Animal Foundation Expansion

Project Overview

As part of Clark County’s $39 million investment to expand and modernize animal care services, the Animal Foundation in Las Vegas added a new 40,000-square-foot facility aimed at increasing intake capacity and enhancing emergency response operations. Dri Tech was selected to provide roofing and architectural sheet metal services, delivering a durable, efficient building envelope to support the shelter’s critical mission.

Services Delivered

This expansion project required roofing and metal work tailored to a high-occupancy, service-driven facility. Challenges included:

Our Approach

Dri Tech worked closely with the general contractor and design team to deliver a roofing system that balances longevity, thermal performance, and cost efficiency. A single-ply membrane was selected for its proven performance in high-traffic, high-sun environments like Las Vegas.

To complement the roof system, our architectural sheet metal division fabricated and installed custom flashing, coping, and wall metal details. These elements not only ensured watertight protection but also contributed to the building’s clean, modern appearance. All work was executed with a focus on timeline, safety, and long-term value for the County and the community.

Results

Dri Tech’s contribution helped bring the Animal Foundation’s expansion to life with a secure, high-performing roof and envelope. The finished facility enhances shelter capacity and resilience—enabling better outcomes for animals and faster response during emergencies.

This project reflects Dri Tech’s strength in delivering civic-focused construction solutions with precision and care.
