Thh Roof Locked Aqoinst
Wind and Weather
/
If your roof has been giving you trouble or is beginning to look
shabby, have it covered with Careylok shingles. These shingles are
espe-ially resigned to sav - money on labor and materials and at the
same time give you a good-looking, weather-tight roof.
It’s easy to re-roof with Careyloks. Just lay them right over your
old roof — a copper anchor holds them down snugly — shutting out
the wind, rain and snow. The double roof makes your home warmer
in winter and cooler in summer.
Remember. Careylok shingles are made by a Company with more
than years'experience in manufacturing good roofing material.
CoS in and see these attractive Careylok shingles and let us
tell you how much you can save by using them to re-roof your home.
