Retex Habitat Volunteer Day – April 2023
Katelyn Lewis • April 24, 2023
On Friday, the Retex team headed over to Veranda Street do something completely foreign to us... roofing and siding! 🤪🤣
We installed the decking and underlayment for the porch on this new-construction build, and set up the siding for the next volunteer group to join Richmond’s Habitat for Humanity onsite.
Habitat has two new-construction homes underway next door to each other, and it was an extra-special day as it was part of their Volunteer Appreciation Week, so we got free Krispy Kremes to sweeten an already great day.
We love our monthly volunteer days, especially with our Habitat friends, as we give back to our local community. Meanwhile, if you’re a homeowner in need of help with your home’s exteriors, give us a call – 804-258-6300 – to schedule an appointment today.
We will be closed on Friday, July 4, and Saturday, July 5, in observance of the holiday.
Online pricing calculators and AI tools are great for ballpark numbers, but they don’t know the local labor market and specific window options for your home.
Scott Gibson serves on our Repair Team Bravo. Scott works with Patrick every day to repair shingle roofs and repoint chimneys and brick for our customers. Scott’s been with RETEX since August 2023, and this year he and Patrick have headed our same-day repair services.
It depends. Read the scenarios in which we recommend homeowners invest in gutter guards for their homes.
Today’s Finished Roof Friday comes with a homeowner tip: Always check your home exterior contractor’s license before moving forward with any work or deposit.
Unfortunately there are folks out there more concerned with a quick sale than with helping you with your home exteriors.
This Midlothian homeowner originally reached out to Retex in October 2023 for a roof repair for a leak in her kitchen as well as a roof replacement estimate. RETEX’s Andy Connor met with her, gave her both quotes, and we repaired her roof. She reached back out to Andy in March 2024, ready to move forward with RETEX on replacing her roof.
If your siding is 20+ years old, it’s worth getting a pro to assess it, even if it looks okay. Hidden issues can lurk beneath the surface.
Bryan Rizo serves on our Repair Team Alpha. Alongside Julio, Bryan repairs shingle roofs and installs small flat TPO roofs on homes across Richmond and Fredericksburg. He’s been with RETEX for three years, and we’re blessed to have him on board.
Montpelier homeowner Patrick Fadden reached out to RETEX in January for an estimate for replacing his home's roof and windows.
