The project is scheduled to start May 13, weather permitting. Materials will start arriving on the property Friday, May 16. Some material will be placed on the roofs while other material will be placed in a shipping container. The shipping container is being delivered Thursday, May 15  AM and will be placed near center island closet to HilHi.

Monday - Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. If the weather is good and there is enough light, work may last until 8 PM.

Depending on the weather, the project will last 8 to 14 weeks.

A 10-year workmanship warranty. What this means is that if there any leaks or issues that were caused by the workmanship Cooper Mountain will fix the mistake free of charge for 10-years.

Malarkey Highlander AR shingles. You can read more about them at https://roofinginsights.com/malarkey-highlander-shingles-review/.

A limited lifetime warranty.

No, Cooper Mountain Roofing will take care of registering for the warranty.

Charcoal gray, similar to the color on the current roofs.

Asphalt shingles last between 20-30 years. We hope to get to the higher end of the range due to the workmanship of Cooper Mountain and the additional venting being installed. In addition, aggressive tree branch trimming and gutter repair will also aid in the extending the life of the shingles.

No.

No. At this time, we anticipate the reserves to cover the overages, but we will not know the full scope of the work until the shingles are removed from the homes. As discussed in April’s meeting, we may have to do a special assessment if costs run high. If that happens, we do not anticipate the special assessment being more than $2-3000 per home which is significantly better than a $31,200, 20-year loan at 7 percent interest (PONO/Superior’s cheapest bid; see meeting minutes from April 2025.) In addition, as we discussed in May's meeting, watering of the property may have to be reduced.

Remove any patio furniture, plants, etc., from around your home. Remove any delicate/fragile items from the walls and shelves inside your home. Vibrations may run through the home as the old roof is removed and the new roof is put on. The HOA nor Cooper Mountain Roofing is responsible for items falling of the wall and/or shelves. Make sure to read the Robin Meadows Roofing Project letter.

Yes, it is unavoidable. Please care for pets and children appropriately.

The board will post a weekly update to RobinMeadows.com. To track the budget and spending, see the Roofing Project Cost Tracker.

A board member has emailed all homes with a satellite dish on its roof. Please fill out the questionnaire as soon as possible. If you have a satellite dish on your roof it will be removed. If you do not want the satellite to be reinstalled, it is the responsibility of the homeowner to dispose of the satellite dish. Please contact your satellite provider, as they may recycle it for you. Alternatively, you may be able to drop it off at Far West Recycling.

If you want to keep your satellite dish, please submit an ARC application. Following approval, please contact your service provider to reinstall the dish.

Warped, split, cracked, delaminated, rotted or structurally unsound sheathing that represents an unsuitable nailing surface is considered to be bad sheathing that will not hold roofing nails well, and could lead to shingles blowing off the house. Further, Cooper Mountain and the shingle manufacturer cannot provide a warranty for shingles installed on defective sheathing. Not all these defective plywood conditions are visible from inside the attic. Some of this damage is only visible on the top side of the plywood, which is only discovered when the existing roofing is torn off. Cooper Mountain will replace all structurally compromised or environmentally unsafe (mold) sheathing.

Yes, beginning Monday, 5/19/25, the gate to HilHi will be locked in order to protect the safety of the students. Once school is let out (June 12), the gate will be unlocked.
