Spike sticking out of the flat roof. Under the layer of material it's very uneven and there are multiple layers underneath. The wood has most likely rotten in the middle.

4 noticeable spikes (holes) in the flat roof.

3 pales of "leak stop" used but this is just a temporary solution - the flat roof needs to be redone entirely.

No box or ridge vents on the roof at all. It needs 2 vents or ridge venting installed. There is also no underlayment or starter shingles at the bottom.

Roof is soaked underneath the cap that was put on top. Could not see the full extent of the damage because it was accessed in the middle of winter.
92 - IMG142229
Tentis is all soaked, gravel underneath.
93 - IMG142232
Material was torched to the Tentis.

The water rolled right off the tarp and no chance that it leaked.
98 - IMG146931
Karnaked the tarp and the cap sheet that the RS tucked it under 1 foot and then nailed it with cap nails. After that the RS pulled the tarp from all sides gradually nailing the tarp at all sides then once it was tight enough they folded the tarp along the bottom nice and tight again and nailed it with cap nails to the back cedar siding.

Underneath the 2 layers we knew off was 1 more layer of tar & gravel and the first layer was shingles and Tentis.
102 - IMG146959
These nails were driven through every layer.

Wood surface is plywood, it's a little wet in this area but it's drying out quick and no rot or damage.

New insulation is needed now because it was all rotted in this area.
112 - IMG147156
Protector board on top of plywood to give nice smooth level surface.
113 - IMG147163
Metal flashing that separates the upper flat and the lower flat. 2 layers were joined from the upper roof and made into one roof but it is actually 2 roofs. The other layer of flat and 1 layer of shingles were not. These roofs were meant to be separate. Brick wall beyond all those layers and cap flashing.
114 - IMG147164
1 full sheet of plywood to replace plus insulation is being replaced in this area too.
115 - IMG147166
New fiberglass insulation. Replaced the existing wet fiberglass insulation.
116 - IMG147167
4x8 sheet of plywood removed and new insulation put where old and wet insulation was.
117 - IMG147168
Drilled holes under the soffits to allow air to enter through. Once the Client goes ahead with the ventilation for exhaust vents, this will allow air flow through the space.
118 - IMG147169
New sheet of plywood installed with screws.
119 - IMG147170
Staggering the protector board and instead of screwing them in or nailing with cap nails, using Karnak and it will glue the board right to the plywood.

All new plywood screwed into the deck.
