    In this episode of Stories from the Roof, Megan Ellsworth sits down with Riley Duer, Lori Duer and Jake Viggers of The Duerson Corporation and Ryan Kinneberg of ACGI Consulting, to talk about their passion for roofing. The Duerson Corporation crew shares how they got started in the roofing industry, the mentors who shaped them, and the lessons they've carried through decades of experience. They reflect on what they might have done differently, what they're most proud of, and what continues to motivate them each day on the job. When a severe hailstorm tore through Grinnell, Iowa, damaging the massive 135,000-square-foot roof of Grinnell Mutual Reinsurance, the call for help went out fast, and Duerson Corporation answered even faster. Their team was immediately on-site, tarping the roof and laying the foundation for what would become the Duro-Last® 2024 Project of the Year.
