SURVEY: Inspection coming for Lockport High School.

Lockport High School’s roof will be looked at by a roof consulting firm.
Superintendent Terry Ann Carbone said last month the Board of Education approved the use of an infrared roof moisture survey to look at the roof. Roof Inspec, the company that also inspected the high school pool roof, will do the survey and provide recommendations to the Lockport City School District. It will cost the district $8,700.
The survey will start as soon as Mother Nature cooperates, said District Superintendent for Finance Deborah Coder.
“They’ll have to wait for the weather,” she said.
Having the high school roof looked at came up during a previous meeting when the board was discussing the damaged pool roof. Coder said work on high school pool roof was on track, and the pool would be reopened by the end of January.
“The scaffolding is down,” Coder said. “It’s just cleanup and interior work left.”
The pool roof was expected to be fixed and the pool reopened by November, but the Board of Education was told then the pool roof would not be completed on time. There were two reasons for the delay, one of which included what the workers found when the damaged roof was removed: Underneath, the deck was in much worse condition than expected.
The second reason is Hurricane Ike. The hurricane hit the Tectum plant in Ohio back in the fall, causing it to lose power for two weeks. Tectum is the only plant in the country that manufactures the type of decking the pool roof needed. The Tectum deck is a sound absorption panel with insulation barrier and is replacing the old gypsum deck in the pool roof system. It put the project behind about three to four weeks, because the mechanical work on top of the roof or below it could not take place without the new deck.
In May, the School Board decided to fix the high school roof after an inspection found it was badly damaged. While no accidents were reported, the roof posed a potential safety threat. The district sent an emergency resolution to the state education department for approval so that work could begin as soon as possible.
