Top May Stories: Beautiful Rooftops, Relationships and People in the Industry

By Karen L. Edwards, RCS Editor.

Here’s what’s trending on RoofersCoffeeShop® this past month.

May 2020 still had a small focus on the COVID-19 pandemic, but our visitors showed that they were clearly ready to move on to other things in roofing. We always love learning the stories of the people that work in the roofing industry and that was evident with the interest in our number 5 story on Sutter Roofing’s Paula Laza-Moreno on how roofing chose her for a career.

Next was our recap of April’s top stories. It was certainly a crazy month as we all had to rapidly adjust to changing conditions in our businesses and on our jobsites. Following closely was our article about how distributor relationships can be essential for your business – relationships that quickly became more important as we continue to adapt.

SRS Distribution’s coloring contest drew a lot of interest as I think we all were looking for a feel-good story that involves crayons, children and prizes!

May’s most-read article featured stunning workmanship atop a Miami hotel to mask the ventilation system.  If you only read one of our top stories this month, that should be the one you choose. It is rooftop artwork at its best.
