Retrofit Roofing System
Ceco Building Systems newest product, the NuRoof, is a metal retrofit framing system capable of replacing leaky old roofs and/or changing the aesthetics of a building. An alternative to conventional roofing, the retrofit system installs 16- to 12-gauge steel framing over existing frames to create a sloped plane and provide a surface for a standing-seam roof. NuRoof works with roofs of any slope; roofs consisting of steel, wood, or concrete; and those containing built-up or single-ply membranes. Ceco manufactures the system from environmentally friendly materials that can help schools earn LEED credits. NuRoof also reduces heat transmission into buildings by as much as 45 percent, according to the company.
