Roofing Division December 17, 1987 bcc: Mr Chamberlain Mr Hardy Mr Maloof Mr Patenaude File Mr Bernard Welch Bernie's Roofing and Siding Company 1030 Tolland Street East Hartford CT 06108 RE: SAINT ROSE SCHOOL 21 CHURCH STREET EAST HARTFORD CT 06108 Dear Mr. Welch: The ponding of water on any given roofing system is a bad practice. It leads to roof problems. Bird will not warrant any sections of its built-up roofing systems that hold ponded water over 24 hours. It is the responsibility of the designer and contractor to make certain that there are the proper number of drainage outlets to shed water off the roofing membranes. Thank you.
