PERFORMANCE GUIDELINES: 5. ROOFS

5.3 Roof Appears Wavy

Acceptable Performance/Condition

Roof sheathing shall be sized and installed in accordance with the Building Code.

Roof sheathing shall be installed with proper joint spacing and support.

Some waviness between framing members may occur even when sheathing is properly installed.

Frost patterns on a roof can give the appearance of waviness without the condition existing (e.g. frost outline on sheathing joints and over roof framing members).

Warranty Coverage

• 12 months In-Home
• 15 months Common Property

Claim Response

Roof sheathing not meeting the Acceptable Performance/Condition must be rectified.

Where repairs are required, colour, finish or texture may not have an exact match.

Seasonal conditions may delay the timing of repairs.

Maintenance Tip

Heavy loads of ice and snow can damage a roof. Normal home maintenance should include professional removal of heavy build-ups of ice and snow
