‘I see dead people troubled roofing’

A leaky walk through Whole Foods in Lakewood
This is a reconstruction of how I remember the event...the hole in the roof may not have actually been there.
It rarely rains in Denver, so when it does, I find out all sorts of things about the status of roofing in Denver. Recently, I went into the new Belmar Whole Foods while it was raining. The rain was a mild, consistent drizzle. I entered the store, and stopped dead in my tracks.
Immediately I knew something was wrong: all around me were buckets, rags, and wet floor signs. This was shocking: the store was less than 2 years old at the time, and already it was leaking at the seams?
If this had been any other store, it would have been an expected occurrence, but for Whole Foods, it was an embarrassment. It didn’t fit their image of high quality products, seamless shopping experience, and flawless management. Someone had skimped on their metal roofing.
Your company’s roof reflects upon your company.
If you have a leaky roof (often accompanied by stained acoustic ceiling tiles), you should call your property manager right away, and have it taken care of. A bad roof is not just an inconvenience: it’s a warning sign to your customers and clients. A leaky roof announces “This Business is in Disrepair.”
What’s your most shocking leaky roof story?
Were you ever in a business with a bad roof? How did it make you feel? Did you experience horror? Dread? Fear? Uncertainty? Doubt?
This is kind of a silly story…Belmar is a gorgeous store with an amazing exterior and interior. it’s surprising to hear that they were having problems with roofing, but take into consideration the each time it rains, at ANY grocer they are going to have those signs everywhere to protect you and themselves.
Speaking of rain, did you ever consider how much snowfall lakewood, CO gets?
Yes, it’s a silly story. But it’s also surprising that their roof is leaking so badly so soon after construction.
