[12] STEEL ROOF IN NORTH VANCOUVER B.C. |
|
HERE ARE SOME OF THE EXCLUSIONS TRISTAR USES, WHEN IT COMES TO APPLYING SHINGLES ON A LOW SLOPE ROOF.
-NEVER LESS THAN 3/12 PITCH
-NEVER OVERTOP OF SHIPLAP
-NEVER ON A ROOF WITH VALLEYS
-NEVER IN HIGH WIND AREAS
-NEVER UNDER TREES WHERE MOSS WILL GROW
|
|
 |
THIS ROOF WAS INSTALLED BY AN ESTABLISHED ROOFING MANAGEMENT COMPANY. IT ONLY LASTED 7 YEARS BEFORE LEAKING.
|
|
|
 |
THE OWNER COVERED MOST OF THE ROOF IN PLASTIC TO STOP THE LEAKS.
|
|
|
 |
THE LEAKS CAUSED SEVERE STAINING TO THE CEDAR CEILINGS. THE ROOFING COMPANY WOULD NOT ACKNOWLEGE THE PROBLEM, AND HONOR THEIR WARRANTY.
|
|
|
 |
IT'S RISKY BUSINESS, INSTALLING SHINGLES ON LOW SLOPES. THERE WERE NUMEROUS MISTAKES MADE HERE.
1-TOO LOW OF A PITCH, < 2/12
2-PLYWOOD OVER SHIPLAP REQ'D
3-MOSS GROWTH CAUSED LEAKAGE
|
|
|
 |
EVEN PREMIUM PEEL AND STICK MEMBRANE, WASN'T ENOUGH SECONDARY PRORECTION, TO PREVENT LEAKAGE. THE SHINGLES BUCKLED AND LIFTED DUE TO THE SHIPLAP SUBSTRATE.
|
|
|
 |
THE MEMBRANE WAS ADHERED TO THE ROOFDECK, SO WE SLASHED IT WITH OUR KNIVES, AND SHEETED OVER WITH PLYWOOD.
|
|
|
 |
THE ROOFDECK WAS COVERED IN DECKARMOUR PREMIUM BREATHABLE UNDERLAYMENT.
|
|
|
 |
WE ROLLFORMED THE ROOF PANELS ON SITE. THE COLOR CHOSEN WAS CHARCOAL.
|
|
|
 |
TRISTAR'S LOW MAINTENANCE METAL ROOF SYSTEM, SHOULD LAST A LIFETIME OR MORE.
|
|
|
 |
THE CUSTOMER WAS SUPER PLEASED WITH THE OVERALL PRESENTATION.
|
|
|
 |
WE INSTALLED OUR LOW MAINTENANCE LEAFPRO GUTTER SYSTEM, TO COMPLIMENT THE ROOF.
