Recognizing the urgency and scale of the issue, Wesbrook Construction was called to provide a solution.

With demolition complete, the focus was shifted to rebuilding with a commitment to not only restore the warehouse but to significantly improve its resilience. New trusses, custom-engineered to withstand extreme snow loads and meet modern building codes, will be installed across the entire span. These upgraded trusses are designed with long-term durability in mind, helping to prevent future collapses and minimize risk during severe weather events.

For the new roofing system, we’ve selected the torch-on method, a tried-and-true approach for flat or low-slope roofs. This method involves the application of modified bitumen membranes, which are heated and fused together to form a watertight, seamless surface. Torch-on roofing is known for its exceptional durability, resistance to UV rays, and long lifespan - making it an ideal choice for commercial buildings exposed to harsh weather conditions.

Beyond the structural improvements, this project represents a new chapter for Bevco Sales. The reconstruction marks a transition from damage and disruption to renewal and growth. We’re not just replacing a roof - we’re helping to restore business continuity, employee safety, and confidence in the facility’s future.

At Wesbrook Construction, we take pride in delivering high-quality, resilient solutions that stand the test of time. This project is a testament to our commitment to excellence and our belief in building stronger futures - one project at a time.
