ROOFING REQUIREMENTS
RE-ROOFING IN
INCLEMENT WEATHER CONDITIONS
To assist and assure that the roofing contractor is able to maintain
integrity of a re-roof project preformed between the time period of October
15 through April 15 of each calendar year, the procedure for inspection of
the nailing of the roof sheathing will be as follows:
- No tear-off inspection will be required during the above referenced time
frame.
- During the above listed time frame, the Roofing Contractor shall submit
on company letterhead a statement that either the roof had no dryrot or
water damage to be removed, or dryrot or water damage was observed and
removed. The contractor shall also provide a hand drawn sketch of the roof
of that particular house and identify the location where the dryrot or
water damage was removed and replaced. The letter shall be signed and the
name of the signer printed on the letter.
- The contractor may proceed with installing the roof sheathing as per
City of San Ramon requirements.
- Felt paper may then be installed over roof sheathing to insure
watertight integrity of the dwelling.
- Additionally, ½ square of roofing material shall be installed. Upon
completion, call for tearoff, nailing and in progress inspections.
- At time of inspection request, the contractor letter verifying the
condition of the existing sheathing is required to be on site or delivered
to the inspector. The roofing personnel shall pullback the felt paper in
random areas as identified by the inspector. Should the roofing personnel
not be on the site at the time of inspection, the inspector shall pull
back the felt in enough areas (3 or 4) to be able to inspect for proper
nailing of the roof sheathing materials.
