Roofing: A core competency
Institutional long-term study, design, and construction
management
For more than 20 years, building envelope design has been
a mainstay of our practice at
Trudeau Architects. Our professionals work with institutional clients who need
long-term solutions that meet
the goals of long-term performance
– such as sites with difficult access, buildings with sensitive occupants who
cannot move out during the interim, meeting tight budgets, and short
construction schedules.
Wide range, many locations
Our team has a long history of working with healthcare
and education facilities, creating plans for maintenance, repair and
replacement. Projects have included a wide range of roof types and conditions,
from traditional built up systems, and single-ply systems such as EPDM and TPO,
to metal.
We have replaced
roofing at Ellis Hospital in Schenectady, St. Peters Hospital
in Albany, and at 16 New York State Office of Mental Health psychiatric campuses – including centers in Buffalo, the Capital
District, Central New York, the Bronx, Elmira, and in the Mohawk Valley. We've completed well in excess of 700,000 square of
medical building roof replacements in Upstate New York alone.
Most projects have included asbestos abatement and hazardous material
reviews, which we perform with a consultant team that includes firms with skills in engineering, nuclear and infrared roof scanning, hazardous material inspection and testing, and other
specialties as required.
Knowledgeable, experienced staff
More than half of our staff is LEED certified and all of our staff is experienced with EO-111 and knowledgeable in EO-88 Build Smart NY. We regularly meet with manufacturers for updated training and information on changes in products, installation, and maintenance procedures, including Carlise-Syntec, Firestone Building Products, Versico Roofing Systems, Garland,Tremco, Mule-Hide, and several specialty manufacturers.
Do NOT disturb...
We're experienced with the sensitivities involved in working on projects over occupied spaces at schools and health care campuses. We understand the importance of coordinating mechanical systems and disruptive removal operations with continued occupancy requirements. As a small and specialized firm, we have a strong knowledge base and the competence to give you the quality final product you need with the professionalism you demand.
