The issue of the roof <br />warranty only surfaced a little over a week ago when we started to receive phone calls from a roofing installer. <br /> <br />Of course, the skylight manufacturer will not let a roofing manufacturer dictate the details of the fabrication and <br />installation of their product and still provide the warranty required by specification. <br /> <br />We spoke with the skylight installer this morning regarding the roofer’s detail and his response was that he would ask <br />the skylight manufacturer if they would refabricate some of the skylight, but likely, it will not be entertained. <br /> <br />As initially indicated, it appears that this project being asked to sacrifice the skylight guarantee in exchange for the <br />roofing guarantee, which again was not disclosed to us. <br /> <br />We have directed the not installer not to proceed with any further work until you have resolved the competing interest <br />between Cushman Wakefield, Garland and the design documents. <br /> <br />Hopefully, these issues can be resolved, and clear direction provided not later than March 8, 2021. <br /> <br /> <br />From: Debi Hunter/USA <debi.hunter@cushwake.com> <br />Sent: Tuesday, March 2, 2021 8:06 AM <br />To: Paxton Whitmore <pwhitmore@garlandind.com>; Calvin Barber <cbarber@carolinaci.com> <br />Cc: Drew Wilgus <dwilgus@smithsinnett.com>; Rob Banks <rbanks@garlandind.com>; Curtis Lee/USA <br /><curtis.lee@cushwake.com>; Ashley Taylor <ataylor@carolinaci.com>; Scott Mcconnell <br /><smcconnell@smithsinnett.com>; Glenn Wise <gwise@carolinaci.com> <br />Subject: RE: Hillsborough Commons Skylights - Curb Detail <br /> <br /> <br />Good morning – please confirm that the skylights will be installed per the directions from Garland. There are <br />no alternatives on this issue, anything else will void our warranty. <br /> <br />Thanks - <br /> <br />Debi Hunter, LEED Green Associate <br />Director of Operations <br /> <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 348125E7-D480-4807-896D-2DA6D1D90CCE
