When I was called to take a look at a roof leak in tswassan, I got excited....yes it doesn't take much. I like the area, it has an incredible view of the waterfront and the ferry terminal. I had already been there before so I knew where the leak was. When we started to take the old roof off the deck underneath was considerably rotted. The more we ripped off the more I didn't like. The rot had traveled up to the support beams and into the the pitched roof. Well as you can imagine the owner wasn't happy to see that much damage but was happy we could fix it. Finally halfway through the day we got all the rot out and started to install some new wood. Once the new wood was in place it was tarp time untill the next day. Now when we quoted the job we were only going to do the flat roof with the skylight, but what actually had to be done do to the rot was the flat roof, the pitched roof and the small skirt above. The cost on this was alot, but when you run into this much rot you have no choice. On day two we finally got to the roofing part of the job. The pitched roof had a 20 year BP Coco Tan T-lock on it. That was the product that we went with so it would blend with the older parts of the roof. The color was really close even though the older roof was about 7 years old. For the flat roof we installed an IKO Fiberglass base, IKO 180 SBS plain and an IKO 180 SBS Cap. Re flashed the perimeter and it was done. I took in another view of the water front and I was on to the next job.
