Soaked Insulation Calls for $2.4M Roof Replacement at Ohio County Jail

A plan to replace most of the flat roof at the Stark County Jail in Ohio is expected to cost $2.4 million after water soaked the insulation in several areas. RoofTEC, the company that took infrared scans of the roof, found that 31 large areas with moisture, and recommended that 105,000 square feet be removed from the structure down to its concrete base. The new roofing system will have a slope of about 3 inches per 12 feet to allow water drainage.
