Fire Destroys Smith County Business

SMITH COUNTY — A Smith County business is a total loss following a weekend fire. The blaze at Estes Roofing Company, which is located on Farm Road 2493, was reported around 7:45 Saturday night. The cause remains under investigation, though a storm-related power surge is suspected. No injuries were reported. Owner Danny Estes tells KETK, “Thank God there wasn’t anybody here, so nobody got hurt, and you know, it’s just gonna delay us a little bit. We’re gonna move right over to the next office next door. We’re just gonna move over and keep going.”
