[heading-style-h3]Multifamily Condo in Seattle: A Roof Made New[heading-style-h3]

‍

[heading-style-h4]Project Overview[heading-style-h4]

‍

[heading-style-h6]The Situation[heading-style-h6]

The flat roof over the units section had reached the end of its service life. The 15+ year-old SBS/APP torch-down system showed significant deterioration: standing water, over 35% granule loss, multiple failed patches, and areas of dry-rot plywood. A full roof replacement was necessary to protect the property and prevent further damage.‍

‍

[heading-style-h6]The Client[heading-style-h6]

The project focused on the  3,410 sq. ft.:

• Main Roof Area: 2,610 sq. ft.
• Parapet Walls & Curbs: 800 sq. ft.

The property owners needed a durable, warrantied flat roof system that addressed existing damage and ensured long-term reliability.

‍

[heading-style-h4]Challenges[heading-style-h4]

‍

• Extensive granule loss, failed patches, and ponding water.
• Areas of dry-rot plywood and potential joist damage.
• The existing BUR system needed complete removal for proper PVC installation.
• Coping and flashing had to be replaced to achieve watertight perimeter edges.
