"The heart of Vassar is strong and watertight"
Jaeger contacted local Garland Territory Manager Tim Roth to assess the condition of the current roof. Roth quickly determined that the roof at College Center was not viable for restoration, and that the best course of action was a full replacement. Said Roth, “The previous EPDM system was showing signs of failure. After discussing options with Dean and his team at Vassar, we landed on a 2-ply modified bitumen system, which delivers a lifespan about twice as long as a standard EPDM roof.”
Roth partnered with local roofing contractor Milcon Construction on the project, which delivered on time and on budget. At the conclusion of the project, Roth delivered a 30-year warranty on the new roof to Jaeger.
Jaeger explained, “If College Center has a leaky roof, it has a pretty major impact on our entire campus. Thanks to the new system, we’re able to focus our attention on other building projects, knowing that the heart of Vassar is strong and watertight.”
