Documented roof planning for airport terminal roofing across Las Vegas commercial facilities.
Airport & Aviation Roofing Questions
How do you handle project scheduling at an operational airport like Harry Reid International Airport? #
We work with the airport facilities department and FAA Part 139 coordinator to develop a phased work plan approved by airport operations. Material deliveries, crane lifts, and any work near airside areas are scheduled during approved windows and coordinated with the FAA NOTAM process if required. We've done this at multiple airports and it's a standard part of our project setup - not an exception.
What roof systems are standard for large-span airport terminal roofs? #
Most terminal re-roofing in Las Vegas uses a TPO or PVC single-ply membrane on a tapered insulation system designed to improve drainage and address ponding. For new high-bay aviation structures and hangars, standing seam metal is often specified. The selection depends on the existing deck, load capacity, and operational constraints - we develop a spec after walking the roof with your facilities engineer.
How do you deal with the density of HVAC and mechanical penetrations on airport terminals? #
Terminal HVAC density is significantly higher than standard commercial. Our pre-project survey documents every penetration, curb height, and mechanical clearance before we develop the work plan. Flashing details for oversized equipment curbs and complex through-penetrations are engineered individually - we don't use standard small-building flashing details on aviation structures.
Can you work on airside structures (cargo aprons, gate structures near active runways)? #
Yes, with appropriate badging and in full coordination with airfield operations. Airside work requires a higher level of pre-planning and crew credentialing, which we factor into the bid timeline. We do not mobilize crew members without confirmed airside authorization - that's a baseline requirement we enforce, not a favor we ask.
Do you handle hangar roofing for FBOs and general aviation facilities? #
Yes. General aviation hangar roofing - whether for a single-bay private hangar or a multi-unit FBO complex - is a regular part of our commercial project mix in Las Vegas. High-bay hangars with wide-flange steel or pre-engineered building systems require roofing contractors who understand those structures' specific uplift and thermal movement characteristics. We do.
