Can you work on a live data center like Switch Las Vegas without interrupting cooling systems?

Yes, but it requires the facility manager's active cooperation on the production schedule. We build the sequence around the cooling system's maintenance windows, work cooling-adjacent penetrations during planned low-load periods, and never unilaterally disturb any mechanical penetration without written approval for that specific action on that specific date. We do not make field decisions that affect cooling infrastructure without facility-manager authorization.

How do you handle fiber and conduit penetrations through the roof?

We inventory every fiber conduit and conduit bundle penetration before production begins. Each one gets stripped to deck, a properly-sized pitch pan or curb flashing installed to manufacturer spec, and a secondary water stop applied inside the conduit bore. We photograph the completed detail and include it in the penetration manifest delivered at closeout. No tools or equipment are routed across conduit bundles at any point in the project.

How does Las Vegas's extreme summer heat affect data center roofing production?

Cooling systems at Las Vegas data centers run at or near maximum capacity during June through September. We impose no-work buffers around active cooling units during peak-heat hours, schedule mechanical-adjacent work for morning production windows, and do not position staging or equipment in ways that restrict intake or exhaust airflow on any running unit. We also limit tear-off section size in summer so that temporary insulation removal does not create additional heat load inside the building.

Do you carry the insurance and licensing required for data center roofing in Nevada?

Yes. We hold an active Nevada C-15a (Roofing) contractor license from the Nevada State Contractors Board, general liability, workers' compensation, and umbrella coverage at limits that support data center campus projects. Certificates of insurance naming the facility owner and operator as additional insured are provided before mobilization. We pull the applicable building permit — City of Las Vegas, Henderson, or Clark County — for all work above the permit threshold.

Data center roof scope for a Las Vegas facility?

We will walk the roof, inventory every penetration, and produce a scope that accounts for your cooling-system constraints and change-management requirements before we propose a production sequence.
