Project Details

Project Overview

Magid Glove and Safety purchased a building in the suburbs of Chicago to better suit their manufacturing and warehousing requirements. Ridgeworth, the low bidder on the project, worked with manufacturer Johns Manville to create different opportunities and long-term solutions that reduced the cost of the 14-acre roofing project and lengthened the term of the NDL warranty. Ridgeworth and Magid Glove and Safety worked collaboratively throughout the project to modify some large HVAC equipment, remove abandoned rooftop equipment, and complete the roof installation, all without interrupting the day-to-day business taking place beneath the roof. Ridgeworth’s experts first removed just under 7.5 million pounds of ballast. They then repurposed and removed the old EPDM roof for recycling. After installing two layers of 1.8 thermal insulation and a quarter-inch cover board to increase the thermal efficiency of the new roof, they installed a Johns Manville 80 mil TPO roof system.
