Phoenix West

Metal Tiles Chosen To Replace Storm-Damaged Roof

Techo Tile in Mission Red was used to retrofit the existing storm damaged roof of the Phoenix West condo development in Orange Beach, AL. The project received first-place honors for the commercial roofs category of ATAS International's 2023 Project Of The Year competition.

The architect was John M. Senkarik & Associates, and the panels were installed by Roofing Plus, Inc. The distributor was Commercial Roofing Specialties, Inc.

Rising 27 stories above the sugar-white sands and emerald waters of Orange Beach, Phoenix West offers residents a premier Gulf-front address with outstanding amenities. Built in 2005, the high-rise houses 225 spacious condominiums ranging from 1,926 sq. ft. to 4,400 sq. ft. Floor plans feature open living areas, gourmet kitchens and expansive balconies to take in panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico. Residents enjoy an exclusive lifestyle just minutes from the area's acclaimed restaurants, shopping, and attractions. Situated directly on the Gulf of Mexico, Phoenix West offers walkable access to the white-sand beaches of Orange Beach.

To replace this roof, the architect and building owner chose ATAS’ Techo Tile, a metal roof panel with a deep configuration in the form of an “S” or Spanish tile. The panel is installed vertically up the slope of the roof, with exposed fasteners and on a solid substrate. It is lightweight, allowing installation over an existing roof without the need for tear-off and disposal (depending upon local building codes). Typical applications for Techo Tile are commercial and residential roofing with a recommended minimum slope of 3:12. The tile is also suitable for mansard applications. Techo Tile has the look of a clay tile roof without the problems associated with its care. It is manufactured in .032 aluminum with a 70% PVDF paint finish, which makes it an excellent choice for coastal applications.
