It is difficult to tell from the photos and is probably more evident in person. I’ve attached a copy the signed COC which you will need to include in your building permit application. If your contractor is doing the permitting for you, they will need a copy to upload to the permit portal. Would you like the original COC mailed to you or would you like to come pick it up at our office? This is for your records. Thanks, Hannah Ratzlaff Urban Designer Planning & Development, 723 W.

FYI the porch roof though it is quite old hasn’t failed (thank goodness). We are replacing proactively so we are not working of a very worn surface. It has a good slope away from the house as it is. I will research appropriate decking options to protect the new roof. Thanks so much. Any idea how long it might take from here?

My assumption is that they would add an additional layer/product that would be better suited for foot traffic, perhaps a wood floor or something that would simulate a wood deck floor. My concern is that the current system doesn’t work, so why replicate it? Also, I would consider adding a bit of a build up (slight slope), if possible, to the system and drip edges so that water doesn’t pool at the back against the exterior masonry of the house or would create a water stain from the flashing (as it does now). Instead, it would run off the sides and front of the deck, away from the structure. I will put a qualifier in the COC so that it allows for flexibility in the decking solution to work out with the contractor but would not allow the contractor to disregard the potential issue. Please see attached and let me know how this looks. Thanks, Hannah Ratzlaff Urban Designer Planning & Development, 723 W.

I definitely want it walkable. I guess I need to do some research but do not wish to hold up this process. Any suggestions are welcome.

Is this the roofing system that is there currently? 4 2. Traditionally, modified bitumen systems would require an extra product application when the roof is also used as a deck. The surface generally isn’t “walkable”. Is there an additional product your roofer plans to put on top of the modified system, like pavers?
