RETAIL/OFFICE BUILDING - OAK CLIFF, TEXAS

• General assessment of roof condition & detailed report.
• Consulted on a new TPO roof system installation
• Advised on change orders for parapet wall treatments & new penetrations.

Client Comment: “As the building owner, I had very little knowledge of what to do with the roof on my building. We received estimates from roofing contractors with varying proposals that were difficult to understand and prices all over the place. We hired Mr. Wolford, who gave us his own comprehensive assessment (which recommended a new roof system), carefully interpreted and explained the estimates in a language we could understand and guided us through the process from start to completed installation. We are very satisfied with our investment and the finished roof. His recommendations and advice on a number of decisions with the components of the roof and the actual work to be done saved us a considerable amount of time and money.”

• General assessment of roof condition & detailed report.
• Advised on recondition of flashings & penetrations.
• Recoating smooth-surface asphalt roofs with aluminized roof coating.

Client Comment: “After experiencing some roof leaks, we were concerned about the huge expense of buying new roofs for both of our buildings. A colleague recommended Ken who provided us with a valuable report on the condition of the roofs and took the time to carefully explain to us the details of his observations. We were relieved to hear from him that we had options. Based on his advice, we confidently chose to contract for some reworking of the flashings & penetrations and then a new revitalizing coating was applied everywhere. He also assisted us with a final walk-though of the finished installation. For a sensible cost, we are now able to retain the roofs on both buildings for a reasonable number of years until such later time when we may have to replace the roofs when it becomes necessary.”

Client Comment: “Our HOA sought the advice of Mr. Wolford to assess the condition of our roof as the warranty was about to expire and there were a couple of seemingly small issues. Bids we had received from roofing companies were confusing; they offered differing and wide-ranging solutions, including a new roof. Ken gave us assurances that the existing rubber roof was in reasonably good condition but needed some careful attention in areas around drains and roof membrane seams. Ken subsequently brought to our attention previously undetected concerns with an unusual covering over the tops of the walls surrounding the roof. He had also discovered substrate issues with a number of the high walls, advised us of the possible causes, and emphasized the critical need for imminent remedial work in these areas. Ken guided us through everything from a condition assessment, the use of an infrared scan to find all of the moisture problems, the requirements with fixing the walls, choosing a contractor, and a final review of the contractor’s repair work. Without his expertise and patience, this process would have been much more stressful and costly for us”.
