Roofing Question [RE-wrenches]

[Steve Johnson]

I just finished an installation on an EDPM (or is it EPDM)membrane.
The roof was only 1 year old and under warranty so I hired the roofer to 
set our standoffs in order for him to keep it under warranty.  Because 
the lightweight aggregate undr the mebrane(with insulating foam board in 
between) was old and crumbly he had to drill through the roof at each 
standoff and use a steel plate to sandwich the standoff to the exposed 
ceiling underneath with four bolts.  It was a job.

At any rate he used what he calls witches hats, made by Firestone, they 
are compatible with the EDPM.  They are a rubber like material and have 
a round base.  Worked great. Roof under warranty. But he does nice work. 
I suppose it would depend on the particular roofer.  I'm thinking of 
establishing a relationship with him to set standoffs on exceptionally 
steep roofs, flat roofs, etc.  Anybody else doing that?
