Iraqi Homeowner To Wait A While
Before Re-Shingling Roof
BAGHDAD—Homeowner Aftab Shamoun, 34, announced Monday that he will likely
wait "just a little while" before moving ahead with plans to re-shingle the
roof of his Baghdad home. "Now may not be the best time to put on those nice
new ceramic shingles," said Shamoun, whose roof was damaged in a wind storm
last November. "Heck, I've been putting it off for so long, a few more
months won't hurt." Despite putting the shingling project on the back
burner, Shamoun said he plans to spend next weekend insulating his front
windows with energy-efficient plywood boards.
