Back River Wastewater Treatment Plant Metal Panels

The Back River Wastewater Treatment Plant is one of the largest wastewater facilities on the East Coast, serving the City of Baltimore and surrounding areas for over a century. As part of a major capital improvement program led by the Baltimore Department of Public Works, Kalkreuth was selected by prime contractor Clark Construction to deliver a critical component of the facility’s infrastructure upgrade: standing seam metal roofing and metal wall panel systems across key process and support structures.

Work of this scale demands precision, coordination, and an unwavering focus on safety. That’s especially true on a facility that never stops running. Kalkreuth’s crews worked alongside multiple trades in an active industrial environment. They installed durable, weather-tight metal roofing and architectural wall panel systems. These systems were engineered to withstand the corrosive, high-humidity conditions inherent to wastewater treatment operations. The result is a building envelope built for long-term performance. It protects essential mechanical and process equipment while contributing to the plant’s overall operational reliability for decades to come.

With a contract value of nearly $3 million, the Back River wastewater treatment plant roofing project reflects the scope and complexity of work Kalkreuth regularly delivers for municipal and heavy industrial clients. The team delivers on technically demanding envelope systems, installed on time and to spec, on projects where failure is not an option.
