When people think of commercial roofing projects, they often picture flat, industrial roofs. However, the commercial roofing world extends far beyond that, encompassing historic buildings, public spaces, and architectural treasures. In this blog post, we'll take you behind the scenes of United Materials, a roofing company with a diverse portfolio that includes iconic structures like the bird exhibit at the Denver Zoo, Union Station, and the Science Pyramid Pavilion at the Denver Botanic Gardens. In our latest video installment of “Under the Roof,” we delve into some fascinating job site stories and showcase our commitment to preserving Denver's architectural heritage.
