Description of Project:

Universal Coatings attended the job walk for this building and found the specified roofing system to be unsuitable based on the existing roof and needs of the owner. After some discussion, we were able to refer the owner to a quality roofing system that met the Class A fire rating requirement and provided an insulation value of R-13.

After competitively bidding the project, we were able to secure the job with a superior system and warranty. The roof was 31,000 square feet with 34 skylights scattered throughout that were replaced with new OSHA-compliant skylights. With this project being a complete removal of the existing roofing system, there was concern about inclement weather, including unpredictable thunderstorms. To mitigate these concerns, we were able to efficiently run three separate crews to remove the existing roof, install cover-board, and apply the new SPF roofing system in conjunction with one another, effectively sealing the roof in sections. The challenge was working within the airport where close attention was payed to preventing FOD from entering the runway and avoiding disturbance to air traffic. After five short weeks of work, the roof system and new skylights were successfully installed and completed!
