Learn how this four-person crew completed 8,300 square feet of roof in 10 days.  

A lot happened at the Spray Polyeurathane Foam Alliance (SPFA) annual convention and expo in February 2025. From riveting educational sessions to fun networking events, The Coffee Shops™ crew had a great time attending. Amongst everything that was taking place, SPFA also presented their National Industry Excellence Awards. These awards “honor SPFA contractor members for their innovative, trail-blazing projects.” There are seven different categories for awards, including elastomeric roof coatings which was won by United Thermal Systems (UTS).

UTS, based in Niagara Falls, New York, is a certified New York State Woman-Owned Business Enterprise that focuses on spray foam insulation, roofing, coatings, spray applied fireproofing, specialized coatings and spray acoustic insulation. Since their founding in 2011, UTS has completed countless projects for commercial and industrial clients in the Western New York region. This particular award-winning project was done for the Monroe Country Water Authority (MCWA).

MCWA was assessing their county's municipal water intake pumping station and realized that the concrete structure needed a refresh. They made the proactive team decision that a silicone roof coating system with granules was the best solution for their needs. That’s where UTS’s four-person crew (Michael Dupere, Jr., Luis Carmona, Jefferson Monahan and Keith Myles) came into the picture.  

The result? Monroe County will now have an easier time maintaining their structures and can rest easy without worrying about leaking. Thanks to Gaco, they also have a 20-year warranty on the system that can be renewed indefinitely with the proper maintenance.
