Remove dusting agents and dirt from membrane and substrate areas where bonding adhesives are to be applied.

Apply specified adhesive evenly and continuously to substrate [and underside of sheets] at rates recommended by the roof membrane manufacturer.

Roll each sheet into adhesive slowly and evenly to avoid wrinkles; broom or roll the membrane to remove air pockets and fish mouths and to ensure full, continuous bonding of sheet to substrate. Check all seams and ensure full lap seal applied to all adhesive formed seams and all cut edges of reinforced membrane materials. All seams and lap splices reinforced with seam tape in accordance with membrane manufacturer's printed instructions. Apply minimum 9-inch-long strip of membrane-backed flashing tape over T-intersections of roof membrane. Roll tape to ensure full adhesion and seal over T-joint. Extend and adhere EPDM roofing material a minimum of 8-inches up brick wall. Includes all flashing and counter flashing to work with the weep holes of new through wall flashing in the adjacent brick wall.

6. Re-install saved heater chimney pipe into the new roof with all new seals, flashing to make waterproof. New anchor hardware for support arms to match existing.

7. Install new 16 oz minimum copper edge strip/facia to cover the area where the membrane is keyed into the roof edge. Install 8-inch wide EPDM at roof edge to seal copper edge strip.

Closeout Procedures

1. Contractor shall coordinate with the TPOC for a final inspection walkthrough of the project to ensure the work is completed in accordance with this Statement of Work. Contractor shall leave the entire site of the work in a neat and orderly condition.

2. Contractor shall ensure that a complete "As Built" drawing was submitted to the TPOC and is accepted as accurately depicting the as-built configuration of the installation.
