During times of crisis, construction workers are more vital than ever. After the recent hurricanes, roofing has become a critical part of rebuilding and protecting numerous homes and businesses. Skilled tradespeople are out there every day, helping communities to recover and ensuring structures are secure for the future. One of those making a real difference is Michael Moore, a 2022 graduate of the Rising Stars Program and commercial roofing technician at @Tremco Roofing and Building Maintenance’s WTI division. He’s been hard at work in Florida, repairing storm damage and helping to restore a sense of normalcy. #RisingStars #RoofingTechnician #ConstructionCareers
