Lawmaker Wants Stiffer Penalties for Rogue Roofing Companies in Tulsa, Oklahoma

"The tornadoes and storms that ravaged some parts of Oklahoma last May brought not only debris and flooding to the state, but an influx of erring roofers as well. This double whammy only strengthened the resolve of lawmaker Mark McBride to safeguard future homeowners needing the help of legitimate roofing companies in Tulsa and other Oklahoma cities. He believes a bond of $30,000, among others, will keep builders on the line. McBride is not convinced that existing laws in Oklahoma are enough to guard against unscrupulous roofing business owners. So far, the so-called “Sooner State” has legislation for mandatory registration of building companies with a state agency. Before they can offer roof repair or replacement services, firms are also obliged to secure a registration number from the Oklahoma Construction Industries Board."
