General Roofing
- Nine roofers on site
- Contacted John (General Roofing) in regards to several leaks in the gym, nurses corridor, and library.

- The leaks in the nurses corridor felt was not his since his membrane is terminated. They offered to install a temporary vapor barrier over the west exterior Aud. wall to limit the water infiltration into the building.
- The skylights for the gym are set to be installed starting this afternoon.
- Contacted CPL and Supt. regarding the volume of leaks inside the Elem. CPL sent an email to General regarding the concerns and required action that needs to be taken to resolve the situation.
- Carlisle and CPL visited site over concerns with the roof leaks, volume of work at this point in the year, and manpower. Previewed all the leak areas, especially over the nurses office corridor. The consensus was to water test the nurses corridor roof first to see if any leaks occur. Then move water test to the first three courses of brick Highland Masonry installed. Finally move the water test to mid point on the wall. At each test we need to check for water leaks in order to pin point the trouble spot. This work will be coordinated in the near future when the weather permits.
