Maintain Your Albuquerque, NM Roofing or Watch It Get Blown Away

"Barranca Elementary School in Los Alamos had its roof blown off just this May, Tris DeRoma of the Los Alamos Monitor reports. Part of the roof, specifically above the school gym, was torn asunder after a dustdevil whizzed past the school. While no one was hurt in the incident, school officials considered the incident as a wake-up call regarding strict compliance with building codes, especially when it comes to roofing. In a meeting following the incident, District Assets manager Joan Ahlers reminded everyone that, aside from the building code, the weather has also changed tremendously in the past few decades. Building codes are constantly updated to help old and new structures resist the changing weather. The older buildings in the area may be compliant with the code at the time but hardly with the code today. This is why the method of installing roofing in Albuquerque, NM changes a lot."
