Close-up

To kick off its inaugural Roofs for the Red, White and Blue program, Burns and Scalo Roofing Co., Pittsburgh, provided a new roof system to a local veteran.

Burns and Scalo staff were inspired by a veteran who enlisted in the U.S. Navy after graduating high school in 1989. The veteran served aboard the USS Saratoga CV-60, an aircraft carrier, and was part of the first Operation Desert Shield mission team. He subsequently served his country for 22 years.

The Burns and Scalo team recognized the urgent state of the veteran’s roof and immediately replaced the roof system before impending poor weather.
