110 Derby Street Roof_Repair_photos_for_Patti_Thu_Jul_15_2021_13-15-34This is the rear of the house. Where the work needs to be done on the roof (x) This is the house as seen from the intersection of Turner and Derby. The roof work to be done is at the rear of the house. x This is the rear of the house. Where the work needs to be done on the roof. There are some more detailed photos to follow, and a structural engineer is working on the drawings –but the area where the pitch needs to be changed is between the two white lines. The ridge is not being touched, just replace the missing rafters and change the pitch in the marked section. The skylight is not visible from the street. This is the rear roof from the egress deck. There is a skylight. I have been up and down Derby street and have found nowhere where the skylight can be seen from the street. The area of roof where there will be a pitch change is to the left of the skylight and behind the dormer on Unit #3. I have taken a ton of photos and cannot find a way to photograph that area from the street, that is to say a way that that area of the roof can be seen from the street. I asked the contractors to put markers on the roof to see what was /was not visible from the street. They used 2/4 wood laid out as above. None of the wood was visible from the street –from any angle. You can see the ladder on subsequent photos and it is standing about 3 feet to the right of the right edge of the skylight. This is again taken from the deck area at the rear of the house we ran caution tape – from the ridge, 24 inches away from the chimney over to the top edge of the adjacent dormer–you can see where Bill is standing in the photo, the very bottom of the satellite dish is the same height as his shoulders. The new rafters won’t go nearly this high-I believe they will max out at 36 inches, so roughly where Bills waist is -but I wanted you to see that even at this height you cannot see anything from the road. The satellite dish is a good marker –from the street this is the absolute most that you can see of the satellite dish. With the caution tape in place, and / or with the pieces of wood on the roof, this is what you can see from the street This is the same view from the deck –ladder, skylight, wood marker More of the same…….. with the caution tape in place, and / or with the pieces of wood on the roof, this is what you can see from the street More of the same…….. with the caution tape in place, and / or with the pieces of wood on the roof, this is what you can see from the street. More photos again skylight not visible, ladder is visible (just)
