The Future Of Roofing Is Seamless! ™

Key Points:

• 370,000 square foot laboratory facility

• Challenges: Existing solar panels, stakeholder requirements, budget constraints

• Solution: Removed solar panels, installed TPO membrane, reintegrated panels

• Success factors: Quick completion, specialized equipment, adaptable approach

The Kaiser Permanente project presented us with the challenge of re-roofing a massive 370,000 square foot laboratory facility. This project's complexity was amplified by the presence of solar panels covering 75% of the roof area. Our initial proposal to use a foam and coating system was met with resistance from the solar panel company, forcing us to pivot and find an alternative solution that would satisfy all parties involved.

Balancing the client's needs, budget constraints, and the solar panel company's requirements demanded creative problem-solving. Our team devised a plan that began with the careful removal and storage of the existing solar panels. We then proceeded to install a new TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) membrane over the existing roof structure. This solution not only met the performance requirements but also gained approval from the solar panel company.

One of the highlights of this project was the speed and efficiency with which our team operated. The TPO installation was completed in a remarkable 15-day timeframe, a testament to our crew's expertise and the specialized equipment we employed. Our use of advanced adhesive application techniques significantly accelerated the process without compromising on quality.

The success of the Kaiser Permanente project underscored our ability to adapt to unforeseen challenges and deliver high-quality results under pressure. By finding a solution that satisfied all stakeholders, we not only completed the project successfully but also strengthened our reputation for problem-solving and flexibility in large-scale commercial roofing projects.
