Villages at Waipio AOAO was a 21-building town home association + clubhouse. This roofing project required the complete tear off of the existing wood shakes and roof accessories and new installation of Country Manor Aluminum Shakes in 2 different colors. Each building was occupied and it was important not to interfere with the daily operations of the homeowner. Staging areas were also very tight and limited and daily had to be mobilized and demobilized for loading/unloading. The entire project covered approximately 1,600 squares.

100% fall restraint tie-off was implemented. With a steep 6:12 pitch, 100% tie-off was in place at all times. There were no accidents on the job and safety plan was in place. All was OSHA compliant. This project had to be completed with minimal impact to the residents and thus required packing in and packing out daily. Controlled access zones were also in place.

This project included special roof slope considerations with the steep 6:12 pitch of the roof that made it difficult to do the demolition. The tear-off required completely removing the existing shake roof, underlayment of existing plywood decking and complete disposal daily off the premises. Daily, the crew had to pack materials in and out of the property, and daily it all had to be removed so as not to be a safety hazard to the residents and guests. Due to limited space for staging, the crane had to be broken down and rest up daily so as not to affect the parking areas.

The roof system was fastened over skip sheathing and Techshield radiant barrier boards and sharkskin ultra underlayment installed. Free floating high density EPS inserts were installed under the aluminum shakes.

This project met the strict compliance the Hawaii energy code requirements. Radiant barrier boards and ridge vents were installed.
