🏗️ Big project, big responsibility.
This week our crews are gearing up to tear off and replace the entire roof on the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) headquarters in Midtown Atlanta.
That skyline in the background isn’t just a nice view — it’s a reminder of what’s under our feet. GTRI has been solving hard problems in applied research since 1934, from national security to advancing the human condition. The people inside this building do work that matters, and they deserve a roof that protects it: their labs, their equipment, and the teams who show up every day.
A full tear-off on an active facility is a serious undertaking. It takes careful planning, tight coordination, and a crew that treats safety and quality as non-negotiable. That’s the part we’re most proud of — not just the finished roof, but how we get there: protecting the building, respecting the people working beneath us, and doing it right the first time.
To our field teams heading up top this week — stay sharp, stay safe, and let’s give GTRI a roof built to last. 🧰
Whitco Roofing — commercial roofing, done right.
