Commercial Roofing Repaired & Restored
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Strategic Repairs Instead of Costly Replacement
Denver University (DU) was experiencing roofing issues across multiple campus buildings due to aging roof systems. Problems such as flashing failures, drainage gasket deterioration, and roof penetrations were causing active leaks and creating the potential for interior and structural damage.
Rather than moving forward with broad, expensive replacements, DU’s maintenance department worked closely with Integrity Pro Roofing to evaluate targeted repair solutions. After reviewing the proposed scope of work, DU contracted Integrity Pro Roofing to complete strategic repairs across approximately 30,000 square feet of roofing, preventing further damage and protecting valuable campus assets.
ABOUT THE CLIENTDenver University
Denver University is a major higher-education institution located in Denver, Colorado, with an extensive campus that includes academic buildings, administrative facilities, and support infrastructure. Maintaining these facilities requires careful coordination between performance needs, budget planning, and long-term asset protection.
The roofs involved in this project spanned multiple buildings and had been exposed to years of Colorado weather, contributing to gradual system deterioration.
THE CHALLENGES
Multiple Roof Issues, One Strategic Solution
As the roofing systems aged, DU began to experience multiple points of failure across several roofs. These issues were not isolated to one area, but instead spread across different components of the roofing systems.
Key challenges included:
Aging roof membranes showing signs of wear Flashing failures around roof edges and penetrations Deteriorated drainage gaskets leading to water intrusion Small holes and openings allowing leaks to develop Increased risk of damage to interior finishes and building assetsWhile the problems were serious, DU wanted to avoid unnecessary full roof replacements if effective repair solutions were available.
The solution
Targeted Repairs That Protect Campus Assets
Integrity Pro Roofing began with a thorough evaluation of each affected roof area, working closely with DU’s maintenance department to identify the most critical issues and prioritize repairs.
Scope of Work Included
Repair and reinforcement of damaged flashing Replacement and sealing of compromised drainage gaskets Repair of holes and penetrations within roof membranes Resealing vulnerable seams and transition points Long-term warranty coverageThe proposed solutions were reviewed in detail by DU’s maintenance team to ensure they aligned with campus standards, performance expectations, and budget considerations.
PROJECT EXECUTION
Careful Coordination Across Multiple Buildings
After approving the repair plan, Denver University contracted Integrity Pro Roofing to complete the work across approximately 30,000 square feet of roofing.
The project was executed with careful coordination to minimize disruption to campus operations. Repairs were completed efficiently, with attention to detail in high-risk areas such as drainage points and penetrations.
Throughout the process, Integrity Pro Roofing maintained open communication with the maintenance department, ensuring transparency and alignment at every stage.
Results
Stabilized Performance, Costly Failures Prevented
The targeted repair approach delivered strong results for Denver University:
Active leaks were resolved
Flashing and drainage systems were restored to proper function
Roof penetrations were sealed and reinforced
Future water intrusion risks were significantly reduced
Interior assets and building systems were protected
Costly emergency repairs and premature replacement were avoided
By addressing the root causes of the roofing issues, DU was able to stabilize roof performance and extend the service life of existing systems.
LONG-TERM VALUE
Proactive Protection for Campus Facilities
The restored roof now provides reliable performance backed by a strong warranty, allowing the property owners to plan future capital improvements without urgent roofing concerns. The coating system also reduces the likelihood of recurring repairs and helps manage long-term maintenance costs.
