I am not sure why I haven't posted any photos of our newest railroad project. This is a 240,000 sq. ft project. Scope of work- Remove the existing rock ballast, remove the EPDM membrane down to the existing insulation. 1/4" densdeck will then be installed (Mechanically) over the insulation. This is a cold process project- base and cap sheet will be installed using cold process adhesive. This project was started late April and will hopefully be completed mid fall... stay tuned!!!

ST. PETERS ROCK CHURCH

2010-06-03T17:44:00.000-07:00

What I love about having a roofing company is we are helping people everyday. With this project, there were numerous leaks. We were told that different areas were not able to be used because of the amount of water that was coming in the building. We were able to perform a recover over the existing roofing system. Carlisle 45mil TPO white membrane was installed mechanically over 1/2" R-Tech insulation board for a separation from the existing asphalt roofing system. The church will definitely see a difference in the cooling bill this extremely hot summer. Oh yeah- no leaks!!

SKIPPY PEANUT BUTTER PLANT

2010-05-26T20:58:00.000-07:00

As you can see this is a new construction project. We had the privilege of working with Burns & McDonnell from Kansas City, MO. This was a Carlisle 60mil EPDM roof application. Hickman metal was installed at the parapet walls and gutter and downspouts.

CRAIN CHEVROLET COMPLETE!

2009-11-30T09:41:00.001-08:00

Well, its been complete but I have failed to update everyone on the status! Everything went well- except the work a few days- wait for the rain to stop- work a few days- wait, you get the picture. As you can see, this roof system had alot of pitch pans to work around! The guys did great and Carlisle was please as always! I would like to point out something- It was not in the scope of work to install elastomeric flashing grade on the sheet metal connected to the HVAC unit but as you can see- Colonial Roofing goes beyond in order to make sure our clients have a sealed roof!

CRAIN CHEVROLET

2009-10-25T19:55:00.000-07:00

I should name this the post- Fast and Furious! We are currently working on Crain Chevrolet of Little Rock- This project was perfect for our schedule due to the hick-up on Judsonia. We are trying to squeeze this project in while awaiting our material for Judsonia! This will be a white 45mil- fully adhered project manufactured from Carlisle. We were able to meet our clients wishes and work with him on his schedule and budget! Here are a few pictures of before Colonial Roofing comes on scene!

PROGRESS IN MANSFIELD, AR

2009-06-08T21:24:00.001-07:00

Here is some updated photos of our progress in Mansfield, AR at the Youth Center. As you can see from the photos- The first building (Girls Dorm) All that we are waiting to complete this roof system is the aluminum coating. The existing roof system was completely removed down to the metal decking. Tapered insulation was installed then base sheet- mid ply sheet- then cap sheet.
Below the Girls dorm photos you can see the progress with the boys cabins. When i published the first photos of the boys cabins, we were informed to do a recover over the existing roofing system. After further investigating we gathered the roof systems would have to be removed down to the wood decking. The very last picture shows the base sheet over the insulation. This is not the finished product. Stay tuned!

The membrane will be installed over the existing roofing system. With this system-The owners budget is nearly cut in half while still having a energy efficient roofing system. This roofing job will be Project Managed by Freeman Collier. We will be starting this project this week and will finish this week- If the rain stays away!

CONWAY COMMONS

2009-04-01T21:35:00.000-07:00

We are proud to be servicing the Conway Commons for the THF REALTY (www.thfrealty.com) of St. Louis, MO. With this great responsibility we are repairing roof systems from Ballasted EPDM to TPO membranes. Whether it is a large repair, failing flashing details or just investigating why someone would want to throw a rock on top of a building, therefore causing a puncture in the membrane (Last picture) I guess they were trying to let off some anger issues!

Union Pacific Railroad Livonia, LA (IN PROGRESS)

2009-04-01T20:31:00.000-07:00

Here is the UPRR Livonia, LA job in progress. As you can see we take safety serious! We are pressure washing the existing roof system. As I mentioned before, the existing coating that was installed on this metal roof was failing and would be extremely difficult to remove. After bumping up the pressure and trying out different pressure tips- we found the perfect match! We are removing the nasty existing coating to assure positive attachment for the new coating material.

COMPLETED MI BURRITO

2009-04-01T20:15:00.000-07:00

Mi Burrito located in Maumelle, Arkansas. This project consisted of recovering the original roof system. We mechanically fastened a 1/2 in. recover board with a peel and stick base sheet over it.

Union Pacific Railroad Livonia, LA

2009-03-11T15:58:00.000-07:00

Colonial Roofing has worked hard building up a working relationship with Union Pacific Railroad. We have been awarded two more projects in Louisiana. One of them, listed here is located in Livonia, LA. The particular roof system had a previous, but yet poor metal restoration. Improper application of the coating has caused blistering and cracking. We will be using Thermo Manufaturing for the completion of this job. The scope of work with begin with removing debri and coating using power washers. Prep work with be addressed at all units, piping, and seams. All fasteners will be inspected and replaced if necessary. After prep work is completed, there will be 2 layers of "coating" applied. The first layer is a liquid coating that rubberizes when applied to the surface. The top layer is white in color and is also an Elastomeric coating. This coating is applied at 1.5 gallons per sqaure (100 sq. feet). We will begin this project within a few days.
