Dear Brian,
On November 24, 2014, you issued building permit #497-15 to Lambert Roofing Co., Haverhill, MA, to strip and reroof
my asphalt shingle roof (due to premature shingle failure) which they had previously installed on October 23, 2001. 1
have attached photos showing 3 areas on my roof which I feel are examples of substandard work and have not been
properly addressed by Lambert Roofing (chimney leak improperly repaired with silicone, improper ridge vent installation
due to shingles overlapping ridge vent opening and recent vent pipe leak due to wrong size collar installed). After
recently speaking with Gerald Brown, Inspector of Buildings, about my roofing issues (while you were out of the office
attending a seminar), I would like for you to come out to my house and I can go over these issues in more detail with you
to confirm that they are examples of substandard work(I have more pictures/documentation, can provide easy access to
my attic, a ladder to access the roof or binoculars for your use). If you are in agreement that the roof installation does
not meet acceptable roofing practices, I would like for you to contact Lambert Roofing and notify them accordingly and
request they make the necessary repairs to correct these issues in a timely fashion. As you previously recommended,
have withheld final payment to Lambert Roofing until they make the necessary repairs.
The most recent roof issue and example of substandard workmanship occured last Wednesday (9/30/2015) during the
heavy downpour when I noticed a water leak in the attic around the 3" PVC vent pipe that penetrates the roof (wet the
bathroom ceiling directly below it). I immediately called Lambert Roofing and they said they would get back to me in a
couple days. Since a hurricane was coming up the coast, I decided not to wait on Lambert Roofing and called Testa
Building and Remodeling located in North Andover and they came over the next day (Thursday 10/1/2015) to address
the vent pipe leak.
What they discovered was that a 4" rubber boot/flashing collar had been installed on the 3" vent pipe which was
allowing water to penetrate into the attic. Mr. Testa installed a properly sized 3" rubber boot over the 4" boot and said
that should correct the water leak issue around the vent pipe.
Please advise if you agree that this is an acceptable permanent fix or just a temporary fix and should be corrected by
Lambert Roofing.
I look foward to hearing from you soon so that this matter can resolved with Lambert Roofing in a timely manner.
Sincerely,
Will Edwards
