Schools, libraries, government offices, community centers—these buildings are the cornerstones of our communities. They’re where we learn, access resources, and connect with one another. Protecting these investments is vital, and that’s where Duro-Last comes in. Keep reading to learn more about the short and long term savings possible when you partner with Great Lakes Roofing and Duro-Last.
The Roofing Challenge for Public Buildings
Public buildings face unique challenges when it comes to roofing. They often have complex roof structures, require durability to withstand heavy foot traffic (for maintenance and repairs), and need to be energy-efficient to control operating costs. Traditional roofing systems often fall short, leading to leaks, premature deterioration, and costly repairs that strain budgets.
Duro-Last: The Solution That Stands Apart
Duro-Last roofing systems are engineered to meet the specific needs of schools and public buildings. Here’s why they’re the preferred choice:
- Unmatched Durability: Duro-Last’s single-ply membrane is incredibly robust, resisting punctures, tears, and weathering far better than many other options. This translates to a longer lifespan and fewer repairs, saving taxpayer dollars in the long run.
- Custom Fabrication: Duro-Last roofs are prefabricated in a controlled factory environment. This means fewer seams on the roof itself, minimizing the risk of leaks. Plus, the roof can be tailored to the specific dimensions of your building, ensuring a perfect fit.
- Energy Efficiency: The bright white surface of Duro-Last reflects sunlight, reducing the “heat island effect” and helping to keep your building cooler. This translates to lower energy costs for air conditioning, a significant advantage for large buildings.
Bonus!
When you partner with Duro-Last and Great Lakes Roofing for your next roofing project you’ll have access to TIPS – The Interlocal Purchasing System. That means streamlined bidding, pre-approved pricing, and savings for you and the community.
