Problem/Objective
This historic building is over 100 years old and had four existing roof systems layered on it, including the original roof system. The prior roof system was leaking in multiple areas even with frequent repairs completed. There was too much weight on the structure to add another roof system building and with the history of leaks, the only solution was to do a complete roof replacement.
Solution
The previous four roof systems needed to be removed to relieve weight from the roof system. Deck replacement was necessary due to deck rot. ISO insulation was needed to build up the roof system before the 2-ply Derbigum Modified Bitumen Heat-Weld could be installed. All downspouts needed to be removed and replaced. Concrete decks needed repair.
Results
The roof replacement for this customer had many details that needed to be addressed, but with KCCR's expert knowledge of each detail, this customer's historic building is a beauty to behold. The roof no longer leaks and is water tight. The weight has been removed from the building structure which will maintain the integrity of the structure for decades. The customer's roofing system will last for many decades with a 30-year spec. The historical restoration of the Green Glazed "S" Tile, the clean coating of the concrete desks, the impressive guttering, and the functional and decorative downspouts highlight the beautiful architecture of this historic building.

Before
Before roof replacement and restoration, it looked like your typical old downtown Kansas City building.
After
The roof replacement, historical tile restoration, and architectural sheet metal not only guarantees the dependability of the building's structure, but it also helps drastically change the visual appeal from drab to a clean and polished exterior.
