NOW IS THE TIME TO LOOK AFTER
Your Roofs and Spouting
This is a good time to look after your roofs and spouting. "A stitch in time
saves nine" is an old and true saying. By having them attended to at once you
may save additional expense later, because when a roof, gutter or spout starts
to leak, it deteriorates rapidly. Mechanics can work to the best of advantage
when the weather is favorable.
