Owner: City of Bloomington
Location: Bloomington, Minnesota
Facility: Multiple Municipal Facilities
Project Type: Roof Access & Safety Improvements
Delivery: General Contractor
Work Environment: Occupied Municipal Facilities
Project Scope
Work included installation of permanent roof-access ladders and rooftop safety systems at multiple City facilities. Stonewing coordinated ladder installation, roof attachments and associated roofing work, guardrail systems, fall-protection components and associated roofing work. Installation was coordinated around existing rooftop equipment and building conditions while maintaining safe access and ongoing facility operations.
Project Execution
Stonewing managed field verification, material procurement, installation sequencing and coordination between specialty installers, roofing contractors and City staff. Existing conditions varied by facility and required field coordination to properly integrate the new access and safety systems with existing roofs, parapets and rooftop equipment. Work was sequenced to minimize disruption while maintaining weather protection and site safety.
Results
The completed improvements provide City maintenance personnel with permanent, safer and more efficient access to rooftop equipment and service areas. New ladders, guardrails and associated safety components were integrated into the existing facilities, with final punch-list work completed and the systems turned over to the City.
