Roofing contractors in New Orleans are telling homeowners with storm-damaged roofs that repairs are going to be delayed and expensive.
When Hurricane Ida tore through the area just over a week ago, contractors were already dealing with severe shortages of both labor and supplies.

Lake Charles, about 200 miles west of New Orleans, was torn up by Hurricane Laura a year ago and still hasn't finished recovering from the storm damage.
