Builders in Soroti district have been encouraged to always consult professional engineers and
carpenters if they wish to have long lasting roofs.
The concern was made by Denis Ocung, the senior district Engineer Soroti district who also doubles
as the vice chairperson of Uganda Institutions of the professional Enginneers for Teso and Karamoja
Regions during a brief exclusive interview with our reporter.
Ocung noted that sometimes the roofing of most houses in Teso don’t last long because the builders
have atendency of going to purchase their own roofing without consulting from the technical
expertise.
Meanwhile, George Arodi the Executive director Uganda Baati also recommends any builder to firstseek for the advice from the installer to ensure the quality and durability of the product since they
have experience with all products.
