identified such conditions he shall promptly after becoming aware thereof (in any case not later

than ten (10) days), and before further disturbing conditions affected thereby or performing any

Work in connection therewith (except in an emergency), notify Owner and Consultant in writing

about such conditions. Contractor shall not further disturb such conditions or perform any work

in conjunction therewith except to return the roof and building to a temporarily watertight

3.07 PREPARATION OF SUBSTRATE


Roof Renovations


07100 - 12 8/14/2015

A. Preparation of the Roof substrate is the responsibility of the Installer. Installer shall

address and correct all of the conditions listed in this section. Examine substrates to

receive new roofing. Do not proceed with installation of the roof coating system

until unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected in a manner acceptable to the

manufacturer.

1. Treatment of excessive gaps: All large or excessive gaps existing between roof

panels must be closed or made flush with self-drilling fasteners. Closed-cell foam

strips or polyurethane foam may be used to pre-fill voids larger than 1/4 inch

before applying Flashing Grade. Foam shall be shaped with a utility knife or other

appropriate method to create a cant strip which facilitates both coating adhesion

and water drainage, as well as, prevents shearing of Flashing Fabric on metal

edges.

2. Installation of sheet metal crickets: Sheet metal crickets must be installed

according to manufacturer's specifications (minimum 26 gauge metal - heavier

gauge required for larger crickets) on the high side of all curb units. Vertical ribs

shall be cut a minimum of 2" from the cricket to allow both the cricket flanges to

mount flush to the metal panel and facilitate water drainage. Cut vertical ribs shall

then be treated in the same fashion as a void larger than a 1/4 inch. New crickets

shall be "sealed" by placing a continuous bead of FlexSeal under the flanges

before they are mechanically attached to the curb unit and metal roof panel. Then,

the cricket flanges must be stitch-screwed to the curb unit and metal roof panel

while the FlexSeal is still wet using approved fasteners. This procedure shall

apply to installation of all new crickets and curbs.

3. Treatment of Ponding Water Areas: Installer shall make every effort to

mechanically eliminate all ponding water areas on the roof prior to application of

Topcoat® products. Ponding water is defined as water which does not properly

drain and remains on the roof surface for more than 48 hours after precipitation

stops. Ponding water areas which cannot be eliminated shall be treated with

FlexSeal LV prior to application of other Topcoat® products.

4. Repair of Dented / Damaged Panels: Installer shall repair dented and/or damaged

metal roof panels. Dents shall be mechanically removed to the maximum extent

possible. If ribs are broken, Installer shall cover the broken rib area with a sheet

metal cap. Sheet metal rib caps must be sealed to the roof by applying Flashing

Grade over the entire broken rib area to be capped prior to attaching the cap with

approved fasteners. Then, Flashing Grade shall be used to seal all the newly

created rib cap seams and fasteners. Should roof panels be severely damaged,

installer shall remove and replace damaged areas prior to application of coating

products.

5. Replacement of Fasteners: All fasteners must be replaced. All fasteners must be

replaced with larger diameter fasteners, All missing fasteners must be replaced. In

evaluating a roofing substrate for the application of the Coating System, it is

important to note the manner in which the roof is fastened. The fastening pattern


Roof Renovations


07100 - 13 8/14/2015

may require modification to facilitate the proper installation of the system which

may include adding additional fasteners.

6. Thorough Cleaning / Removal of Existing Paints and Coatings: Metal substrate

must be pressure-washed with water. A minimum working pressure of 3,000 psi

shall be used to remove all delaminating paint and coatings dirt, dust, and waste

products (oil, oil-based roof cements, solvents, grease, animal fats, etc.). A Roto-

spray tip is required to expedite metal panel cleaning. All existing silicone-based

sealants must be completely removed from roof substrate prior to application of

Topcoat® products. In some cases, a sand injection system may be required

during the pressure washing to obtain proper adhesion for coating products. When

encountering roof substrates that have living organisms such as algae, mold or

fungus, a bleach solution must be used to kill and remove these organisms during

the roof cleaning.

7. Treatment of Residual Asphalt: Installer shall make every effort to remove

asphaltic roofing elements. Removal efforts must include use of methods such as

pressure washing, scrapers, wire brushes, electric drill wire-wheels, or other

similar tools. Residual asphalt is defined as asphaltic material remaining after the

exercise of all required removal efforts, and exists when there is asphaltic material

greater in thickness than 3 mils over an area greater than 1 square foot. Residual

asphalt shall be treated with manufacturer’s approved asphalt primer. Apply

manufacturer’s approved asphalt primer to the entire asphaltic area to be treated.

8. Treatment of Rust Areas: All rust areas must be treated with manufacturer’s rust

inhibitor to prevent further deterioration of the metal roof panels. Roof panels that

are corroded to the point where they have holes must be replaced. Prior to

manufacturer’s rust inhibitor application, remove all loose, flaking or powdery rust

by wire brushing if it has not been removed during the pressure washing. All rust

shall be completely covered by the manufacturer’s rust inhibitor. A second coat of

the manufacturer’s rust inhibitor is required for heavily rusted roof panel areas.

Since manufacturer’s rust inhibitor is designed to adhere to rust, only rusted areas

shall be addressed with the product. Installer must exercise special care when

applying the manufacturer’s rust inhibitor in high temperature conditions

(substrates approaching 120°F). Substrate temperatures must be kept below 120°F

when applying the manufacturer’s rust inhibitor. Areas where rust is very heavy on

roof panels shall be treated with two (2) applications of the manufacturer’s rust

inhibitor. The second application of the manufacturer’s rust inhibitor is only

required on heavily rusted areas. This will help prevent rust bleed-through after

roof panels have been properly prepared in accordance with manufacturer’s

specifications. Roof panels which are corroded to the point where holes are

present must be replaced.

9. Preparation of Test Patches: Installer shall prepare no less than three (3) test

patches for all questionable roof substrates (Kynar®-500 or other fluoropolymers,

coatings which contain silicone, etc.) to verify adhesion of coating products.


Roof Renovations


07100 - 14 8/14/2015

Minimum test patch size shall be one (1) square foot. After the test patches have

been applied, allow at least one week of drying time before checking adhesion.

Check adhesion by slicing an "X" (approx. 6" in size) near the center of the test

patch. Then try to remove the coating material at the center of the "X" with a

spatula. Test patches shall be labeled and photographed to document adhesion test

results. Installer shall consult with the Manufacturer’s Contractor Services

Department concerning all results.

10. Priming of Pre-Finished Metal Panels: Where roof panel surfaces are known or

suspected to contain Kynar®-500, other fluoropolymers or silicone, test patches

shall be prepared with and without the use of Topcoat® XR-2000. Based on test

patch adhesion results, Installer shall apply XR-2000 on pre-finished metal panels

per specifications. Please note that since XR-2000 has rust inhibiting properties,

Topcoat® MP-300 is not required where XR-2000 has been used.

11. Pitch Pans: For most situations, pitch pans shall be capped with sheet metal so

they can be sealed with Topcoat® products. Contact Manufacturer’s Contractor

Services Department for more information.

12. Neoprene Pipe Boots: Install neoprene boots prior to flashing work being

performed for certain types of pipe penetrations. Neoprene boots must first be

sealed to the roof using a bead of FlexSeal prior to mechanical attachment with

approved fasteners. Contact Manufacturer’s Contractor Services Department for

more information.

13. Open Ridge Vents: Open ridge vents (as shown in detail drawings) may begin to

corrode on the inside, and over time, may leak. Manufacturer’s highly recommend

either replacement or the installation of sheet metal caps over the open ridge vents

when they are rusted on the inside and/or located in a harsh environment (e.g., salt

water areas). Sheet metal caps shall be installed when leaks are suspected from

the vents. Installation of a cap on the ridge vent will prevent water entry while

allowing air to continue to flow through the vent. Do not seal weep holes on the

vents. Inadequate roof ventilation may cause blistering in the Topcoat® roofing

system due to inside air “blowing-out” through roof panel seams. When this

condition occurs, it ay not allow for proper curing of the Flashing Grade material

which may cause blisters.

3.08 INSTALLATION OF REPLACEMENT METAL ROOF PANELS

A. Examine existing roof surface and correct conditions detrimental to proper and timely

metal roof panel installation. Do not proceed with installation until unsatisfactory

conditions have been corrected.

B. Replace existing steel structural components where found to be corroded or damaged.

Install new steel components in accordance with the manufacturer’s latest written

installation instructions. Perform removal and/or replacement of existing metal roof and


Roof Renovations


07100 - 15 8/14/2015

wall panels as required.

C. Installation shall be performed in accordance with replacement metal roof panel

manufacturer’s latest written installation instructions.

D. Secure metal roof panels with approved fasteners at the low and high ends and sidelaps

in accordance with the replacement metal roof panels latest written installation

instructions.

3.09 FLASHING APPLICATION AND INSPECTION

A. Fasteners: All fasteners must be fully encapsulated in Fastener Grade, Flashing Grade or

FlexSeal. In some cases, brushing may be required to obtain the proper feathering

around fasteners. For fasteners found in the field of the roof (i.e., not at seams or roof

penetrations), use of FlexSeal in colder climates, and Fastener Grade in warmer / hot

climates.

B Gutter Straps: All gutter straps that are fastened above roof panels must be fully

encapsulated with Flashing Grade, including the fasteners.

C Vertical Seams:

1. Ribbed: All ribbed panel vertical seams must be sealed with Topcoat® Flashing

Grade or FlexSeal. Feather the Flashing Grade until seams are no longer visible

while brushing in the direction parallel to the seam.

2. Standing Seam: All standing vertical seams must be sealed with a ½” bead of

Topcoat® Flashing Grade or FlexSeal. Feather Flashing Grade until seams are

no longer visible while brushing in the direction parallel to the seam. (NOTE:

This does not apply to inverted “J” standing seams – see below for details on this

type of seam) Contact GAF’s Contractor Services Department for details on

specific standing seam panels.

3. Standing "T" Seam: Both vertical seams of the standing "T" must be flashed

with a ½” bead of Topcoat® Flashing Grade or FlexSeal brushed into the seams.

4. Inverted "J" Seam: In snowy climates and/or when roof leaks are suspected from

this type of vertical seam, Topcoat® requires re-crimping the short leg of the

seam all the way under the horizontal portion of the inverted "J" seam. Brush or

trowel apply Topcoat® Flashing Grade over the newly created single lock

vertical seam. Portable seamers may be used to perform the re-crimping.

5. Corrugated: All corrugated panel vertical seams must be sealed with Topcoat®

Flashing Grade or FlexSeal. Feather the Flashing Grade until the seams are no

longer visible while brushing in the direction parallel to the seam.


Roof Renovations


07100 - 16 8/14/2015

6. Batten: Both vertical seams of the batten must be flashed with a ½” bead of

Topcoat® Flashing Grade or FlexSeal. Feather Flashing Grade until the seams

are no longer visible while brushing in the direction parallel to the seam.

D Horizontal Seams: All horizontal seams must be reinforced with a layer of Flashing

Grade, one (1) layer of 6” Flashing Fabric and then a final layer of Flashing Grade to

completely encapsulate the Fabric. Flashing Grade must be feathered at least 1" beyond

each side of the 6" width to allow water to flow over the seam. Flashing Fabric must be

cut around all fasteners so it lies flat. For ribbed roof panels, the Flashing Fabric must

be applied over panel ribs in continuous lengths. A minimum 2" overlap is required for

all splices in Topcoat® Flashing Fabric. Horizontal seams must be secured with

approved fasteners on the high side of every other corrugation spaced no more than 6"

on center. When using Liquid Fabric Flashing Grade, the horizontal seam must be made

flush by installing two approved fasteners per flute as required by the manufacturer.

E Cinch Straps at Panel End laps: Re-tighten cinch straps, as necessary. Surround each

strap and fastener head with a bead of FlexSeal. Fully inject FlexSeal into the cinch

strap water channel to displace all air and moisture within the channel. Then seal the

entire lap, strap and fastener heads with a minimum 6" width of FlexSeal. Feather the

FlexSeal to prevent ponding water at the high side of the lap. The use of Flashing Fabric

is not required for cinch straps at panel end laps.

F Ridge Caps: Except as noted, all ridge caps must be flashed with a 6" or 12" width of

Flashing Fabric and Flashing Grade or FlexSeal. All voids and open areas in the ridge

cap must be filled with polyurethane foam prior to application of Flashing Fabric and

Flashing Grade or FlexSeal. In the case of metal "Z" closures which are located within

2" of the ridge cap edge, remove all exposed sealant and apply a liberal bead of Flashing

Grade to all sides of the "Z" closure where they intersect with both the roof panel and

ridge cap in accordance with the manufacturers requirements and as shown on the

drawings.

G Rakes: All fixed rake details for the roof must be secured and sealed with a 6"

minimum width of Flashing Grade or FlexSeal and Flashing Fabric. If fixed rake metal

is fastened to the top of roof panel ribs and extends back onto the roof, trim off any

excess metal and follow horizontal seam flashing procedures. All voids and open areas

must be filled with polyurethane foam prior to application of Flashing Fabric and

Flashing Grade or FlexSeal. For standing seam roof panels, contact Manufacturer’s

Contractor Services Department for information.

H Parapet Walls: All parapet wall details within the roof system must be secured and

sealed with a 6" minimum width of Flashing Grade or FlexSeal and Flashing Fabric. If

parapet wall flashing metal is fastened to the top of roof panel ribs and extends back


Roof Renovations


07100 - 17 8/14/2015

onto the roof, trim off any excess metal and follow horizontal seam flashing procedures.

All voids and open areas must be filled with polyurethane foam prior to application of

Flashing Fabric and Flashing Grade or FlexSeal. For standing seam roof panels, contact

Manufacturer’s Contractor Services Department for information.

I Curb Flashings: All curb flashings, including cricket details, must be flashed with at

least a 6" width of Flashing Fabric and Flashing Grade or FlexSeal. Encapsulate all

fasteners using Flashing Grade or FlexSeal. Do not bridge fasteners. Flashing Fabric

must be cut around all fasteners so the fabric lies flat.

J Penetrations: Flashing Grade or FlexSeal shall be applied around the base of all

penetrations, extending at least 4" onto the vertical and 4" onto the base. Embed a 6"

width of Flashing Fabric using additional Flashing Grade or FlexSeal, as necessary. Cut

Flashing Fabric to accommodate the shape of the penetration. Both the top and bottom

of neoprene pipe boots shall be flashed using Flashing Grade or FlexSeal and Flashing

Fabric as described above and as required by the manufacturer.

K Gutters: Trowel or brush apply FlexSeal to the interior or exterior gutters incorporating

6" Flashing Fabric at all gutter seams. Gutter must be completely clean and dry before

applying FlexSeal.

L Ponding Water Areas: Contact the Manufacturer’s Contractor Services Department for

information.

M Inspect Preliminary Work / Flashing Details for problem areas (e.g., gaps, cracks,

fishmouths, air pockets, etc.) to ensure that work is complete and satisfactory.

N Inform Project Architect and Contractor Services Department when all preliminary work

and flashing details will be complete and the Installer is ready to proceed with

application of Roofing Membrane. Allow a minimum of two (2) weeks for the interim

inspection to be made by the Manufacturer’s Contractor Services Department.

O Any final roofing installation prior to this interim inspection is subject to rejection by the

Project Architect and/or the Manufacturer’s Contractor Services Department. Please be

advised that Technical On-Site Support for instructing Certified Contractors in the

scheduled last coat for new items. Paint all exposed existing painted surfaces in colors as

directed by Owner's Representative.

3.02 PREPARATION OF SURFACES

A. Do not apply finishing materials to surfaces that are not physically tight and in first class

condition. Remove all foreign matter, rough spots, prime coat paint runs, etc., and clean

surfaces of dirt, rust, grease, etc., and wire brush miscellaneous steel and iron surfaces and, if

necessary, sand smooth metal surfaces to have an enameled finish.

B. If surfaces are not in suitable condition for painting and finishing and cannot be put in such

condition by customary preparatory methods, promptly notify Owner's Representative or

assume responsibility for and rectify any resulting unsatisfactory finish.

C. The proper preparation of surfaces to be finished will be strictly enforced. Remove defects and

refinish wherever finished surfaces show defects due to improper preparation, workmanship,

etc.

D. Mask off fire rating labels on doors and frames.

3.03 WORKMANSHIP


Roof Renovations


09900 - 4 8/14/2015

A. Perform Work with skilled mechanics. Spread materials evenly, flowing on without runs, lap

marks, or other defects. Color undercoats of paint to match final coat closely. Allow each coat

to dry thoroughly before applying succeeding coat. Match approved samples of colors and

finishes. If specified number of coats do not result in proper hiding and build up, an additional

coat or coats will be required at no additional cost to Owner. There shall be no spray painting

in the building unless approved in writing by Owner's Representative.

B. Provide adequate illumination for interior painting and finishing. Provide adequate ventilation

for drying of materials but eliminate drafts that might cause uneven drying.

C. Sand enameled surfaces lightly between coats. Carefully wipe off sanding dust before

recoating. Use sandpaper of such fineness as will not leave scratches that succeeding coat of

finishing material will not obliterate.

D. Reduce paint and finishing materials, if necessary, for proper application with thinner of type

and in quantities not in excess of paint and finishing materials properly stirred during

application. If specified number of coats of paint or varnish do not result in proper hiding or

build up due to excess thinning or improper application, an additional coat or coats will be

required at no cost to Owner.

E. Remove doors for painting tops and bottoms. After fitting, finish top and bottom edges of

doors as faces. Paint edges of doors occurring between rooms or spaces having different

finishes the same as room or space from which they are visible when door is partly opened.

3.04 PROTECTION AND CLEANING

A. Protect Work of other trades against injury or damage during and because of painting and

finishing operations. Replace any material or surfaces damaged, or restore, if such is possible,

to original condition.

B. Furnish and lay drop cloths in areas where painting and finishing is being done. Protect floors

and other surfaces from dripping materials. Where it becomes necessary to remove temporary

coverings protecting material in place in order to proceed with Work, replace or provide other

satisfactory means of protection.

C. Promptly clean off spots of paint, oil, and stains from floors, hardware, and other surfaces. Do

not allow them to accumulate, dry, or harden. Upon completion of the Work, check finished

surfaces, clean off previously undetected spots and stains used in painting and finishing from

the building, and leave entire building in clean condition insofar as painting and finishing Work

is concerned.

D. Store paints, thinners, and other flammable materials outside building, if possible. When

necessary to store inside, store in covered containers. Remove oily rags and waste from

building at end of each day's work. Keep fire hazard to minimum.
