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 Justin New roof and cracked/split plywood https://talkroofing.com/t/new-roof-and-cracked-split-plywood/26686/19 Roofing.com - Latest posts urn:uuid:98114853-29b1-57e6-7335-fce99a6adb2b Fri, 16 Apr 2021 09:23:38 -0400 <p>“Assuming the problem is legitimate “ is the key phrase that you always omit in your rush to always provide free stuff. 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> @Tileman New roof and cracked/split plywood https://talkroofing.com/t/new-roof-and-cracked-split-plywood/26686/18 Roofing.com - Latest posts urn:uuid:514099e0-1eab-4984-d4da-38565610df74 Fri, 16 Apr 2021 08:59:39 -0400 <p>(post withdrawn by author, will be automatically deleted in 24 hours unless flagged)</p> @Ivoman New roof and cracked/split plywood https://talkroofing.com/t/new-roof-and-cracked-split-plywood/26686/17 Roofing.com - Latest posts urn:uuid:b4bddf16-4819-6608-9569-88ba73be7b26 Thu, 15 Apr 2021 22:42:52 -0400 <p>And I would agree with that strategy. Explain things in an honest and reasonable manner first. 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> @Tileman New roof and cracked/split plywood https://talkroofing.com/t/new-roof-and-cracked-split-plywood/26686/16 Roofing.com - Latest posts urn:uuid:83bdc219-e34c-1e4d-4a8c-3ffa901c8893 Thu, 15 Apr 2021 20:21:35 -0400 <p>If it were my roof would i have them pull it up?

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> <p>Nice chatting with you again …</p> @Ivoman New roof and cracked/split plywood https://talkroofing.com/t/new-roof-and-cracked-split-plywood/26686/9 Roofing.com - Latest posts urn:uuid:26a641b6-591b-d008-ed82-341bfe9f4a4a Wed, 14 Apr 2021 23:13:00 -0400 <p>Sorry, hit reply prematurely. 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.
