This opportunity is one that is attractive to contractors as well as to home owners, for the Johns-Manville plan will finance the users of its products, enabling the contractor to have a cash job on his hands, paid for on completion, and it affords during the winter a good chance to keep busy. This is a simple business plan for financing this sort of work for the winter, with the aim of keeping work moving, and of supplying home owners the means for doing their reroofing and repairs at this favor able time.
