Restroom with Roof Extension at Johnston Commons Park – Johnston, IA

Johnston is a city in Iowa about 10 miles northwest of Des Moines, the capital of the state.

The City of Johnston is in Polk County with a population of about 24,000 people and sits within the Des Moines Metropolitan Area. Camp Dodge, a military reservation, is located in Johnston.

The Des Moines River runs through the city and provides recreational opportunities like Sycamore Park and Johnston Soccer Complex.

Not far from the Des Moines River is Johnston Commons Park which is a 14-acre neighborhood park near the local library. The Johnston Commons is the location of the Johnston Public LibrarySimpson Barn, and Johnston Station Historical Society (museum).

The park is home to a basketball court, soccer fields, a playground, picnic tables, grassy areas, two small ponds, and a shelter.

The owner of Johnston Commons Park is the City of Johnston who requested a Romtec restroom building with a roof extension.

The Model 1621 Romtec restroom features two unisex single user restrooms, a family room, a mechanical room, a 24′ roof extension, stainless steel counterlimestone siding, fiber cement lap siding, and a standing seam metal roof.

The landscape architect was Snyder & Associates who was the project driver for this project. The owner and Snyder & Associates worked directly with Romtec to select the options for the building and approve the layout and design requirements. Snyder is a civil engineer with an office in Iowa.

Lansink Construction was the general contractor who built the building for the City of Johnston. Lansink is a general contractor based out of Johnston, Iowa.

Romtec was happy to provide the design and supply of this unique restroom building with a roof extension that provides shelter for a picnic area that can be used as an event space or for parties. Romtec designed this building to match the beautiful surrounding area that is Johnston Commons Park.

We had an awesome experience with Romtec and were very pleased (especially) about the communication that was given to us. The project went by very smoothly and we are now off to our next adventures. The finished product was everything and more that was promised by Romtec.

That Memorial Park Project is one of our favorites too – it truly made a positive impact for our visitors, and we will continue to keep Romtec in mind as opportunities to collaborate come up!

I have to mention that aside from the products Romtec supplies and the workmanship of the subcontractors (Ken and crew), I’m also very impressed with your responsiveness to issues – you’re a far cry from the usual taillight warranty.

You get what you pay for. Romtec provided the most perfect, seamless, flawless project I could have imagined. I would use Romtec 100 times over and will not consider any other options moving forward. You were able to beat my original budget and expectations. Everyone involved was great from sales to construction management, to the construction team themselves.

I was actually out today looking at the baseball park and your building is absolutely awesome.  Our buddy and all star baseball families are going to love it!

We were very impressed with Romtec on this project. The entire team was professional, forward thinking, wiling to collaborate and compromise, and the structure turned out beautiful. We definitely got what we paid for (and then some!).

Ken Perry’s crew who installed it did a fantastic job, very organized and professional, and efficient install.

If I were to do this again, I would no doubt hire Romtec and its subcontractors to do the installation. Hindsight is always 20/20 and I learned a valuable lesson that I will hire Romtec’s certified installers to do the construction.

I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Dan Keagy (Romtec’s assistant construction manager). He in my opinion went above and beyond to solve our problems and problems that were not necessarily his or Romtec’s to solve. He is a great guy and great resource for Romtec. Overall, the biggest thing to me was the service after the sale. Romtec didn’t just make the sale and move on, but they supported us through a very long and arduous construction process.

Romtec was phenomenal when it came to service after the sale. They were available anytime there were questions. In addition, there were some issues with missing materials. Even though it was not Romtec’s fault for the missing materials, the were more than willing to send us the missing materials to get the project done. Romtec even sent out a representative to tour the site to give firsthand recommendations on how to proceed.
