Jefferson County Rush Strong School Re-Roofing

About This

Eskola Roofing Project

Here’s one of Eskola Roofing Company’s most distinctive projects to date- Jefferson County, Tennessee’s Jefferson Public High School. This was a re-roofing project in Jefferson County, Tennessee, and the company was thrilled to have the opportunity to help out the school district by providing a top-quality roof that will last for many years to come.

Jefferson Public High School in Jefferson County, Tennessee, needed a new roof. The company was honored to be the one to provide it! This commercial roofing project was unique and challenging, but the end result was worth it.

Eskola Morristown Commercial Roofing contractors had the chance to revamp some schools in the Jefferson County, Tennessee area in 2021. The local public school system was having difficulties making ends meet to re-roof all of their schools, so Eskola Roofers agreed to pitch in and break up the projects into manageable chunks. They identified the roofs in the direst need of repair and replacement and helped establish a plan to get those repaired or replaced as soon as possible. In addition, they also took care of needed repairs on other roofs to give them a longer lifespan.

The Roofing Company chose to use the Garland Modified 2ply roofing system on this project because it is designed to withstand a variety of climates and applications. This was perfect for the school district in Jefferson County! The school district was extremely happy with the end result and so were the students and staff!

Watch the Eskola Morristown Roofers install garland roofing material on a roof covering 27,200 square feet in just six months!

If you are in need of commercial roofing services, trust the experts at Eskola Roofing Company! They are available for all your commercial roofing projects throughout the southeastern United States.
