Can a large condo roof replacement be completed in Cedar Park without disrupting tenants and businesses? Dolan Roofing & Construction proved it’s possible.
We Completed a Full Condo Roof Replacement in Cedar Park—Without Disrupting Business Operations
When a commercial condo complex in Cedar Park was hit with storm damage, Dolan Roofing & Construction was their first call for a storm damage roof replacement. And while a large roof replacement like this always presents challenges, ongoing supply chain issues created yet another obstacle, making it difficult to obtain supplies for commercial roofing projects.
Even so, in the end, our team delivered for our clients, renewing protection for this property and the businesses operating from it. Come take a look!
Getting Started on This Cedar Park Roof Replacement
This project was located in Cedar Park, at a condo complex with multiple commercial tenants operating from office spaces within it. Major storms had passed through the area recently, damaging the roof and leaving the property manager concerned about the potential for leaks.
As we had previously reroofed her home, Dolan Roofing & Construction was her first call. To start, our team completed a full inspection of this roofing system. This inspection covered all parts of the roof, including:
- Exterior materials
- Roof valleys and ventilation
- Accessories such as flashing
- Gutter system
- Interior inspection for leaks and water damage
Storm Damage We Found During the Roof Inspection
We found widespread damage to the roof resulting from previous hail storms. This included severe damage to the roof itself, as well as to the gutters, leaving the roof vulnerable and threatening the livelihoods of the multiple businesses that operated from within the complex.
Our Recommended Roof Replacement Plan
Despite the ongoing supply chain issues at the time, a full roof replacement could not be avoided for this Cedar Park complex. A full tear off of the roof down to the decking would be needed before installing a new roofing system.
We recommended Owens Corning Duration shingles for the project, as the impact resistance would provide greater protection for this roof in the future, safeguarding the businesses operating here. In addition, we determined that a ridge vent upgrade would help to better ventilate the entire complex, extending the life of the roof.
Challenges of This Cedar Park Condo Roof Replacement
Every roofing project presents its own individual challenges and hurdles along the way to completion, and we faced two major obstacles to completing this project.
To start, the layout of the buildings within the complex meant our only access would be from the front of each building. Since these buildings were occupied by tenants operating businesses and seeing customers each day, we needed to take care to minimize disruptions to their operations. This meant scheduling our work carefully around their hours and working efficiently within those windows of time.
Additionally, materials shortages at the time of this project had disrupted the entire roofing industry, making delays commonplace. This meant the Dolan Roofing & Construction team had to find a way to source roofing materials from suppliers as quickly as possible to restore this severely damaged roof.
For roofing projects in Cedar Park, property managers also need to stay aware of local permitting requirements. Our team handles these details to keep projects compliant with Cedar Park building permits.
How We Completed the Project Successfully
With our task laid out for us, our team got to work! First, we worked with the tenants in the buildings to carefully coordinate our work schedule and avoid disruptions to their businesses. We scheduled all of our work over two successive weekends to achieve this, including Sunday-only work for the tenants whose buildings were open to the public on Saturdays as well.
To navigate the supply shortages, we sourced our roofing materials from several different Texas markets. We worked closely with suppliers to ensure that all shingles came from the same factory and dye lots to maintain a consistent color across each set of shingles.
In the end, we were able to overcome these challenges and fully replace each roof in the complex! We used the Owens Corning Driftwood color for this project. These shingles bring a combination of beauty and durability necessary for the thriving businesses within the complex.
It’s hard to argue with the results and the benefits, which include:
- Improved impact resistance
- Long-term prevention of leaks and resolution of damage
- Upgraded ventilation for improved roof lifespan and reduced HVAC load
