Milwaukee Public Schools Adopt Innovative Roof Drainage System, Extend Life of School Buildings
ATLANTA — Atlas® Roofing Corporation is celebrating its successful and ongoing partnership of more than 20 years with Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS). Throughout their relationship, Atlas® and MPS have repaired, replaced and maintained more than 200 roofs across the school system’s expansive and historic network of buildings. Using the Atlas® Certified Drainage Program™ (CDP) to evaluate and repair the individual roofing system of each building, MPS has improved the condition of their schools, reduced maintenance costs and rescued several buildings from being condemned. The school system remains in strong partnership with Atlas® and continues to see the benefits of an innovative roof design and maintenance program that protects their buildings – many of which have historic significance.
Before working with Atlas Roofing, many of the schools at Milwaukee Public School Systems were under threat of closure due to unsafe conditions. MPS partnered with Atlas Roofing Corporation to ensure the roofing systems would solve safety concerns and extend the life of the historic school buildings.
