Cajundome Roof: Wow

[CajunVic]

UL owns the Cajun Dome, the city funds it.

Oooops

What is the cost to clean? Why is this not just in the yearly budget as a maintenance item? It's not like we don't know the kind of environment this building resides in....

More examples of Louisiana (the state) half assing every thing.

Who has a million dollars yearly for this?

[CajunRebel]

It had a warranty too. I pass by the dome 4 times a day and have to look at it every time.

From the article back in 2017:

The product, Kymax by GAF Coatings, was applied to the Superdome after Hurricane Katrina. When the Cajundome staff prepared bid specifications for the roof resurfacing project, it included that as an alternate, not sure if it was affordable, but the bid came in at an affordable $50,000, he said.

The use of that material, Ashurst said, secured the Cajundome a 20-year clean warranty instead of a 10-year warranty.

Seems like it is past time to make a warranty claim.

With the terrific success they have shown with the Supderdome and Cajundome, they may not be around any longer.

1MM was to clean and recoat. It has to be recoated every time? It can’t just be cleaned?

Even if it is a third of a Million who will pay for it?

That's my point. Louisiana is a joke.

So we just let it turn to ____? Fricking clean it.

If you can't pay your vehicle note can you keep the vehicle? Service of any kind has a price.

How many people here clean their roof? If you have a roof in south Louisiana your roof has mold and mildew. It comes with the territory.

What if we had just invested in Blackham?

[CajunAmos]

Isn't maintenance part of the cities operatorship contract?

[facelessjonmoon]

The Superdome’s failed too. They just cleaned/repainted it last year so Caesars wouldn’t have their name slapped down on a moldy canvas. But it was just as bad.

Id like to know what company we hired to do this, and I’d like to know why we haven’t sued them yet.

Yep. The superdome roof was terribly dirty right before it was rebranded

That’s why nobody has white roofs in Louisiana

Exactly my point. Nobody cleans their roof. It's a waist of time and effort.
