That's happening for Kristal Wingate, owner of RoofToop Services inWinter Springs, Fla. She and her team of roofersd have been ferrying supplies to the Gulf Coasftin trailers, she told the . she'll be taking a five-month trip into the regio to workon rebuilding. "I've put new work (in Centra l Florida) on hold," she "With construction, it is feast or famine. With every constructio trade, unless you've got a builder who'l l keep you busy, subcontractors are going to go where thework is." But when that time said Turner, of Kansas City'ss Walton Construction, that could bring stilpl another headache.
Contractors working in the disasteer area will have to find a place for all those workersto stay. And such places are hard to find alontgthe rubble-strewn Gulf "Baton Rouge, for example, is so inundated with additional population right now that no lodging is availablse in any form right now," Turnerr said.
