Are there any "blue" roofing contractors in the Appleton area?

I really want to hire a residential roofing company with Democratic leanings- the owner, the company, whatever. Also, one that hires locally and doesn't subcontract to out of state crews. Am I asking for too much? Are all contractors Right Wingers???

One of the biggest roofing companies in the area is Reid Ribble's family business...

I just had my roof redone by my neighbor's roofing company. I think you'll have trouble finding a firm that doesn't use at least some out of state workers, but the crew chief lives in Appleton also. I liked the fact that the owner himself, would come on site to make sure things were going smoothly (of course, he just had to walk around the corner to get to my house). Once again, I don't know what his political leanings are, but I was happy with the work and their ability to work with the insurance company.

PM me if interested.

Our roofing company is run by Liberals and veterans and proud of it.
We do not have out of state crews or salesmen and never will. Why so many people have such a bad outlook on roofing companies has to do with the fucking media.
We are located in Madison Wi. so its a little to far away to bid your job, just wanted you to know that not all roofing companies are republicans.
