👉Things to Do This Week

IN PARTNERSHIP WITH

Good morning, Boerne. This is The Boerne Life, the newsletter that has a joke for you:

What’s the name of the world’s shortest horror story?

Monday.

We don’t actually believe that… but it’s kind of funny. 😁

This week, there’s a lot to do, and we’ve curated the best of it all in one place. Let’s take a look! 👇

BEAT THE TEXAS HEAT WITH A METAL ROOF

Tile Off, Metal On — Just in Time for a Texas Summer

May turned hot quick, so now’s the time to think about how your home handles high temps. Wilson Roofing and Renovations just finished removing a tile roof and replacing it with an energy-efficient metal one — and the results speak for themselves.

So, what makes a metal roof more efficient? It reflects solar heat instead of absorbing it, helping reduce indoor temperatures and easing the load on your A/C system. That means lower energy bills and a cooler home, even during peak summer heat.

Wilson customizes each roof by panel, width, profile, and color to match your home’s look while boosting performance. And with free consultations, it’s easy to find out if a metal roof is right for you.

We made the switch to a metal roof, and we’re so glad we did!
