🎉 Kicking off 2025 with a milestone worth celebrating: Burt Dougharty’s incredible 20-year journey with W. R. MEADOWS! 🎉 Over the years, Burt has worn many hats. He began his career with us in 2005 as a Traffic Supervisor for 5 years, then he served as Operations, Purchasing, & Production Supervisor for eight years, before taking on his current role as Operations Manager for our Georgia branch, overseeing daily operations and personnel. Reflecting on his time here, Burt shared that after just two years, he knew W. R. MEADOWS was where he wanted to grow his career. He credits the W. R. MEADOWS family and company’s overall support, as well as, advice from his former GM, Ron Miracle, who said, “If it was easy, anyone could do it,” as key to his success. Burt was recently awarded his W. R. MEADOWS' 20-year anniversary pin by Cindy Elrod, Administrator for our Georgia Branch, in recognition of this great milestone! When he’s not leading the team, Burt and his wife love camping trips across the Southeast—a passion they’ve embraced now that their daughters are grown. Please join us in congratulating Burt on 20 years of hard work and dedication! Here’s to many more milestones ahead! 🏆 #wrmeadows #manufacturing #careers #workanniversary #construction #buildingmaterials #anniversarycelebration #employeespotlight #constructionsupplies #operations

🚧 Project Spotlight: Fishermen’s Terminal, Maritime Innovation Center 🚧 An extraordinary blend of history and innovation is taking shape in Seattle! The Fishermen’s Terminal, Maritime Innovation Center is undergoing a groundbreaking transformation. Here's what makes this project truly remarkable: To preserve the building's historic charm while creating a modern interior, the entire outer shell was lifted and moved aside, a brand-new waterproofed basement was constructed, and the shell was returned to its original position. Talk about innovation meeting preservation! Rain wasn’t an obstacle thanks to our reliable PRECON underslab waterproofing. Unlike clay or Bentonite-based products, PRECON performs exceptionally well even when exposed to rain, ensuring seamless horizontal application without swelling. This forward-thinking project features a suite of W. R. MEADOWS products designed for superior performance: ✔️ PRECON – trusted underslab waterproofing ✔️ PERMINATOR – unmatched vapor barrier ✔️ MEL-ROL LM – seamless waterproofing ✔️ POINTING MASTIC – durable joint sealing ✔️ MEL-ROL – reliable below-grade waterproofing ✔️ MEL-DRAIN – efficient drainage and moisture management Project Team: 📐 Architect: The Miller Hull Partnership, LLP 🏗️ General Contractor: FORMA Construction Company 🛠️ Subcontractor: Insulpro Projects We’re honored to see our solutions play a key role in creating a space that supports Seattle’s thriving maritime industry while respecting its rich history. Stay tuned for more updates as this extraordinary project unfolds! 🌊⚓ #wrmeadows #waterproofing #buildingenvelope #buildingenclosure #construction #sustainablebuilding #concrete #manufacturing #buildingmaterials #consructionsupplies
