The roofing industry isn't just feeling economic pressure, it's being reshaped by it. In this live Read Listen Watch®, Heidi J. Ellsworth sits down LIVE from the NRCA midyear meetings with Fred Castonguay of Reworked.ai, Wendy Marvin of Matrix Roof & Home and Dean Jagusch of Wagner Roofing to dig into what it really takes to lead in a market defined by uncertainty, shifting customer behavior and longer, more hesitant buying cycles.

With insights from Fred, the conversation explores how technology and AI are helping contractors cut through the noise, respond faster and make smarter decisions in real time.
