Project Summary

NECC successfully completed a roof replacement project at Vernon Johns Middle School for Petersburg City Public Schools, delivering a high-performance TPO roofing system designed for long-term durability and energy efficiency. This project reflects NECC’s continued commitment to quality workmanship and its ability to manage complex roofing installations within the public education sector. The team worked closely with project stakeholders to ensure all work met district standards, safety requirements, and manufacturer specifications.

The scope of work included installation of new roof insulation, providing a thermally efficient substrate for the new system. NECC installed a mechanically attached TPO roofing system, incorporating precision detailing to ensure full watertight integrity and compliance with warranty standards. Additional work included new flashing and sheet metal components to reinforce transitions and perimeters, along with joint sealants to enhance overall building envelope protection.

To complete the system, NECC installed new roof drain assemblies and associated piping, ensuring proper drainage and preventing future water infiltration. The project was executed with careful coordination and attention to detail, minimizing disruption to school operations. The completed roof system delivers superior performance, energy efficiency, and protection—demonstrating NECC’s expertise in providing dependable roofing solutions for educational facilities.
