(Attached email in pdf form.) I had to read through all of the prior emails to catch myself up on this. it has been months. See paragraph from Paul on March 13, 2018 email: I looked at the Grand Manor shingles on the CertainTeed website and the texture and design will complement the fish scale and diamond shaped shingles on the walls of the house quite nicely. On the estimate Jared prepared, the 4th bullet point about inspecting the sidewall and headwall flashings and repair/replace as needed doesn’t have a metal type specified. Thom, I saw in your email to Brian that the house has copper flashings now (durable and long lived) but the metal type isn’t specified on the estimate for any replacement pieces needed. I would ask your roofer to articulate copper on that on the estimate. Also with aluminum flashings for the plumbing vent stacks involved, I would also ask about the fastener types they plan to use. Aluminum fasteners should be used on the plumbing vent stack flashings, and on the copper flashings, copper, brass or stainless steel fasteners should be used to avoid galvanic corrosion. Galvanized steel fasteners will corrode with copper flashings so be sure to ask your roofer about the fastener type they plan to use. I also concur with Brian’s request to see the aluminum drip edge match either the shingles or the fascia, depending on how it is mounted. This is my modified test for the signoff. Please approve or delete the text in red. Project Description with Conditions listed: 1) Chimney Caps a) Chimney flues will be capped with a flat metal cap, not visible from the street, to deep bats from entering flue and the house. b) Material should be painted or treated to prevent rust. 2) Roofing a) Remove multiple layers of asphalt roofing and/or additional layers of roofing materials. b) Repair decking with boards of same thickness, (plywood, chipboard, or 1x boards for decking.) c) Drip edge may be installed. Paint exposed edge to match fascia. d) Gutters may be removed and replaced if necessary for roof installation. e) No changes will be made to the roof pitches, gables, or valleys. f) Reroof with shingles in same pattern as before. g) A new roof ornament will be fabricated to match the other gables scrolls and will be installed on the uppermost gable. 3) Painting on rear wall of house, front steps, front porch and back steps a) Scrape areas. b) Apply one coat of primer, and two coats of paint.
