially killing fish.

    Rain can thus cause violations of water standards, as fecal coliform bacteria present in sewage mixes with rainwater and flows into Rock Creek, the Potomac River, and the Anacostia River. Due to flow and location of CSOs, the southeast section of the city is exposed to the most water pollution from the sewer system, while Ward 3 is exposed to none.

    Under the Clean Water Act, people and companies are prohibited from polluting in bodies of water. However, National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits can be acquired from the EPA to discharge substances into bodies of water (pursuant to safety standards). In the District, there are currently seven companies with active permits. Pollution in the water can include substances such as radioactive material; sand; and chemical, industrial, and agricultural waste.[20]

    These permit holders include:

    Of the Districts waterways, the Potomac and Anacostia rivers most frequently receive pollution from permit holders in the District (3 current permits each). Most permit holders have been industrial (9 permits), with one permit for wastewater and one for the DC Water and Sewage Authority (Blue Plains). Most of the permits are still active, except for the JFK Center, Navy Yard, Pepco, and the Washington Aqueduct Division.

    The District monitored 36 waterbody segments over a period from January 2015 to June 2019 (2020 reporting period), and found that while water quality is improving, bodies of water in the District are still impaired for human health and aquatic life. This impairment is largely due to high levels of bacteria (E. coli), high pH, low levels of dissolved oxygen, and high turbidity (the degree to which the water loses its transparency due to the presence of suspended particulates).

    In comparison with the Potomac River, the Anacostia River has higher levels of E. coli bacteria and exceeds standards for dissolved oxygen and turbidity. In the Anacostia watershed, Kingman Lake has the highest number of samples of any in the District exceeding turbidity standards, with as many as 43.16 percent of samples not meeting the District standard.

    Rock Creek tributaries exceeded turbidity standards significantly less than Anacostia tributaries, with averages of 4.23 percent and 25.37 percent of samples that did not meet standards, respectively.

    Samples from the Potomac River had higher numbers of exceedances of safety standards for pH levels, although exceedances remained less than 6 percent of samples.[21]

    Wards 4, 5, and 6 collectively have the most environmental pollution in the District in terms of soil and air exposure. In addition, heavy rains divert sewer water into the Potomac and Anacostia rivers which flow to the southeast of the city, and permit holders can potentially release toxic materials into bodies of water that flow to southeast D.C.

    Soil contamination from LUSTS, brownfields, and superfund sites are concentrated in Wards 4, 5, and 6. Additionally, while air monitoring sites in Ward 7 experienced heightened levels of certain chemicals, the monitoring site at McMillian Reservoir (Ward 1) experienced the highest average levels of ground-level ozone in 2019, the only chemical for which D.C. is not within standard limits. As such, the wards in the District with the highest area median income and highest levels of white residents (Ward 3) are the least affected by environmental toxins examined in this report.

    Datasets on Superfund sites, air quality monitors, and water pollution permit holders come from the Environmental Protection Agency. Datasets on leaking underground storage containers and voluntary cleanup sites come from the Department of Energy and the Environment. The shapefile containing the combined sewer overflow system comes from the Office of the Chief Technology Officer.

    Instant Success (and Many Failures) for Seasoned Roll-Forming Crew – ConstructionMagNet.com – Constructionmagnet.com

    - October 20, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    By Dan Perkins

    Our Beginning: Dan Perkins Construction started as a remodeling company in Massachusetts in 1986. A decade later, when I, Dan, and my wife Pam moved to Michigan, I changed the focus of my company to metal roofing. We settled in Ishpeming, Pams hometown. The city is located in the heart of Michigans Upper Peninsula (UP), the northernmost area of the state between Lake Michigan and Lake Superior. The UP holds a third of the states land mass and a mere 3% of its population, yet yields most of its snow accumulation.

    Awed by the effects of 200-300 of snow on the buildings of the UPeverything from car-size ice dams to collapsed roof structures to the spectacle of people coming home from work and shoveling their roofs, I decided to focus my business on metal roofing with the idea that we could slide the loads off of the roofs before they became problematic.

    This was the beginning of an adventure that included instant success and many failures. Our promise of a roof that slid snow was wildly popular and within a year of offering this product, we had 30 employees, slapping down pole barn panels over asphalt roofs as fast as we could cover them. There were some issues. When other contractors saw us taking a big share of the roofing market, a bunch jumped in to compete. But the real challenge came when many of our roofs failed.

    Crew member Nick Constantino carefully aligns a metal panel on a steep-pitch roof.

    Several rooflines converge in a single point, requiring precise measurements and careful planning.

    Growing PainsIt is an eye-opening experience to see what a 10-ton glacier of ice is capable of destroying as it slides down a roof, especially when that roof is 29-gauge pole barn panels. The first things to go are the vent stacks and power masts, which snap like toothpicks or tear right through the eaves. The steel panels on dormers can roll up like the top of a sardine can, skylights can shear right off, leaving living rooms full of sliding snow, and valley panels can tear like paper.

    I will never forget the day I sat across from my banker explaining that I had to borrow about $100,000 to do repairs on my existing roofs. And explaining that I needed more money to go to a metal trade show with my crew to get them some training and to buy roll forming equipment to do these roofs properly. He kind of looked at me funny and said something about my debt-to-equity ratio, but somehow found a way to get us through this awkward stage of our growth. Bottom line is, we fixed our messes. We did not run away from the trade, as our competitors did when the technical challenges of this trade confronted us, and this left us as the only players in the metal roofing industry in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and in a good portion of northeastern Wisconsin.

    In the last 24 years, we have become exceptionally good at on-site metal roofing manufacturing and installation. We have learned how to move stacks to the peak, insulate, and ventilate roof structures to eliminate systemic ice problems, and make a myriad of blind fastened watertight roofing details. We have a solid culture in our crews that take great pride and accountability for our product, and we take incredibly good care of our customers.

    This architectural home required the team to utilize every detail in the foremans arsenal, including one that he had to invent specifically for this job.

    Metal CraftsmanshipAs metal roofing contractors with an on-site roll forming machine, we are both manufacturers and craftsmen. We are not only accountable for the proper installation of the metal roof, but also for the proper fabrication of its components. This means knowing many things most roofers dont need to know, like how to calculate nominal air flow in your ridge venting and how to spot defects in your steel coil (such as wavy-edge, coil set, and micro-cracking in the paint). We have to assume all of the responsibilities that any product manufacturer typically carries, and it takes time to learn these skills. When installing the product that we have manufactured, we are also responsible for our details and their ability to defend the home from water, ice, and snow.

    Over time, we have developed master craftsmen in this trade and they in turn are teaching the next generation of craftsmen what they have learned. Every year we put more emphasis on training so that our foremen can delegate more of the difficult work to crew members. A tear-off and ground clean-up guy is handy when you are doing that kind of work, but when the roof is going on, skilled craftsmen are required.

    A Job in Presque Isle, WisconsinRecently we did a job on a small but highly designed home in Presque Isle, Wisconsin, that inspired us to submit this piece for Metal Roofing Magazine. My foreman, Matt Zumpf, noted that he had to use every detail in his library plus one that he had to invent specifically for this job. Here are some of our standard details that we utilized on this job:

    Author and Owner Dan Perkins of Dan Perkins Construction.

    Crew member Dave Lancour uses snips to create a custom cut.

    Custom WorkOur jobs are very fluid. Everything is made to order. On this specific job, we had four valleys that served as diagonal pitch breaks and fed over the panels below. Zumpf designed a custom detail for this so that the valley was traditional on one side but had a reverse hem on the other side and could be cleated over the panels below. He lined up the panel ribs, which made the panels sit on a 45-degree angle to the plane, yet will allow the snow to shed in a continuous trajectory.

    The beauty of this trade is the versatility and Old World craftsmanship thats possible when the crew develops its skills. We have been doing this work for 24 years now and we think we are good. There is always more to learn and there are always new people to train, and we are proud of our trade and what we represent to the American workforce.

    If You Had Bought Beacon Roofing Supplys (NASDAQ:BECN) Shares Three Years Ago You Would Be Down 35% – Simply Wall St

    - October 20, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    While it may not be enough for some shareholders, we think it is good to see the Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. (NASDAQ:BECN) share price up 29% in a single quarter. But that doesnt change the fact that the returns over the last three years have been less than pleasing. In fact, the share price is down 35% in the last three years, falling well short of the market return.

    View our latest analysis for Beacon Roofing Supply

    To paraphrase Benjamin Graham: Over the short term the market is a voting machine, but over the long term its a weighing machine. By comparing earnings per share (EPS) and share price changes over time, we can get a feel for how investor attitudes to a company have morphed over time.

    Beacon Roofing Supply has made a profit in the past. However, it made a loss in the last twelve months, suggesting profit may be an unreliable metric at this stage. Other metrics might give us a better handle on how its value is changing over time.

    We note that, in three years, revenue has actually grown at a 18% annual rate, so that doesnt seem to be a reason to sell shares. Its probably worth investigating Beacon Roofing Supply further; while we may be missing something on this analysis, there might also be an opportunity.

    You can see below how earnings and revenue have changed over time (discover the exact values by clicking on the image).

    We like that insiders have been buying shares in the last twelve months. Having said that, most people consider earnings and revenue growth trends to be a more meaningful guide to the business. You can see what analysts are predicting for Beacon Roofing Supply in this interactive graph of future profit estimates.

    Beacon Roofing Supply shareholders gained a total return of 7.7% during the year. Unfortunately this falls short of the market return. The silver lining is that the gain was actually better than the average annual return of 0.2% per year over five year. It is possible that returns will improve along with the business fundamentals. While it is well worth considering the different impacts that market conditions can have on the share price, there are other factors that are even more important. Consider for instance, the ever-present spectre of investment risk. Weve identified 2 warning signs with Beacon Roofing Supply (at least 1 which is a bit unpleasant) , and understanding them should be part of your investment process.

    There are plenty of other companies that have insiders buying up shares. You probably do not want to miss this free list of growing companies that insiders are buying.

    Vermeer partners with Hopkins Roofing for roof decal on Plant 7 – Oskaloosa Herald

    - October 20, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    PELLA Recently, Vermeer Corporation and Hopkins Roofing partnered to install a 46-foot-tall and 224-foot-long Vermeer logo on the roof of the expanded Plant 7 facility at the Vermeer Pella campus.

    Plant 7 was formally announced back in July of 2019 at the one-year anniversary of the July 2018 tornado. The new facility is quickly coming to life where Plants 5 and 6 once stood. Nearly 500,000 square feet of manufacturing and office space will expand beyond the original manufacturing footprint that took up just less than 400,000 square feet of this area. The facility is expected to be complete by the end of 2020 with team members moving in through early 2021.

    Now, the massive decal welcomes any who fly over the manufacturer in Pella.

    I am very proud to have the Vermeer name displayed on Plant 7, stated Vermeer President and CEO Jason Andringa. My grandfather was a pilot, many members of the Vermeer family have held their pilots license, and flying is something I do frequently, both personally and for Vermeer. We are proud of this new facility and the way we are coming back stronger than ever. I know my grandfather would be proud to fly over this world class manufacturing facility and see the Vermeer name and the work that the Vermeer name represents. Thank you to our partners at Hopkins Roofing for making this project a reality. We are grateful to be a part of a community filled with innovative companies such as Hopkins Roofing.

    In addition to their work on the roof of Plant 7, Hopkins Roofing installed metal siding around the outside of the facility and main entrances. They also installed drainage along the perimeter of the building and metal trims on the offices inside the building.

    We are so grateful for Vermeer and the leadership they provide in our community, stated Hopkins CEO Roger DeWaard. Our work on the Plant 7 facility is a source of pride for every member of our team. Pella is a better place because of the Vermeer family, and we are honored to be one of their partners.
