An integral manufacturing facility was experiencing severe water infiltration and roof leaks for many years. Attempts to repair the existing roof provided no relief and wasted away maintenance budgets. The facility needed to act fast to salvage the facility’s infrastructure from damage due to roof leaks and alleviate severe health and safety concerns.
PROJECT GOALS
This industrial facility’s management team was searching for answers on how to address severe health and safety concerns below one of their roof assets. The roof leaks had continued for years, with the leaking water starting to degrade the building components around it.
Tektum came in to complete an initial investigation and assessment. The assessment showed that the existing roof system was well beyond remedial repairs. With the building scheduled for decommissioning within 10-15 years, the Owner needed a cost-effective solution that would ensure a stable and durable roof until the building was no longer needed. Tektum developed a roof system that was 30% below the previous budgets for roof replacement, while ensuring the integrity of the system would achieve the remaining life cycle of the facility.
