This work will include the removal of the existing 3-tab asphalt shingles and any underlayment down to the decking, repair to any deteriorated wood decking or steel decking, install a continuous layer of self-adhered waterproofing underlayment, and installation of heavy-duty architectural grade asphalt shingles complete with new metal flashings. 2.

At Roof Area Nos. 1 & 3, the existing attic spaces are presently being used as storage for desk chairs, shelving, and file storage. A structural analysis of the attic framing was not within the scope of this project, and it is not recommended that storage within these areas be increased. We are investigating possible measures to increase the insulation in these areas, while allowing the current storage to stay in place. 5. At Roof Area Nos. 2 & 4, install blown in fiberglass insulation on top of the existing (~R30) fiberglass batt insulation, in order to achieve an R-Value of 49. 6. At Roof Area Nos. 5 & 7, verify that the existing batt insulation (~R44) has not been disturbed, and install blown in fiberglass insulation on top of the existing fiberglass batt insulation, in order to achieve an R-Value of 49. 7. Install louvers on dormers at Roof Area No. 2 (where noted on the drawings) in place of existing windows to increase ventilation. All existing louvers should be verified to ensure that air is free flowing. 8. Cut in and install ridge vents at Roof Area Nos. 2, 4, 5, & 7 along the entire length of the ridge. 9. Remove and replace existing gutters along roof eaves. Gutter width to be increased from 3" to 5" and 6" where noted on the drawings. Downspouts will be reused. Damaged sections of downspouts will be removed and replaced. Install cleanouts at ground level (where lacking) to allow easier cleaning of underground drainage system. The underground drainage system will be water jetted. 10. Remove and replace all step flashing where rake edge(s) intersects walls, dormers, cupola, and at the chimney. 11. The existing wooden fascia at eave and rake edges shall remain and be reused. The existing wood fascia at eaves and rake edges shall be resecured as required.

The existing tongue and groove wood siding at the base of the cupola will be removed to allow installation of new step flashing and counterflashing. The existing tongue and groove wood siding will be replaced with new (painted to match color of cupola) 13. Remove vinyl siding and trim on all dormers to allow for proper step and counterflashing installation. The existing wood substrate behind where the vinyl siding was removed will be covered with a self-adhered underlayment and a new clapboard siding (color to match vinyl siding) 14.
