The Commons
Schulte Roofing completed a detailed commercial roofing renovation for The Commons at Texas A&M University, the central link between four Southside residence halls serving more than 1,500 students. The dual-system design—combining modified built-up roofing with TPO membranes—had to work on both concrete and steel decks while meeting FM Global requirements. The level of coordination involved here reflects the same disciplined approach Schulte applies across major institutional sites throughout College Station roofing projects.
