In 2009, RCS completed a partial roof replacement design for thirteen of the twenty-four buildings in the Butterfield Trail
Apartments in El Paso, Texas. The actual roof replacement and construction administration was completed at the end of 2010.
The project consisted of approximately 29,540 square feet of low slope membrane roof replacement and approximately 32,180 square feet of steep slope shingle roof replacement. The project also involved the replacement of deteriorated wood decking over a significant portion of the buildings.
The new roof systems selected and designed for this project included 30-year dimensional asphalt shingles for the steep
areas and a fully adhered white thermoplastic single ply membrane. The project also included adding slope for positive drainage to the low slope roof areas, roof drain modifications, and cladding the exterior wood trims on the buildings with
metal to reduce overall building maintenance for the Owner. RCS also assisted the Owner with selection of the contractors to be included in the Bidding.
