Close-up

NRCA member River City Roofing Co. Inc., Peoria, Ill., found a unique way to honor those who bravely serve their country.

The company’s headquarters are located next to a National Guard Air base, and Tim Garrison, founder of River City Roofing, wanted to pay tribute to those who serve. So the company installed a new roof system on its building and made it resemble the American flag.

Garrison used a grid system to lay out the stars and stripes and different colors of GAF EverGuard® TPO membrane to accomplish his task. Red and white TPO strips were used for the stripes, and a blue field with white star shapes were created for the canton.
