Case Study

Baltimore War Memorial

The project included a full tear-off of the 35-year-old modified bitumen roof, with asbestos present throughout, down to the original concrete deck. We installed a new tapered system with R-30 insulation, a vapor barrier and high-density cover board, followed by a three-ply membrane.

All parapet metal was replaced in patina green to maintain the building's historic character. We also tuckpointed the masonry and installed new galvanized bird wire.
