    CLERMONT, Fla – A Lake County U.S. Army veteran is receiving a home makeover as part of a project designed to help veterans in need.

    On Tuesday, work began to replace the roof of Michael Austine’s home in Clermont.

    Austine has lived in the home since 2010 and said the roof was in good shape until the last few years, when it started leaking and got worse.

    “The situation was chaotic. The roof on the other side was leaking into one of the bedrooms, and eventually, the wet sheetrock gave way and collapsed,” Austine explained.

    Austine signed up for and was accepted into Habitat for Humanity’s home repair program. This program worked in collaboration with Janney Roofing as part of the Owens Corning Roof Deployment Project.

    “We’re truly honored to be involved in this initiative and to have the opportunity to support the community,” said Jereme Cadorette, President of Janney Roofing. “It holds great significance for our company and employees, especially when it’s about a veteran.”

    According to Owens Corning, nearly 700 veterans have benefited from the Roof Deployment project since 2016.

    The plan for Austine’s home included a new roof, remodeled kitchen, new flooring, and window replacements.

    “I keep trying to picture how it will look when it’s finished, and I can’t believe it,” Austine said. “Now I have a space where everyone can gather, come over for dinner, enjoy a barbecue, and do things like that.”

    The roof replacement is expected to be finished by Wednesday, and work on the interior of the home should be completed before the end of the month.
