We’ve done many roofing projects, to be sure. But as true problem solvers, our portfolio consists of more than just “roofing” solutions. Here are two especially interesting ones.
Grain Silo in Bridgeport, NE

A 5,000 SF+, 60-foot tall grain silo.
Problem
Water was infiltrating the silo and fermenting the product, forcing production to a halt.
Specifications
