FROM OUR PROJECT COLLECTIONIdentify equipment tasks as their own responsibilities
If the roof has solar equipment or other installations, ask whether access requires removal or other coordinated work. Establish which contractor handles the equipment, which performs the roofing and who completes the final connections. Roofing at a penetration should not be read as a promise to perform electrical or equipment work.
Put the sequence in writing before removal is scheduled. The owner should know what needs to happen before roofing can begin and what must happen after it is complete. Clarify costs and communication across the involved parties so one contractor’s exclusion does not become an unresolved gap between two agreements.
