Roofers-Carpenters From UCB Physical Plant at Stucco House

Brent Kindle, UCB Physical Plant, a master roofer and planner, visited Hastings with Seth Higby and Stan Richardson to start work on the rot in the roof of the stucco "Bell" house. Build for Jimmy and Lois Bell, the house has had roof problems for a long time. Brent, Seth and Stan removed the roofing from the outer edge of the roof. Carpenters Daniel Valdez and Joe Best joined the group later and removed and replaced the old decking and rotted rafters. Brent, Seth and Stan then re-roofed the edges and the ridges and valleys. These guys are pros and would continually find places where previous local contractors had done the roofing improperly. By fixing these previous mistakes and installing a new roof properly, we expect another good 20 years of dry life in the old Bell house. Thanks to the Brent and his crew from Berkeley!
