Heidi J. Ellsworth, RCS Partner, welcomed Zach Stopyro and AC Galeon of DaVinci Roofscapes to RoofersCoffeeShop's May 2020 Read Listen Watch (RLW) presentation on wildfires and roofing. With wildfires growing every year, it is more important than ever to choose roofing products that can help deter fire. This RLW reviews the importance of product testing while helping roofing contractors understand which testing is critical for product performance. Stopyro explains the different types of fire testing and how the results determine not only the type of roofing but the necessary roofing systems that can mean the difference between total loss and saving structures.
