The national epidemic in 2021 caused utter havoc, resulting in the closure of many businesses. Some roofing projects continued despite the destruction, like replacing the commercial roof at Ascension Saint Thomas Hospital in Nashville, Tennessee.
Nashville’s Eskola Roofing went above and beyond to help the local hospital. After an inspection revealed that the roof was in disrepair, they replaced it quickly and efficiently. The new roof has made a world of difference for everyone at the hospital.
The roofing company wasted no time and drew up a plan to work on the hospital’s roof. They completed the installation of a brand-new Trimco 2-ply modified bitumen roofing system in less than three months. As a result of the new roof, enormous improvements have already been seen at the hospital: There is no longer any danger of leaks or collapse, making conditions much safer for both workers and patients alike.
There were four major concerns to consider throughout the project:
1) The Safety of Hospital Personnel and Patients: Because of the COVID-19 fears, additional security measures had to be implemented to safeguard both patients and staff. PPE was worn at all times, and social isolation was practiced. Employees worked with medical personnel to ensure that all necessary precautions were taken. Furthermore, employees frequently cleaned their hands and equipment.
2) Heavy Traffic: Because the hospital was open while the roof was being replaced, extra measures had to be taken to ensure that regular hospital activities were not disrupted.
3) Trash Unloading: To remove the debris from the old roof, which could only be done at night due to limitations on their crane, the team needed to plan ahead and organize themselves.
4)The Height: Employees were forced to take greater precautions and use extra caution since it was so high.
Despite these difficulties, Eskola Roofing finished the new roof on schedule, and Ascension Saint Thomas Hospital in Nashville has already noticed a big improvement. Thanks to the crew’s installation of its new Trimco 2-ply modified bitumen roofing system, it is now better protected against bad weather and will have fewer leaks!
