Weston Public Library
Weston, Massachusetts

ROOF REPLACEMENT AND ASSOCIATED WORK

The library was experiencing repeated moisture infiltration due to open elastomeric roof membrane seams, roof flashing penetrations, voids in the attic insulation system, and improperly-installed through-wall flashings. Gale designed a new thermoplastic (PVC) roof system with thermal insulation to reduce condensation occurrences and new decorative profile strips on the visible roof elevations to replicate a standing seam roof system. We added new through-wall flashings around the perimeter of the building. Gale also designed a modified insulation system to improve the thermal properties of the building, which reduced roof-related heating/cooling costs.
