Marquette County Habitat for Humanity’s newest home builds in Ishpeming will both be getting a free roof, thanks to local contractor Rainy Creek Construction and GAF, one of the country’s largest roof manufacturers. Rainy Creek, a GAF Master Elite Contractor, will be donating their labor while GAF donates the materials. The roof installation is scheduled to begin Monday, August 12th at 260 Silver St and 265 Marble St, Ishpeming.
With the continuing rise of material costs, donations like these are critical in keeping new construction costs affordable for Habitat’s new homes and their Partner Families. Each adult in a participating Partner Family has to put in 250 hours of sweat equity, or invested time, into the project and upon completion of the home the family is set up with an affordable mortgage.
Marquette County Habitat for Humanity would like to thank Rainy Creek Construction and GAF for this generous donation. If you are interested in helping with affordable housing in our community, contact the main office for opportunities to volunteer or donate at (906) 228-3578
