Leaks No More

After years of enduring leaks and failed patchings with its 20-year-old asphalt shingle roof, Deltona (Fla.) Elementary School commissioned roof consultant Arthur Sark of Rogers and Sark Consulting to replace the roof. Sark specified a metal roof system applied over the existing 110,000-sf roof. The system consists of double-lock standing-seam metal panels over a 40-mil waterproof membrane, ½-inch DensDeck DuraGuard roof board, and 3-inch polyisocyanurate board, fastened through the existing roof system into the metal deck.
