Hey Paige,

We are still in communication with the roofing company and they are determining if there is anything left that falls within their scope to cure. Books reached out on 12/13 but we were not able to connect. I did relay an extensive report to the crew based on my findings and discussions with folks on site on 12/17 which led to their visit on 12/23. They may also be stopping by tomorrow 12/27 to address the small leaks along the parapet wall which is primarily what they were testing on 12/23. With the exception of an out of scope issue that affects the second floor conference room, there wasn't much else that they were able to do.

There is a possibility that based on the high winds that some leaks may come in through the vents which are openings in the building that cannot be weatherproofed. The first and last picture I attached shows the vent on top of the sudoroom skylight. The roofing company was able to install the TPO roof membrane along the edges of the skylights and over the curbs, but they did not touch the vent that is affixed to the glass that is shown on the close up picture. The second picture of a roof vent shows a brown colored streak where there has been water intrusion in the past, and could continue to pose minor water intrusion risks in the future. This has nothing to do with vent defects or lack of proper sealant which is visible further down the vent shaft but is simply a function of the vents design.

The end of this week will be extremely telling. If anyone witnesses new leaks anywhere in the building please report it to me ASAP.

Thank you!

Hi Valerie,

We did see some leaks but perhaps we noticed them before the roofing was 100% done in the Sudo Room area: On 12/16 there were leaks at each skylight. Books mentioned they would talk to you but I didn't get a report back.

We will let you know if we see any leaks going forwards. No extensive water removal was needed this season which was great! Thank you!

Paige

Winter Seasons Greetings!

I am reaching out to let everyone know that the new roof installation process has concluded. The roofing crews last day was on 12/13 and this past week our team performed a third visual inspection after final punch list items were concluded.

In the coming days, CALLI will square away the final paperwork for this project. The Sierra Roofing team has shown us that the roof is weather proofed and the work appears to be satisfactory. Please keep in mind that there is meant to be a warranty on the work performed by the company. In the event that there are leaks/droplets identified please let me know via email or slack as soon as possible and we will try and identify the source.

Over the scope of the project, two additional building issues were brought to our attention pertaining to the exterior wall of the building facing 47th street that will need updates in the coming year, and the design of the rafter beams that go into the stucco wall on the front facing Shattuck side of the building (close to the overlaps with the tile) that might be cause for an additional scope of work. The CALLI team will continue to review capital improvement needs and work on scheduling building upgrades to strengthen the longevity of the building. In the meantime feel free to remove your tarps and protective sheeting, and make efforts to clean and operate your spaces at normal capacities.

This post construction period coupled with the ongoing pest/rodent servicing will be most successful if we are able to stay alert and monitor whether the changes are making a positive impact.

Thank you and happy holidays,
