  • We use a multi-layered approach to ensure complete protection during re-roofing:

    • Ceiling Containment Barrier: Our custom-fitted containment barrier acts as a primary shield, capturing dust and debris and preventing it from falling into the workspace below.

    • Debris Netting: For added protection, we install debris netting above the barrier to catch larger objects like roofing materials and tools.

    Our combination of protective measures ensures a clean and safe environment for your employees and equipment during re-roofing projects.

  • Interior protection is valuable for a wide range of construction projects, especially those where minimizing dust, debris, and disruption is critical. Here are some examples:  

    • Renovations in Occupied Spaces: Offices, hospitals, schools, retail stores, and hotels often require renovations while remaining operational. Interior protection ensures a safe and clean environment for occupants during construction.  

    • Re-Roofing Projects: Re-roofing generates significant dust and debris. Interior protection safeguards equipment, products, and workspaces below.  

    • Industrial and Manufacturing: Factories, warehouses, and processing plants often require construction or maintenance that could impact production. Interior protection helps maintain productivity and prevent contamination.  

    • Healthcare Facilities: Hospitals and clinics have stringent infection control requirements. Interior protection helps maintain a sterile environment during construction and prevents the spread of dust and pathogens.  

    • Data Centers and Sensitive Environments: Construction in data centers, cleanrooms, and labs requires careful containment to protect sensitive equipment from dust and other contaminants.  

    • Historical Renovations: Preserving historical buildings during renovations often requires specialized containment to protect delicate features and finishes.
