At H.C. Anderson Roofing Company, we pride ourselves on delivering the best commercial roofing solutions tailored to the specific needs of our clients. Our recent project at a residence hall on the campus of Beloit College in Beloit, Wisconsin, is a prime example of our commitment to quality and expertise in the roofing industry.
Project Overview
Our team was tasked with removing the existing roofing system, inspecting and replacing any damaged insulation, and installing a new, durable roofing solution. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the steps we took to complete the project:
- Removal of Existing Roof Materials: The project began by carefully removing enough ballast to access and remove the existing membrane. This step allowed us to reach the underlying insulation and prepare the surface for the new roofing materials.
- Insulation Replacement: Our team inspected the exposed roof for any damaged insulation. We overlaid the existing insulation with an additional 2 inches of ISO insulation. This layer not only improved the roof’s insulation but also provided a solid foundation for the new roofing membrane.
- Membrane Roof Installation: We selected a 60 MIL EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) roofing membrane for its durability and excellent resistance to weathering. EPDM is known for its long lifespan and ability to withstand extreme temperatures, making it an ideal choice for our flat roof clients.
- Shingle Installation: For this project, we installed IKO Cambridge Architectural Roofing Shingles. These shingles are not only known for their durability but their dimensional profile and deep shadow bands make quite an impression on the roof’s appearance.
- Finishing Touches: We installed a new two-piece metal flashing around the perimeter of the roof. This addition not only provides a clean, finished look but also adds an extra layer of protection against water intrusion.
- Warranty: We offered a 15-year no-dollar-limit (NDL) warranty on both labor and materials. This comprehensive warranty ensures that the new roofing system will perform as expected and provides long-term protection for Beloit College.
Conclusion
This roofing project was the latest in a long partnership between the H.C. Anderson Roofing Company and Beloit College. Our team’s attention to detail and use of premium materials, such as the 60 MIL EPDM membrane, have provided Beloit College with a durable and reliable roofing solution that will serve the building well for many years.
