Project Overview

Northgate Logistics operates around the clock, so a failing roof was a direct threat to inventory and to contract deadlines. Roofaro replaced 4,200 square metres of aging membrane in overnight phases, upgrading drainage and insulation without closing a single loading bay.

THE CHALLENGE

Ponding Water, Rising Bills, and No Room to Shut Down.

Two decades of patch repairs had left the roof with standing water, split seams above the packing hall, and insulation that had absorbed years of moisture. Energy costs climbed every quarter, and any full shutdown would have cost the client more than the roof itself.

OUR APPROACH

Phased Replacement. Zero Days of Lost Shipping.

We surveyed the deck with moisture scanning to map exactly which sections were saturated, then rebuilt the roof in eight overnight phases. Tapered insulation corrected the falls, new internal outlets cleared the ponding, and a reinforced TPO membrane was welded and tested section by section before each morning shift returned.

PROJECT IMPACT

Results That Keep the Operation Running.

Commercial roofing is judged by what it prevents. Fewer callouts, lower energy draw, and a warranty the facilities team can plan around are the numbers that matter here.
