Sika Roofing and Waterproofing names Farrell Roofing’s Las Vegas Convention Center the Low-Slope Project of the Year!
Wednesday, February 19th Vice President Matt Thomas, Las Vegas Branch Manager Mike Wells, Regional Sales Manager Dan Behm, and Cleveland Branch Manager Bryan Bossard accepted the award at the Sika Roofing and Waterproofing Customer Appreciation & 2024 Projects of the Year Celebration.
When asked about the accomplishment, Matt Thomas noted, “Being awarded this contract to start with is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. These do not come up every day. Being able to not only win the contract but to get the award for project of the year is a fantastic accomplishment.”
“From the Bid process to the final inspections [everyone] worked so well together to ensure this was a success. This job shows that not only the Las Vegas branch but A.W. Farrell as a whole is up for any challenge.” – Mike Wells, Las Vegas Branch Manager
The large-scale reroof of approximately 48 acres (2,093,454 sq. ft.) of the renowned Las Vegas Convention Center demanded a comprehensive approach and precise execution, incorporating three distinct specifications tailored to address various needs of the building’s roofing system:
- 80 mil S372 Sika PVC Rhinobond System specified for its superior wind uplift resistance and ability to reduce membrane flutter. This ensures the roof’s durability and performance under extreme Nevada weather conditions.
- Tear-off and installation of 80 mil Sika PVC over 1/2” DensDeck cover board provided a robust, long-lasting solution that met stringent building codes and performance standards.
- Sikalastic 641 RoofPro (4-Course Coating System): A seamless, reinforced liquid-applied membrane coating system installed over the existing PVC membrane to reinforce and protect specific roof areas. This approach allowed for increased flexibility and enhanced waterproofing capabilities.
“When you are awarded a project of that size and magnitude it is an insane feeling of accomplishment,” Thomas reflected. “The amount of work, time, and effort spent just getting the project bid ready to turn in was unreal… Finally having a project like this has shown everyone in Las Vegas that we belong and they have more choices.”
Once again, we’d like to congratulate all involved in this monumental project. We truly appreciate your hard work and dedication!
‘Proud history, bright future’ are words we live by, and this project is the perfect example of the bright future we see for Farrell Roofing.
