The CHALLENGE

The Beacon is a new luxury apartment complex sprouting from the remnants of the old Jersey City Medical Center. The hospital was closed in 2005 and work has begun to renovate all 8 buildings.

The SOLUTION

it should be noted that this project was completed BEFORE the arrival of Hurricane Sandy. The vegetative roofing and waterproofing weathered the storm without any damage! The Laurenco RMA System was chosen for this job because the system can be installed over the existing residue (asphalt & coal-tar-pitch) already present on the roof. Other systems would have required extensive scarification to provide a clean substrate. This would have added cost and time to the project.

Additionally, the concrete substrate had been subjected to continued wetting due to the leaking roof. The Laurenco RMA System only requires a surface dry condition for application, again saving time in the re-roofing process. Time equals money!
