The Winn Science Center at St. Mark’s School of Texas has become a signpost of the high quality of the new and upgraded buildings, with its classic copper roof and dome serving as signature design elements for the upscale campus – and they’ve also proved to be models of survivability in the face of severe weather.

Rather than replacing the existing shingle roof on Cuyahoga Falls City Hall, Garland’s R-Mer® Loc system was chosen to handle the challenging reroof project.
