Home Depot Out of Roofing and Siding Businesses

Home Depot—America’s best-known home improvement retailer—is getting out of the roofing business nationwide, according to NBC 6 in Florida. Citing delays in service due to a “shortage in materials and labor,” the company is also discontinuing installation of insulation, siding, and gutters. A spokesman for Home Depot said the company will focus on programs “where we can deliver the best customer experience. We sincerely apologize for [any] delays [in roofing].”
