Bert from Grand Island has had his fair share of work done by William C. Rott & Son, including roofing, gutters, and siding — but what he’s loved the most are his new windows. Bert says, “When people come into the house, they go crazy over the windows!”
We’ve had some hot summer nights and days! What do you do to stay cool? To get through? For most of us the answer is, stay in some air conditioning, at home, work, or in the car.
Well, what if your job was to be outside all day long? Facing those conditions head on and often with increased heat levels because of dark surfaces and no shade? Yikes!
While this year’s roofing season has been shortened, we’ve been working hard to help as many WNY homeowners as possible! As we moved through the phases in WNY, we’ve been incredibly thankful to get back into the swing of things and resume what we do best.
Over the past few weeks, we’ve helped repair roofs, install new gutters, put on new siding, and even rebuild some vintage posts beneath a flat roof. Let’s take a look at a few projects we’ve been up to…
Well, my dad, Bill Rott has done it again!
He got a call a week ago from his sister-in-law. She works for a dry cleaner.
She said her employer was looking to clean out the stockpile coats that were left unclaimed, and from donation drives.
I’d like to touch base with all of you about what’s going on in our world and our nation, to let you know what we’re up to, and how this might impact you, our customer. The short story is, we are all experiencing a time of uncertainty and concern that is made worse by all of the conflicting messages.
So, I know everyone is trying to do what they should. Whether that be social distancing, wearing masks, washing their hands, doing what they can, helping their family and those with health conditions. It’s terrific to see people do all of this (and more) including shopping for those in need who have to shelter in place.
Many are still called to do the essential things. Whether it’s a health care worker, or other essential services such as food supply, delivery, electric, gas, plumbing, water and so many others.
When my father talks about when he was a young boy, those experiences often surprise me.
One of his stories, more often told, was of his uncle Herb Rott. Uncle Herb was his dad’s younger brother who fought and was wounded, in World War II. Some of the details of that were not known until after Uncle Herb’s death, when his wife, Helen, invited my dad and his younger brother Jerry to come to visit and receive the medals, and other things left by her husband.
It was only then, that the missing pieces of the puzzle were discovered, and fit together, giving new revelation, and garnering renewed respect and admiration for this favorite uncle.
We aren’t doctors or nurses, or healthcare professionals, or farmers, or truckers, or any of
the others that bring life and life-giving answers to you. But we would like to offer what we
can.
Donna and Mike had their roof done by William C. Rott and when their window needed replacing they knew just who to call!
It may be cold out there, but our team has been outside working hard all winter long! We’ve been helping shield homes all around Western New York.
Installing new siding, roofing, or even just a soffit can transform a home in so many ways—not only from a protection standpoint but aesthetically as well. Some of our siding jobs especially have made the home look brand new!
Let’s take a look at some of the recent projects we’ve been up to so far this winter…
