CLIN 0001: Building C – Restoration of the Eco Discovery Center roof (single story with roof access):

The Eco Discovery Center (EDC) utilized an older Navy structure with a modified asphaltic roof system. It has a low-pitch gable roof with a new addition having a flat roof.

The original section of the EDC with the low-pitched roof is approximately 8,500 square feet and in need of repair.

A solar PV mat system installed in 2010 has caused significant damage to the underlying weather-proof membrane, including arching, blistering, peeling, and leakage. These issues have already led to water intrusion during rainstorms, threatening the building’s structural integrity.

The solar PV system is scheduled for removal in January 2027. Following its removal, the roof will require immediate restoration. The facility roof shall be restored, including replacing any compromised roof components and applying a new membrane specifically designed to provide a waterproof seal capable of withstanding the local extreme heat, sun, wind, and rain.

i. The existing roofing system shall be restored (approximately 8,500 SF).

ii. The roof restoration on this building will require the following subtasks:

a. Coordination of the work schedule shall take place within 72 hours of the removal of the solar PV mat system.

b. Removal and disposal of any damaged areas of the existing roof system (as appropriate).

c. Replacement of damaged and deficient flashings, membrane roof sections.

iii. Re-coating:

a. Install heavy coat of appropriate silicone white roof coating, in accordance of manufacturers specifications to adhere to manufacturer’s warranty guidelines.

Installation:

i. The roofing work shall be installed by a certified manufacturer installer to ensure the design and manufacturer’s instructions are met and manufacturer can honor the warranty.
