CONCORD Before retiring last month as the Mt. Diablo school districts sole roofer, David Tomason said he often felt like a one-legged man in a kicking contest each rainy season as he raced around the 56-campus district trying to plug leaks.

Tomason estimated that at least 50 percent of the roofs at district schools are in need of replacement and many are near or at the end of their life cycle.

His comments underscore an ongoingdebate over school maintenance and money management in one of Contra Costa Countys largest school districts:Despite vowing to repair and replace leaking roofs when it asked voters in 2010 to approve a $348 million construction bond measure, the district has spent only a sliver of the money from Measure C on those needs, and it is now down to the last$38.5 million.

The district hasnt beenlistening, said Tomason, who spoke out after retiring last month after 14 years with the district. A lot of that Measure C money was spent on peoples wants rather than needs.

In the past few years, Tomason said, he was forced to respond to countless roofing leaks, including those in cafeteria serving lines, which could cause potential health hazards, and classrooms with expensive computer equipment that could be damaged by water.

Jim Walsh, vice chairman of the Measure C oversight committee, argues that the decision to skip roofing work shows that the district seems more interested in using Measure C to pay for flashy projectsor those that benefit affluent communities pointing to amassive $78.3 million solar energy project and $7.5 million for Northgate High Schools Aquatic Park than those that take care of basic needs. He believes that topay for them, the district plans to pass another bond measure in a few years, although district officials say otherwise.

But district officialshave said roofing replacement is not as urgent as critics are calling it, and that they plan to pay for itthrough the districts maintenance and operations budget as well as Measure A Mello Roos parcel tax revenue.

The district has created a 10-year timeline which consists of replacing approximately five roofs per year, district spokeswoman Ursula Leimbach said last month, adding that many of the roofs vary widely in age and repair needs.The district has spent less than $4,000 from Measure C annually on roofs, she said.

Leimbach also said the district had not had a higher-than-usual number of calls regarding roofs this year, and no significant damage from roof leaks had been reported during the winter storms.

But district documents obtained through a public records request showedthat the districts roofer was asked to respond to nearly twice as many roof leaks, at least 59, from February to March as in the same period last year.

The districts director of maintenance operations, Rob Greathouse,said those numbers were inaccurate, and that some of those problems were not from roofs but could have beenthe result of gutters or downspouts with problems.

Tomason, the district roofer, independently estimated that he was called to repair twice as many leaks this year as last year.Hesaid he believes that the districts decision to use $63 million in Measure C money to install new air conditioning equipment on schools already aging roofs led to further weakening, causing even more leaks.

District officials announced earlier this month thatthey planto kickstart much-needed roofing replacement in the next few months at two of its most urgent sites, Bay Points Shore Acres Elementary and Concords Oak Grove Middle School, as well as the Concord High and Foothill Middle school gymnasiums. Estimated to cost about $2 million, the work for this first set of roofs will be contracted through a federal government cooperative purchasing programrather than the typical open bidding process, which some have expressed concerns will cost more money, said Mt. Diablo school board member Brian Lawrence.

The district also is still weighing whether it will use Measure C money to pay for the initial $2 million, or tap other sources.

According to a consultants reportin April 2015, about $4.7 million was needed to repair roofs at nine schools. They included College Park, Concord, Mt. Diablo and Ygnacio Valley high schools, as well as Oak Groveand Riverview middle schools, which were estimated to have one to two years of life left. But Leimbach said a district specialist reviewed the roofs and did not agree with the consultants findings, and found very few instances of reported leaks.

If water leaks into the schools, it could threaten the millions of Measure C dollars invested, not just for the schools air conditioning but wireless infrastructure and interior paint improvements, Walsh argued.

John Ferrante, the Measure C bond oversight chairman, also said hebelieves that the districts roofing needsshouldnot be delayed further. He also questioned the districts plan to instead use other funding sources, saying it would not be enough to cover the districts long-term roofing needs.

But he defended how Measure C bond money has been spent so far, pointing to upgraded science buildings; a solar panel project that has saved the district money on electricity bills; much-needed heating and air conditioning units for all schools; and installation of security systems and a wireless access system, which is required for state academic testing.

The money was well-spent and properly spent, he said. It just was not enough.

Despite district claims that another bond measure wont be needed to fund roof repairs, he says another onewill definitely be needed for roofs and other school improvements.

Theres more work to be done, he said.

Mt. Diablo: Aging school roofs spur unease, as remaining bond funds dwindle - East Bay Times

Jack Darling

John Jack Darling, president and longtime owner of Maine Roofing Inc. in South Portland, died Saturday after battling lung cancer. He was 82.

Mr. Darling and his brother William Darling Sr. founded Maine Roofing in 1974. All they had was an old pickup truck and $1,000 to their name. Today, the business has grown to 24 employees, who provide commercial roofing and sheet metal services throughout Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont.

Mr. Darling worked in its metal shop throughout his career, creating high-end sheet metal, custom copper and stainless steel fabrication work. His work can be seen in office buildings, schools and hospitals throughout southern Maine. The companys website promotes 20 finished projects, including the W.L. Blake & Co. building on Commercial Street in Portland, the Portland Public Library, Residence Inn at Marriott, and Fore River Medical Pavilion in Portland.

Mr. Darling was remembered by his family Tuesday as a quiet, hardworking man who took pride in his work.

He loved the solitude of working in the shop bending, breaking and cutting, said Liz Darling, his niece and business manager at Maine Roofing. He liked working with his hands. He was an extremely hard worker.

Mr. Darling had a hand in building Maine Roofings offices on Bishop Street in South Portland. He had help from his nephew Bill Darling, the current owner of the company, and many of his staff.

It was a huge undertaking, Liz Darling said. He was very proud of the building we built. Hes going to be well missed. He left a legacy at Maine Roofing and will live on through his work.

Mr. Darling had immense pride in his business and family. He grew up in South Portland, the oldest of 12 children. At age 17, he joined the Navy and became an accomplished nuclear-certified welder. His obituary, which is published in Wednesdays newspaper, says he was recognized by the Navy for his work on the USS Nautilus, which was the first nuclear submarine to complete a submerged transit of the North Pole under the polar ice caps.

He served in the Navy for 11 years before returning to South Portland to work on offshore scallop draggers. He worked at James McBrady Roofing before starting his own business.

A few years ago, Mr. Darling semi-retired and bought a property in Florida where he spent winters.

In his retirement, he loved to go striper fishing and tend to his gardens in Florida. He had several vegetable gardens and fruit trees.

His niece said he loved being with his dachshunds, Millie and Mickey.

Mr. Darling lived in Woolwich with his son Chad and daughter-in-law Cheryl Thompson. He also leaves five stepchildren.

About a year ago, he was diagnosed with lung cancer.

He fought to the very end, his niece said. He was a fighter, Ill tell ya.

Dyer

By SARALYNNORKUS saralyn.norkus@clevelandbanner.com

The Cleveland City Schools site committee meeting was filled to the brim with updates, discussions and recommendations made on various projects.

On the agenda for Wednesday morning was the Cleveland Middle School roofing project, the potential energy savings project with Energy Systems Group, and updates on the Candys Creek Cherokee Elementary School pre-bid meeting and the turf field at Cleveland High School.

Its progress and thats exciting, Site Committee Chairman Steve Morgan declared.

Director of Schools Dr. Russell Dyer left Wednesdays meeting feeling the school systems capital projects are all moving along in the right direction.

I think our Board of Education has put a premium on making sure that our energy systems, our buildings, and our grounds are in good shape. That makes the learning environment more comfortable for our students and employees, Dyer said.

Ill also give credit to the City Council and citizens of Cleveland for allowing us to have some of that sales tax revenue that goes specifically towards our capital projects.

Having received bids for the CMS roofing project a week ago, Upland Design Group architect Brian Templeton presented the committee with low bidder according to the base bid and the bid alternates.

C.M. Henley was low bidder for the base bid, coming in at $656,719. Low bidder for the base bid and the first alternate, which is a partial reroof of Blythe Bower Elementary School with a 20-year warranty was Dixie Roofing, for a total of $886,680. Low bidder for the base bid and a partial reroof of Blythe Bower with a 30-year warranty went back to C.M. Henley.

Templeton suggested the committee consider recommending the base bid and alternate No. 2, because it would be a solid investment. He pointed out the 30-year warranty is not just for insurance purposes, but includes a thicker membrane roof.

City Schools Director of Maintenance and Transportation Hal Taylor agreed with Templetons statements.

Because all of the bids still came in lower than they were initially expecting, site committee member Peggy Pesterfield made a motion that they present the base bid and 30-year roof option at Blythe Bower to the Board of Education on Monday. Charlie Cogdill seconded the motion.

The groups second recommendation involved starting up a project with Energy Systems Group, who is already working with Bradley County Schools to make their buildings more energy efficient.

In Aprils BOE meeting, ESG business development manager Russ Nelson presented a energy update plan that could save the school system $225,000 to $300,000 a year in utilities. All of the projects upgrades would be funded from those savings over a 15 or 20-year deal.

We spend so much time piecemealing and doing [other] things, and this is an opportunity for us to get a lot of work done at the same time and bring everything back up to the level as some of our newer equipment, Morgan said

Maintenance-wise, and its not glittery or pretty stuff, but its the guts and the nuts and bolts of how our system works. To get that efficient and to save us all that money in the long term, itd have to be the most exciting aspect.

The group discussed their fears on how the plan sounded too good to be true, but Director of Schools Dr. Russell Dyer feels that they have done enough research to be comfortable with moving forward with ESG.

I think we have done our due diligence in checking references from other school systems within Tennessee that have gone with the same company and used the same type of contract they have seen savings, Dyer stated.

You have to check facts, you have to check resources, and Ithink weve done our homework on this.

The guarantee that they offer will be verified by our attorney, and gives us the reassurance that what they say is what they mean and well have recourse to hold them to that line, Dyer continued. From our talks with other school systems, other superintendents and other people who do Hals job, thats what they found to be true. We feel very confident in their abilities.

Cogdill made a motion that the site committee recommend to the board that they move forward with the energy update project with ESG.

The site committees recommendations will be voted on at the May BOE meeting, which is this coming Monday at the Administrative Office Building at 5:30 p.m.

Energy, turf, roofing eyed by Cleveland school board - Cleveland Daily Banner

Staff report

A local roofing contractor pleaded guilty Wednesday to felony Workers Compensation and welfare fraud charges.

Joseph Kellogg, Sr., 51, of Storrie St., pleaded guilty to failure to secure compensation and first-degree offering a false instrument for filing, both felonies, according to a release issued from state Inspector General Catherine Leahy Scott.

Kellogg has been caught for the second time in four years conducting similar fraudulent activity on the Workers Compensation system, according to the release.

Kellogg, a residential roofing contractor in Amsterdam, filed four separate building permit applications in 2015 that included fraudulent certifications stating he had no employees and as such was exempt from obtaining Workers Compensation insurance, according to the release.

In 2013, Kellogg pleaded guilty second-degree offering a false instrument for filing, a similar fraudulent certification.

Scott investigated and determined Kellogg used several employees on his roofing job contracts related to the 2015 permit application, at one point employing 11 individuals on two simultaneous projects. Under state law, according to the release, employers are required to maintain Workers Compensation coverage for their employees. Following his arrest in 2016 on the latest fraud charges, Kellogg was additionally charged with felony false filings when it was determined he earned income through his contracting business Joes Roofing. Kellogg failed to disclose that income in an application for food stamp benefits.

This defendant carved out an entirely new level of unabashed fraud with his crimes, not only leaving his own employees without critical coverage to protect their well being, but also committing virtually the same fraud he was convicted of just a few years earlier, Scott said in the release. I will continue to use my office and the resources at my disposal to pursue anyone who defrauds the Workers Compensation or welfare systems as both provide critical safety nets for those who are truly in need.

Kellogg remains released on bail pending sentencing Oct. 2 in Montgomery County Court.

Scott thanked the city of Amsterdam and Montgomery County Department of Social Services for assisting with the investigation, the Amsterdam Police Department for assisting in the arrest and county District Attorney Kelli McCoski for prosecuting the case.

WENHAM An administrative law judge has upheld most of the fines leveled against a well-known North Shore roofing company over a 2014 scaffold collapse in Wenham that left one man with a broken neck and at least one other person injured.

The fines were imposed by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration as a result of the October 2014 incident at a job site on Parsons Hill Road.

OSHA also concluded that the two companies on the job site, A.C. Castle Roofing and Provencher Home Improvement, were acting as one employer making both liable for the fines, at that point a total of $294,500.

The owners of both A.C. Castle and Provencher appealed to the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.

Following a three-day trial last year, Judge Sharon Calhoun issued findings in February, which became final last week. The judge upheld most of OSHA's findings, though she did dismiss two of the violations, reducing the penalty to $173,500.

But Brian LeBlanc, the owner of Beverly-based A.C. Castle, vowed on Monday to continue his appeal of the findings, saying they're "totally unfair."

"It's a totally unfair decision and we're going to appeal that," said LeBlanc.

Daryl Provencher, the owner of Provencher Home Improvement, died at the age of 47 last December. He had been representing himself in the appeal. OSHA said in a press release announcing the ruling that due to his death the fines against him were "extinguished."

The accident occurred when a spruce plank being used as part of scaffolding broke, sending at least two workers 20 feet to the ground.

The invoice for the plank specifically stated that it was not intended to be used in scaffolding.

OSHA also concluded that other problems on the site included deficient components in the scaffolding and a lack of roof anchors and tethers for the workers to prevent falls.

The agency, which falls under the Department of Labor, also concluded that the business operations of Castle and Provencher were "highly integrated."

The judge's decision agreed, pointing to evidence such as property owners not being told that Provencher was a subcontractor, Castle paying bills for materials used by Provencher, and management of workers.

LeBlanc disputes all of those conclusions.

"They're trying to say those are my employees," said LeBlanc. "That's not true."

He said Provencher, though a longtime friend, was one of around five subcontractors he'd hired for various jobs in 2014, and that he has copies of checks Provencher paid to him to reimburse for the cost of equipment and supplies.

He also said Provencher had his own workers compensation insurance and had even been cited by OSHA separately in the past.

Asked about the judge's observation that workers on the site were given Castle shirts to wear, LeBlanc said that if anyone on the site had a shirt, it was likely old and not given out specifically to wear that day.

"If one of Daryl's (Provencher) guys is wearing a Nike sweatshirt, does that mean he works for Nike?" said LeBlanc.

LeBlanc can appeal to the First Circuit Court of Appeals within 60 days; he said that appeal is already in the works.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) Con artists appear to be targeting elderly homeowners in sections of Queens.

The suspects convince people to get roof repairs and pay in cash only later do residents learn the work is sub-standard.

As CBS2s Dave Carlin reported, police in Middle Village posted signs warning residents of a door-to-door scam.

I was scammed, yes I was definitely scammed, Patricia Zinza said.

Zinza wishes she had never opened her door to the strangers she said skillfully wormed their way up to her roof.

A young fella came to the door, knocked on the door, we looked at your roof, you need a roof repair, she said.

She initially said no, but the men insisted.

You gotta do it right away, you gotta do it right away, they told her.

He said Ill settle for $4,000 and nothing less, and like a fool, I gave them a check, she said.

Zinza is a member of the Juniper Park Civic Association, and when she told the others on her board about it, they figured she was scammed.

Jumping in to investigate was their leader Bob Holden.

They usually target seniors between April and August of a particular year, and its been going on for decades, he said.

Holden had expert roofer John Dickman double-check the work done on Zinzas home. She thought she had paid for her roof to be completely sealed, but Dickman found no evidence of that.

What these guys do is they go up, they merely spray the roof with a diluted aluminum roof coating, Dickman explained.

Really, all it was, was silver paint, Zinza said.

There were several numbers for the first roofer, and CBS2s Carlin tried them all, never sure if he was getting through to the right person.

Police said sometimes, scam artists steal the identities of legitimate roofers, making them difficult to track down. They said they need neighbors to help spread the word and help them stop the scam with tips to avoid getting conned.

The warnings posted on trees and power poles are a heads up for homeowners to ignore anyone knocking on doors offering roof repairs or other fix it jobs.

Top offs that the workers are not legit include vehicles with out of state plates and demanding cash payments for the work.

Another scam involves awning repairs. Con artists get money up front for the work, but never return.

Cops Warn Of Door-To-Door Roofing Scam Targeting Elderly In Middle Village - CBS New York

City council voted Wednesday to reduce permit fees for residents wishing to install solar reflective roofing (cool roofs), unanimously deciding against a proposed ordinance that would have required the technology on new roofs in the City of Malibu.

So-called cool roof technology is designed to reflect more sunlight and absorb less heat than a standard roof, according to a report prepared by city staff. Cool roofs can reduce a roofs surface temperature by several degrees, resulting in a reduction of heat transferred into the building below.

Instead of enacting the requirement, council voted to give an incentive in the words of Mayor Pro Tem Skylar Peak: A nice little green carrot with a Benjamin on it, and they can use that carrot if they want.

The idea was originally brought forward by City Council Member Laura Rosenthal in November 2016 as a green initiative modeled on a similar program in the City of Los Angeles. The motion to direct staff to write the ordinance passed unanimously in November, but since then the makeup of the council has changed and more research has been done, throwing the effectiveness of the technology into question.

Sometimes solutions are inappropriate for our geographic region, David Brotman, former planning commissioner, said in comments before council on Wednesday. Cool roofs are least efficient in our [climate] zone.

Brotman described research he had undertaken. His findings: Malibu tends to have low rates of air conditioning use in the summer and low rates of heating use in the winter. In other words, cool roofs may be unnecessary in the summer (since energy is not being used to cool buildings) and have adverse effects in the winter (when the sun warms homes sufficiently).

While your hearts are in the right place, I urge you not to adopt this ordinance, Brotman continued. I know that we all are concerned about energy, but make sure you understand the technical aspect of what youre doing. Its not required here. It will not have the effect you think it will.

Council considered the argument.

I think its been perceived that its been a lot warmer here, Peak said. I dont think its as hot here as it is in LA or over the hill. Peak also said he was not comfortable with reflective roofs changing views for every one staring down on Malibu from the Santa Monica Mountains.

City staff said they had done research on the technology before bringing the ordinance forward and felt it would be effective for Malibu; however, they provided the caveat that their temperature research included the entirety of the 90265 zip code including hotter areas in the hills outside Malibu city limits.

For the 90265 zip code which we all know extends beyond our city limit the number of cooling degree days is much much larger than the number of heating degree days, Malibu Environmental Sustainability Manager Andrew Sheldon explained. Across the whole city, we are likely to save energy overall.

While Peak and Rosenthal seemed inclined to, in Peaks words, Push the envelope when it came to environmental standards, in the end, council decided to take a less drastic step significantly reducing permitting fees for those who wish to install cool roof technology on their homes. Fees, Environmental Sustainability Director Craig George, described, vary for re-roofing permits but hover around a couple hundred dollars. He added that around 100 re-roofing permits are issued per year in the city.

Technavios sample reports are free of charge and contain multiple sections of the report including the market size and forecast, drivers, challenges, trends, and more.

Technavio chemicals and materials analysts highlight the following three factors that are contributing to the growth of the global roofing adhesive market:

Increasing demand from emerging economies

The increase in residential and non-residential building constructions in emerging economies is expected to boost the application of roofing adhesives during the forecast period. The emerging countries such as India, China, Indonesia, Russia, and Brazil are expected to drive the demand for roofing adhesives. In 2015, the GDP of India and China was around 7.56% and 6.9%, respectively.

Ajay Adhikari, a lead additives, adhesives, and sealants research analyst at Technavio, says, The availability of land, cheap labor, and fewer government regulations have made many roofing adhesives vendors to shift their manufacturing centers to these regions. Higher disposable incomes and changing lifestyles in these economies have led to higher growth in the construction market.

Growth in building and construction industry

The output of the global building and construction industry is anticipated to grow by more than 80% and reach USD 15.5 trillion in 2030. Countries such as India, China, and the US are expected to have more than 50% of the total market share. The transformation of the economy is consumer driven and service-centered. It offers opportunities for the growth of building and construction in education, healthcare, and commercial infrastructure.

The growth in 2015 was mainly driven by worldwide construction, improvement in living standards of individuals, and continued urbanization. Globally, residential construction increased to nearly 3% in 2014, led by the expenditure in North American residential development. The residential construction sector of Western Europe experienced an increase of more than 1%, adds Ajay.

Growing urban population

The building and construction market in India is anticipated to grow almost twice as China in 2030. The urban population in India is anticipated to grow more than 160 million in 2030 and Delhi alone is expected have 10.4 million people. Other developing countries such as parts of Africa and Latin America are expected to reach 46% in 2020 from 40% in 2010.

The developed construction markets across the globe such as those of the US, Canada, the UK, and Germany are focusing on upgrading the quality of the existing public infrastructure, whereas, in developing economies such as Asian and African nations, the construction market is focusing on the development of new public infrastructures.
