<p>Now have them tear off ALL the ridge vent on that ridge.<br>
Fix, replace wood All the way across that ridge.<br>
Why? Because all their ridge vent and shingle cap nails are hitting directly into that tiny little sheeting strip<br>
They should have cut the plywood back and replaced it back at least one foot. ( others will claim more)</p>
<p>Horrible work,<br>
So<br>
Sorry to see…<br>
Replace the shingles underneath the ridge vents also.</p>
<p>These roofers are about to learn something.</p>
<p>Remove all the shingles above 13 1/4 inches from the ridge on that one side.<br>
Install one foot strips of wood.<br>
You will get 32 feet with one sheet.</p>
<p>The split wood you originally thought was a problem is really not.<br>
But nailing ridge vent directly into where two sheets meet IS a problem, a big one.</p> @roof_lover SingletrackinNew roof and cracked/split plywood

urn:uuid:d80cd582-eb36-b6ae-4b4a-ce571c5902dcFri, 16 Apr 2021 09:36:10 -0400 <p>You will probably not be able to get a material rep out unless they used mulehide or another store brand. Flat roof manufacturer’s won’t warrant their products beyond a material only warranty on residences.</p>
<p>The specs call for any wrinkle over 1/2" to be cut out and patched with a slider you make from field membrane and splice tape.</p>
<p>The wrinkles are from a combination of probably not allowing the glue to flash and just being bad.</p>
<p>If he glued over asphalt it could also cause wrinkles as epdm bonding adhesive dissolves asphalt. This means no adhesion and asphalt and rubber should not be left in direct contact as over time the asphalt eats the rubber up.</p>
<p>The seams are covered with a flashing roll or cover tape. Cover tape is not stretchy and should be used to cover the drip edge flange and seams. If it is stretchy it is flashing and can be used over seams but is not as good, and should not be used over drip edge flanges.</p>
<p>This flashing is pressure sensitive and only needs to have the membrane primed and rolled in. However the correct way to do a seam is with seam tape between the lap. Hard to tell if he did a proper seam below the cover tape he put on.</p>
<p>Ponding water and EPDM do not mix. Constant ponding will destroy your seams and peel off the cover tape in a couple years. The water sitting in the sun and heating up and sitting on the membrane is the primary cause for this. It will also bake the membrane and cause it to get brittle prematurely.</p>
<p>Then if you have 3" of standing water that is thousands of lbs weight on a compromised structure. I hope no one lives under that space. A 10x10 area with 3" deep water is holding almost 500 gallons of water at close to 4000 lbs.</p>
<p>I hope you are ready to spend some money. The roof needs to be removed, bad wood fixed, and the ponding issue needs addressed by either framing a slope into the roof or using tapered insulation. You have a safety issue if you think you have a broken rafter holding that much water.</p> @Dtris JustinNew roof and cracked/split plywood

We would tear off an entire roof of ours if done incorrectly and have done so after installing the wrong color before. We have ALWAYS made our mistakes right without any need for combat or even tension, and we part with our customers amicably on every job. The point I’m making that the student of human nature doesn’t grasp, is that I don’t honor unreasonable requests if our work is done properly. By the way our reputation is golden in our area and our customers love us. Yes, when a customer mistakenly thinks we dinged his gutter I will usually fix it if I forgot to take before pictures. No I will not jump through unnecessary hoops to placate someone trying to get something for free. Worked really well for me all these years. When you’re ready for my class send me a couple hundred bucks and I’ll sign you up. It will teach you how to have a spine and control your customers properly while still getting great reviews and references.</p> @TilemanNew roof and cracked/split plywood

If the customer is dead set on a minor repair then we would always do it. Some people (no names mentioned) just capitulate to every request and it is absolutely not necessary to establish a great reputation. There are a lot of passive/aggressive people (again no names mentioned) who feel whole by boxing a contractor in and winning a meaningless battle that costs the contractor money and does not improve the quality of the job. I am so thankful that we don’t have to validate our existence by sucking up to an unreasonable customer to get them to approve of our top notch work on social media. The only bad reviews we have after 25 years in business are based on me or one of my trucks cutting someone off in traffic (they deserved it) or some jerkoff neighbor of one of our jobsites who got woke up and complained saying “the owner is extremely rude”, which is also true.</p> @TilemanNew roof and cracked/split plywood

I have been a student of human nature for far many more years than I care to recall. Pick the battles worth fighting and be intelligent enough to recognize the ones that are not worth it. Petty skirmishes leave lasting residue that resurfaces when you least expect it and at the most inopportune times. Nobody gives a crap at how hard anyone works, or what they proclaim to have done when they are dismissed as a nuisance who is trivial and whiney. A customer is your customer and the privilege granted you through compensation and opportunity should never forgotten. Taking a small step to help them feel assured yields far better outcomes than being a belligerent self inflated prima donna who refuses to budge at the risk of bruising their fragile ego.</p>

I agree about making sure every customer is satisfied when we leave but if you fall into this rhythm of customer always being right without showing any spine you will always be subservient to them and will become a victim to everyone threatening a bad review. Never read a book on “how to close the deal”! but we leave every job with a great review/referral waiting for us, even when we had to resolve conflict.I don’t ever have to kowtow to some passive/aggressive asshat. Reward for all those bundles and hot tar buckets I hauled up ladders I guess.
