On September 19th, Brian Covington, Chris Lemmon, and Scott Hoops went on a networking fishing trip with Dewalt and Triangle Fastener. The guys may have struggled to make some catches, but they did see some salmon!
On September 4th, Josh Wack, Kathleen Wack, Becky Hurley, and Jim Hurley attended the Wheeling Symphony Orchestra’s annual Music Under the Stars concert. Kalkreuth was happy to be the presenting sponsor and to have a part in providing an enjoyable evening of free entertainment! The concert celebrated The Beatles and one of their most influential albums, Abbey Road.
This month’s featured foreman is Yancey Clark with KRSM’s West Virginia division. Yancey has been with Kalkreuth since 1992, his first project was Union Local High School, back when Kalkreuth did not have PMs! His most recent project was the OSU Dublin Wexner Medical Center RAF, which Brian Humphrey started and Yancey finished. Yancey is now working on the Royal Canin – Project Ace with project managers John Sberna and Chase Harvey.
Yancey has 30 years of experience in the sheet metal industry and has worked on several high-profile projects during his time with Kalkreuth. He noted a few of his most notable projects, including Fletcher Allen hospital in Burlington, Vermont, and Temple Tifereth in Cleveland, Ohio. Temple Tifereth is a unique project because KRSM installed 7,500 square feet of ISCOM SpA’s Riverclack standing seam roof system. The system was manufactured in and shipped from Pescantina, Italy, leaving the Temple as the only building with these panels in the United States.
“Working for Kalkreuth has been a very rewarding experience and has given me a good steady career for 30 years.”
Yancey lives in Fredericktown, Ohio, with his wife Kelly and has two kids, Jacob and Noah. Noah just so happens to be Yancey’s right-hand man in the field! His wife and kids are his biggest supporters and he couldn’t do his job without them!
We are so proud to have Yancey as part of the Kalkreuth Roofing and Sheet Metal family and sincerely appreciate his continuous hard work and dedication these past 30 years!

Kalkreuth Roofing Charities held its annual Kalkreuth Amateur Golf Championship (KAGC) on July 23rd & 24th at Oglebay Resort’s Speidel Golf Club in Wheeling, WV. This premier tournament hosted just under 200 golfers from the tri-state area. Along with the KAGC, Kalkreuth hosted the 7th annual Welcome Dinner and Kalkreuth Vendor Invitational (KVI) on August 4th & 5th to thank the 33 partners who sponsored the KAGC. After the KVI, Kalkreuth presented the final proceeds to the Easterseals Rehabilitation Center, whose work is to create solutions that change the lives of children and adults with disabilities or other needs and their families. KRSM is proud to know our donation of $60,020 will go a long way to help support the organization’s efforts.
Congratulations to Jacob Nickell, son of Kalkreuth’s VP of Finance, Wes Nickell, on capturing first place in the 2022 Kalkreuth Amateur Golf Championship! Thank you to all who participated and sponsored this fantastic event that benefits Easterseals Rehabilitation Center!
On Saturday, July 16th Eric Haverty received his FAA Remote Pilot Certificate.
“The certification allows me to fly a drone for commercial use. We will use the drone to collect safe and cost-effective photos and videos on all our prospective and current projects. We will also be able to use the drone to create 3-D models, collect field measurements on existing structures, and conduct thermal scans of roof systems to provide information on water infiltration.”
