First Baptist Chinese Church Roofing Project
Single Ply Roofing Experts completed 18,000 square feet of new construction roofing for First Baptist Chinese Church in Fountain Valley, CA. The project required close coordination with the active construction schedule while installing roofing across multiple roof sections, elevations, penetrations, and rooftop details on the new facility.

Overview
18,000 Sq. Ft. New Construction Roofing for First Baptist Chinese Church in Fountain Valley, CA
A new building gives the roofing system one important opportunity: get every detail right from the beginning.
For the new First Baptist Chinese Church facility in Fountain Valley, California, Single Ply Roofing Experts completed approximately 18,000 square feet of new construction roofing across a large, multi-section building.
Aerial project photography shows a roof with multiple levels, perimeter conditions, penetrations, mechanical components, and transitions that all had to be incorporated into the roofing system while the rest of the property remained under construction.
Unlike a roof replacement, new construction roofing must stay closely aligned with the overall build. Roofing work intersects with framing, mechanical equipment, drainage, electrical components, exterior finishes, and other trades moving through their own schedules.
For this project, the focus was not simply covering 18,000 square feet. It was creating a complete commercial low-slope roofing system that fit the building, the construction sequence, and the details designed into the new facility.
The result demonstrates the level of coordination required for commercial new construction roofing in Fountain Valley and Orange County, particularly on larger institutional and community properties.

The challenge
New construction roofing rarely happens on an empty, finished structure. The aerial view of First Baptist Chinese Church shows an active construction site, with framing, exterior work, equipment, and multiple trades operating around the building. At the same time, the roofing system had to progress across approximately 18,000 square feet of roof area. The roof itself is far from one uninterrupted surface. Different elevations, roof sections, equipment curbs, penetrations, drainage areas, perimeter edges, and transitions create numerous details that must work together as part of the finished assembly. That creates a coordination challenge. Roofing components need to be installed at the right stage of construction. Penetrations and curbs need to align with other building systems. Completed roof areas need to be protected as additional trades continue working nearby. The challenge was therefore to deliver a precise roof installation while remaining synchronized with the larger construction project and maintaining consistency across every section of the roof.
The solution
Single Ply Roofing Experts completed the 18,000-square-foot new construction roof installation by treating each roof area as part of one coordinated system. The team worked across the building's different roof sections while addressing penetrations, transitions, perimeter conditions, drainage areas, and rooftop components as construction progressed. Careful coordination helped integrate the roofing work with the broader project rather than allowing the roof to become an afterthought at the end of the build. That approach is especially important for institutional and commercial new construction. A properly planned roofing installation allows the roof deck, insulation, membrane, flashing, penetrations, drainage, and perimeter details to function together from the beginning. For developers, general contractors, construction managers, and institutional property owners, the First Baptist Chinese Church project demonstrates why specialized flat and low-slope roofing experience matters during new construction. When the building is being built from the ground up, the roof should be planned with the same level of care. Planning a commercial or institutional construction project in Orange County?
