SW Iowa Transit based in Atlantic, IA operates the public transit system in their eight counties in Southwest Iowa region- promoting economic growth and improved quality of life for Iowa residents.s.
The roof at the SWITA building had a major leaking problem, causing frustration to employees and damage to interior insulation. There were multiple areas of ponding over dozens of equipment, and several areas of roof penetration. At best, leak detection was a hit-or-miss. Since the original roof was comprised of built-up and gravel, the substrate posed a challenge since it disqualified many common options.
Typically in a government building, at least 3 bids are required to get a roof. Our was the only solution that didn’t require a complete (and costly) roof replacement. We recommended a Conklin Metal Roofing System which was created specifically to adhere to metal roofs.. It was the perfect solution without having to replace costly pieces of sheet metal roofing. Plus, the quick installation limited tenant disruption while creating a durable, long-lasting waterproof layer.
We had Armour restore the roof at our bus facility in Council Bluffs. They showed up as promised and the roof looks absolutely phenomenal! Several reviews have already noted Armour’s customer service, but I think it should be noted it’s not just great customer service from the sales folks and project manager it’s from top to bottom. Great crew all the way around. -Mark L.
