Project Overview
A Failing Metal Roof, Replaced Around A Working Dealership
Technique Roofing was hired to perform a full roof replacement for a busy automotive dealership in Southern Ohio. The existing roof, composed of stitched-together metal panels, had reached the end of its service life and no longer met updated building code requirements. Our scope included complete removal of the old system and the installation of a high-performance Duro-Last roofing membrane engineered for long-term durability and compliance with current energy and insulation standards.
While technical excellence was a priority, the dealership owner emphasized a different success metric: business operations could not stop. From customer foot traffic to vehicle deliveries and service appointments, keeping the site safe and accessible was paramount — and Technique Roofing delivered.
Watch the project: crews phased the tear-off and install around daily dealership traffic.

Challenges & Solutions
Working With The Business, Not Around It
Challenge
Maintaining Daily Dealership Operations
Solution
Equipment was staged strategically and installation phased so the sales floor, service department and lot stayed fully accessible. Signage, safety barricades and daily coordination kept customer traffic safe.
Challenge
