Hi all, I’ve written up a detailed tender package for replacing a multi-part EPDM/rubber flat roof on a residential block that I live in after doing informal inspections with roofing contractors. There are issues with pooling, structural degradation, and signs of condensation damage due to poor ventilation. I’d really appreciate some feedback on whether the spec makes sense, whether I’ve written anything stupid, and if you think roofers would realistically respond to this level of detail. I'm also looking to invite some quotes from surveyours to give me detailed specification of the condition of the roof, and give me a scope of works, but really don't know if that should be necessary as I'm looking at stripping down the whole flat roof. I have gathered the list of roofers myself, anyone know any forums or groups of roofing contractors that I can share this with to get some more quotes in? https://imgur.com/a/G3TuqN6

https://imgur.com/a/EP662fY Dear all, I live on the top floor of a block of 9 flats, and am quite tired of the mismangement and neglect that this building has been subjected to over my 2 years of tenure here. So I have over the last couple of months, managed to rally most of the building's rather inactive and dormant leasholder to acquire the RTM (right to manage) of the building. We are still about ~ 6 months from taking over, the leasholders who were rather uninterested at first seem to be getting more involved as time goes on. Myself and another top floor neighbour have recently had some leaking roof issues coming up during the stormier periods. I have pushed for the maintenance company to instruct an roof report/investigation and that has come up with the link attached. My understanding is that some trades companies will try to scaremonger you into a high quote, but I am still worried about point 12 where it is mentioned that 'the floor has collapsed', I am awaiting for the first quote and hoping to see some detailed breakdown. I should mention that I have zero knowledge on trade practices/roofing matters, and will be relying on a new leasholder that works in that space, I am just looking to see if someone can give me their informed subjective opinion on this report, and urgency/(likely cost) of repairs involved. N.B. The building is 20 years old, and am assuming that the same goes for the roof as well, please let me know if there is any other information I can supply. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
