Project Summary

Solution

After a thorough 2-1/2 year evaluation of all available roofing systems and contractors, the L.A. Wholesale Produce Market selected Highland Commercial Roofing for their project. Key factors in their decision included Highland's odorless RainShield® seamless single-ply roofing system, which could be installed over their existing asphalt BUR system, and the RainShield 20-year guarantee against leaks.

Results

The project was completed in just 65 days, thanks to the seamless RainShield® roofing system, which eliminated hundreds of miles of roofing seams and reduced peak roof temperatures by over 60 degrees with its white reflective Title-24 Cool-Roof surfacing. This will result in lower utility bills and reduced wear and tear on freezer and chiller equipment for LA Produce Market tenants, in addition to the benefits of a leak-proof roofing system that will last for over 20 years.
