Prepare surface as recommended by polyurea coating manufacturer's specific requirements for adhereing to a standing seam metal roof. SoW 3.a. requires any loose or damaged existing finish or other contaminates to be removed that may prevent adhereance.

3 07/22/2026 SOW Section 3.a / Spec 09 90 00.50, Part 3.1.3

If surface preparation exposes deteriorated panels, rust-through, loose seams, failed fasteners, damaged substrate, or other defects, will repair or replacement of those conditions be handled by contract modification?

The Government will make the determination for contract modification only when the situation requires it. If defects are within the manufaturer's coating tolerances, no modification would be required.

4 07/22/2026 SOW Section 2 / Section 3.b The SOW references pinhole leaks. Are contractors required to locate and repair all leak sources before coating application? If yes, please provide the required repair method and whether repairs are incidental to the roof coating scope.

UFC 3-575-01, 4-4 sets LPS inspector's requirements. Base CE will not provide this inspection service.

12 07/22/2026 SOW Section 3.h If the recently replaced Lightning Protection System fails third-party recertification due to pre-existing conditions not caused by the contractor, will corrective work be treated as additional work?

SoW 3.h. requires reapirs to be made as part of this contract.
