On Sunday, November 5th 2017 an EF2 tornado struck Crown's Celina, Ohio facility. Thankfully, no employees were injured but the property damage and the impact on Crown's manufacturing operations was significant.

Cotterman's management team was onsite within an hour to assess the damage. The following day we began the recovery process. Our suppliers rallied together to deliver the materials ASAP. We began the demolition followed by the metal deck replacement and new roof installation.  It was a 24/7 operation. Nine acres of roof were covered by December 1st allowing the facility to move in new equipment and resume operations.

It was a successful recovery project. We met the challenging deadline with zero recordable injuries and a quality end product.

Last week, after the snow and ice finally cleared here in Dayton, Cotterman & Company Inc. completed a roof evaluation on a large warehouse facility that had recently started experiencing leaks. As part of the inspection, a date stamp was located on the membrane: DL ’99. That simple marking told a big story.

After severe storms rolled through the area, our Service Department was called to a local hospital to investigate new roof leaks. Cotterman & Company responded quickly and delivered solutions that protected critical facilities with no shutdowns, no delays, and no compromises.
