Vets at Work Contracting, Inc. completed this environmentally friendly and economically smart roofing system by using the existing gravel built-up roof as the base for their new roof when installing the SureCoat Roof System.

9,600 SF of this 10,000 SF roof was restored with a reroof alternative that is making its name known across the United States, SureCoat Systems, famous for the SureCoat Roof System. SureCoat Systems has continued to awe the industry with solutions to construction building problems that have plagued the industry for decades.

Vets at work is a veteran owned and operated construction company specializing in the SureCoat Roof System for hospitals, churches, government buildings and other specialized projects where environment and cost are important.

This project consisted of a hot tar and gravel built-up roofing system that had been repaired for years. Areas of this roof showed several signs of moderate abrasion and wear. The roof repairs were separating and deteriorating causing damage to the substrate underneath the previous roofing materials. The roof itself and the asphalt repairs were worsening and had become extremely brittle.

Roof mastic patches scattered this roof where cracks along the parapet walls and throughout the roof field were allowing for moisture intrusion, deteriorating the roof further. There are ponding areas in the field of the roof that were feeding the roof leaks and contributing to the roof repair failures. Several areas were exposed to direct weather and elements due to the severe deterioration of the roof and weather beaten roof mastic repairs.When asked why the SureCoat Roof System? James Wright, owner of Vets at Work replied, “We wouldn’t have used anything else. The SureCoat Roof System was the only choice because of the SureCoat Roof System warranty!”
