Stonewater & Purple Heart Homes Help Tyler Veteran Get New Roof

Stonewater Roofing recently teamed up with Purple Heart Homes to help a disabled veteran in Tyler get a new roof.

Kelly Fromm served as a counterintelligence agent in the military for nearly 14 years, but was forced into retirement in 2001 after sustaining severe injuries. “I broke both my legs and shattered my back,” he said. During surgery, doctors discovered that Fromm had a neurodegenerative disease. “That ended by career abruptly.”

The veteran relocated to Tyler in 2020, and his new home fell victim to a tornado just two years later. “What brought attention to the roof was the last storm we had here,” Fromm explained. “You can see where the tornado came right through our property. It went from the front, all the way down, and took all these big, giant trees out that you see these stumps.”

“The house shook,” Fromm continued, but his insurance company claimed that his home was not damaged by the tornado. “They told me that the house shaking was not from the wind storm.” The company stated that old age was to blame and refused to cover the cost of repairs.

Fromm was unable to afford the cost of a new roof, so he reached out to Purple Heart Homes, a national nonprofit that offers safe housing solutions to disabled veterans. To date, Purple Heart Homes as completed more than 1,000 projects. They were the ones who connected Fromm with Stonewater Roofing. “Next thing you know, you guys are doing the roof on the house,” he said.

“Your crew is very professional,” Fromm added.

Kelly Fromm & Stonewater Roofing

A look at the final product after disabled veteran Kelly Fromm received a new roof on his Tyler home with help from Purple Heart Homes and Stonewater Roofing.

Stonewater Roofing, in turn, partnered with GAF and ABC Supply to not only replace, but upgrade Fromm’s old roof. Parts of the home were redecked and the disabled veteran received Timberline ArmorShield II impact resistant shingles. These are protected from wind and algae, and able to withstand the toughest hail tests.

ABC Supply provided the new decking. “Part of this house was built in 1957, so the decking on that side has been compromised,” explained Stonewater Roofing project manager Dusty Phillips. “We are going to be pulling it off and redecking it.”

Meanwhile, GAF donated many of the shingles used in this project. “It’s very significant,” Fromm said. “It shows their respect for the veteran community and to the Purple Heart Homes mission to help veterans like myself.”

When the project was finished, Fromm was very grateful to have Purple Heart Homes on his side, along with Stonewater Roofing and their partners. “They couldn’t do it without companies like Stonewater Roofing and GAF that support the cause,” he said.

Don’t Let Hidden Hail Damage Ruin Your Property’s Roof

You might think that your roof looks fine, but it could be the victim of hidden hail damage. After all, more than 30 severe storms dropped one-inch hail or larger across DFW and East Texas, and that’s just since the beginning of this year. This is large enough to cause some serious roofing problems, and your property likely got hit.

“Oftentimes, you can’t see damage from the ground,” explained Stonewater Roofing senior sales representative Anayo Onyi, “and if you do see anything that looks like a disturbance, you can’t really identify it without being up on the roof.” So, there is only one sure way to make sure that hidden hail damage doesn’t become a major problem.

“Your next step is to have a qualified professional — Stonewater Roofing — come up and inspect the damage for you,” Onyi said.

Stonewater Roofing’s experts provide a complete health check of your property. “We look for primary and collateral damage. So, primary damage would be to the shingles themselves. Collateral damage is to soft metals, window screens, gutters and things like that,” Onyi said. “All that kind of just helps to paint a picture of what actually occurred and the extent of the damage.”

Inspecting your roof yourself is not recommended. First, you are likely not trained in how to spot damage. But most importantly, it can be very dangerous if you were to slip and fall. “It’s kind of a waste of time, unnecessary risk,” Onyi stated. “It’s best to have somebody that does that day in, day out come and give you a professional inspection.”

In just 15 minutes, you get the peace of mind that comes with knowing the status of your roof, and you’ll know what the next step is to staying protected. “If you don’t have any storm damage, great,” Onyi added. “But if there’s a potential issue that might cause a leak later down the line, then I’m going to point that out to you.”

Warranty Options Can Extend The Life Of Your New Roof

Replacing your roof is an important purchase, so it’s equally important that you understand roof financing and get an outstanding warranty to ensure that you stay protected for many years into the future. While the standard warranties that come with our GAF roofing products are good, there are even better options available to customers, ones that can help extend the life of your new roof.

Stonewater Roofing gladly offers the System Plus, Silver Pledge and Golden Pledge warranties. “They’re just enhanced warranties on top of the ones that we already have, that you already get,” explained Longview office manager Kelli Johnson. Each one can be transferred a single time with no fee.

“All three of them cover material defects for 50 years,” Johnson continued. The basic shingle and accessory warranty only covers materials for 10 years. That’s a huge difference in how much peace of mind you get from your newly installed roof, even from just upgrading to System Plus.

However, the System Plus warranty, like the standard one, does not cover any workmanship defects. “The Silver Pledge warranty covers workmanship defects for 10 years,” Johnson added, “and the Golden Pledge warranty covers workmanship defects for 25 years.”

The Golden Pledge plan also adds an additional one-year labor warranty through Stonewater Roofing. Combined, this makes the Golden Pledge warranty an amazing option for customers. “It’s just an all-around really good warranty,” said Johnson.

Few roofing companies can keep you this protected. “We can actually offer these warranties through Stonewater Roofing because we are Master Elite through GAF,” Johnson noted. “There’s only two percent of roofing companies in the United States that are able to offer these warranties.”

That is just one great reason to trust Stonewater Roofing with your roofing needs. Schedule a free roof damage assessment today!

3 Great Reasons To Hire A Local Roofing Contractor

No matter where you are located, you always want to hire a local roofing contractor to help you with your roofing needs. It might sound like a simple idea, but there are many roofers who chase storms around the country in search of business. Selecting one of these contractors can be dangerous.

Here are three great reasons to stay local when trusting a roofing contractor with your property.

1. We can be verified by the community.

Stonewater Roofing is licensed in both Texas and Louisiana. We are members of several local organizations and active in local communities. “We’ve got a lot of references locally,” explained Kurtis Galyen, commercial sales executive with Stonewater Roofing. “We can definitely speak to the community and what jobs we’ve done in the community, how many jobs we’ve done in a certain area.”

Not only that, but we are also very proud of the charitable work that we have done within our communities, such as helping local teachers get necessary supplies for the classrooms, or helping local students achieve their dreams.

Traveling roofers might not be properly licensed and probably have no interest in seeing the community flourish. However, local roofing contractors can be trusted to be knowledgeable and invested in you and your neighborhood’s well-being. “Our credentials are easily validated,” Galyen added.

2. We respond quickly.

Stonewater Roofing operates brick-and-mortar offices in Tyler, Longview and the DFW area. When you choose Stonewater, you can be sure that help is always available, no matter when a powerful storm strikes. “We’ve been called out all times of the day, on the weekends, middle of the night,” said Galyen.

A traveling roofer might be hundreds of miles away when you need help.

Local roofing contractors are always nearby and ready to assist in the event of an emergency. “We can come out on site instantly with some tarps and some materials to minimize the damage that’s caused by a storm,” Galyen said. That is a peace of mind that you can only find when you pick local.

3. Your neighbors love us.

Stonewater Roofing humbly asks all customers to leave an honest review on Google (Tyler, Longview, Bedford), Facebook and the Better Business Bureau‘s website. We have earned more than 500 overwhelmingly positive reviews from customers, all local to the communities in which we serve.

These reviews prove that Stonewater Roofing is providing quality workmanship and outstanding customer service. It’s not just us saying this — our customers agree.

“You can go online and take a look at those,” Galyen stated. You might even find someone from your very own neighborhood. The traveling roofer likely isn’t collecting reviews from your neighbors, because they are not as committed to helping the community as we are.
