[heading-style-h3] New Life for an Old Roof: Complete Tear-Off & PVC Replacement in Seattle[heading-style-h3]
<<From failing TPO to flawless PVC—We replaced the old system, repaired damaged substrates and weathered parapet walls. All protected by 20-year warranties for performance and workmanship.>>
[heading-style-h4]Project Overview[heading-style-h4]
[heading-style-h6]The Situation[heading-style-h6]
Years of Seattle weather and limited maintenance had left this multifamily roof system in poor condition. The TPO membrane had failed in several areas, plywood was soft or rotted, and coping seams along parapet walls had opened. A complete replacement was the most cost-effective solution.
[heading-style-h6]The Client[heading-style-h6]
A multifamily apartment community in Seattle with 6,847 sq. ft. of roofing:
- 3,334 sq. ft. main TPO roof
- 1,575 sq. ft. parapet walls
- 300 sq. ft. small roof sections
- 1,638 sq. ft. deck area
The property owners wanted a long-term fix to stop active leaks, improve energy efficiency, and secure a manufacturer-backed warranty.
[heading-style-h4]Challenges[heading-style-h4]
Replacing a roof with multiple sections and surfaces required careful staging:
- Fully occupied property, requiring work to be staged with minimal disruption to residents
- Main roof, small sections, parapets, and deck each needed specific materials and methods.
- Tear-off uncovered hidden rotted plywood that required immediate replacement.
- Deck and parapet work needed extra safety measures for crews and equipment.
