CASE STUDY
Airport Distribution Center
Service: Roof Replacement
Square Footage: 250,000
Client: Property Management Company
Location: New Orleans, Louisiana
Roof System
- Type: Metal
- Panel: R-Panel
Problem
Following a devastating hurricane, a major airport distribution center in New Orleans sustained extensive damage to 250,000 square feet of metal roofing. The destruction caused a complete halt in operations for several key airport-based businesses, creating an urgent need for both temporary and permanent roofing solutions.
NRP Solution
NRP worked in close collaboration with the client and project engineers to establish immediate temporary measures, enabling operations to resume as quickly as possible. Once business continuity was secured, we began a full roof replacement—including metal panels, gutters, downspouts, and damaged structural components. Pre-construction meetings with all stakeholders helped shape a phased schedule that allowed tenants to remain operational throughout the process. Protective measures were implemented inside the facility to ensure worker safety and productivity during construction. Weekly progress calls ensured transparency and alignment with the agreed-upon project timeline.
Scope of Work
- Full metal R-panel roof replacement
- Purlin and structural component repairs
- Gutter and downspout replacement
- Site coordination and phased construction scheduling
The project was completed in just four months, securing a new 20-year warranty and ensuring a safe, reliable environment for our client. Operations remained active during construction, and the client was extremely satisfied with the speed, coordination, and quality of the work performed.
