Re: TPO Rates


The last bid I put out is for a 65x80'+walls with many many penetrations (pipes mostly). We can run that scenario or wait for something larger.

Re: TPO Rates


How about this.

Existing roof: 250' x 250' Elevation is 18'
- BUR with gravel over 3/4" perlite mopped to mechanically attached 1.5" polyiso over type b metal deck.
- the walls are block and are 36" high with top of wall equalling 8". The existing base flashings are terminated at 18" and have an old rusty galvanized surface mounted counterflashing. Old rusty coping cap.
- 5 each 6'x6' curbs. Height of curb = 10"
- 5 VTR's
- 40 pitch pans
- 5 rusty goosenecks near the curbs.

Bid a recover spec with 60 mil TPO mechanically attached over 1" iso
New base flashings with surface mountat walls. New coping cap. New 8" gutter with 6 downspouts. 15 year warranty.

We should probably only estimate cost and use the same dollars per man hour.
If you want to do this, we'll agree on a day to have it finished.
If not thats fine too.

Re: TPO Rates


If you're repalcing the coping why not cover the entire wall and wrap the roof up and over the wall and the cover again with coping?

I'll shoot ya a number when I get more time perhaps this afternoon or tomorrow. I'm goign to give you what my price would be for the customer, then what my expected material costs would be and estimated labor.

Re: TPO Rates


You said there is coping but also gutters. I'd need quantities to give an accurate price. You have a aerial/satellite photo?

What's a VTR?

Re: TPO Rates


No. I made it up. Just so we could look at each others info. Having said that, figure easy access all around the building. Not congested and within 30 minutes from your shop. The owner is easy to deal with.

I'll post my numbers on sunday. may have to work on it a bit on saturday.

Re: TPO Rates


LOL we just call them "vents" seems a little more logical.

Still need quantities on gutter and coping.

Re: TPO Rates


You must not bid much new construction.

The construction term is VTR or Vent Thru Roof.

VTR's are round and come in various circumfrences (probably misspelled).

Vents are typically metal and can mean any number of things and come in any number of sizes.

Re: TPO Rates


I don't do ANY new construction. No profit + lots of head aches = work I pass on.

Re: TPO Rates


$208,275

Any one else... I figure it's on the high side and would get under bid but maybe I'm wrong...
