Raising Roofs – Builders for Habitat – Home Repair
Raising Roofs is a partnership of Habitat and the Greater Greensboro Builders Association. Since 2003, hundreds of builders,
suppliers and subcontractors have built 32 homes in three different one-week builds.
This year’s event – October 9-13, 2006 – broke new ground by adding Habitat’s Home Repair projects to the effort. Since the Home Repair
program began in 2004, the team has made essential repairs resulting in warmer, safer and drier homes for nearly 50 low-income
families in Greensboro.
DLM Builders staff worked with a partially disabled homeowner to repair and renovate her bath, adding a low-curb shower enclosure
and grab bars, and improving access for use with her walker. Home Repair projects continue throughout the year.
