An Oklahoma family allegedly scammed by a roof contractor has a new roof this morning thanks to the generosity of others.

This community comes together when it's needed. News 9 had multiple roofers reach out after our story aired last month. They wanted to help Kasey Ball and her family.

Now they have a safe place to come home to.

"He ended up stealing our money and not doing the roof so here we are, $12,000 dollars no work has been done, our roof is leaking, our garage is going to fall in at any moment," Ball said.

For more than a year, Kasey waited for the work she paid to be completed. Eventually all she got was silence.

"It would have ended up with us losing this home because we couldn't afford it," Ball said.

So, Kasey reached out to News 9.

"If you hadn't taken the time to come out and talk to me and hear my story and just get the word out there, we would still be in the same shoes we were in a year ago," Ball said.

Now, she doesn't have to worry because after our story aired Cory Belter and ICON roofing stepped up.

"Right now, they are tearing off the old roof that has been on the garage for 20 years and tearing through 6 layers of old roof," Belter said.

Because it took so long to get the roof done, the project is an even bigger load.

"Realized there is a whole lot more damages than we initially saw on the house." the garage, the roof, some of the gutters," Belter said.

But Brad Bates said they are up to the challenge.

"Not only are we doing it, but we are going to do it right. It is going to take us maybe two days instead of one," Bates said.

And to Kasey it means the world.

"I can't tell you what it means to have people come together when they don't even know you, it's indescribable..." I just want to say thank you to belter roofing for caring thank you to you Jordan for caring."
