Is there anyone in Macomb County who could use a new roof — for free?

Published by Macomb Daily: Sunday, May 02, 2010

Remember that marvelous contest last year offering one lucky homeowner the chance to win a free roof? It's on again, only so far there are no nominees! Surely there is someone out there who knows of an individual, family, neighbor, friend, uncle, single mother, young couple, grandparents who are in need of a new roof.

The "No Roof Left Behind" contest was launched by Ridgecon Construction in Shelby Township. Last summer when people should have been making roof repairs, the owners of Ridgecon, Jay and his brother Matt Elie, noticed that there was an increasing number of blue tarps nailed to people's roofs. As roofers, they knew it was a sign of poor times. Everyone was so strapped for cash the best they could do was cover the problem with a tarp.

Those images struck a nerve with the brothers, who proceeded to organize this contest offering one lucky homeowner the chance to win a free roof. They also hoped their initiative would start a ripple that would lead to a wave of goodwill. The contest had one stipulation: A deserving person could not apply for a free roof for him or herself, but had to be nominated by someone.

The response was heartwarming.

Last year's winners, Debbie and Dave Hill of Sterling Heights, were nominated by the neighbor who lives across the street from them… (click for full story)

Ridgecon recieves prestigious Training Excellence Award. 

Ridgecon, with the support of other community leaders, installed a new CertainTeed roof system on the Hill home...on the house!

Ridgecon extends a hearty “Thank you!” to all who voted. We don’t want to forget about the two other finalists: Nora and Kelli. Both of them could still benefit from the support of our community. Did you know… over 13,000 votes were cast in the No Roof Left Behind initiative? Just imagine: if each voter were to contribute a single dollar, both Nora and Kelli could have their roofs replaced as well. If any in the community would like to step up and spearhead this project, the Ridgecon family would be happy to help in any way we can.

News is spreading fast.  Read about nice family in St. Clair Shores.
