Commercial roofers work with insulation all the time, flat roof
sloped roof, all kinds of roofing membranes including asphalt if
you're going that route. What you want is not uncommon practice
around here, a long way from NY unfortunately. Roofers don't frame
up and sheath roofs, so carpenters have harnesses and all that jazz
too.<br>

I'm hoping to insulate both between the rafters as well as
on top of the sheathing. I can see an "insulation co." doing
between the rafters from the attic but not sure about an
insulation co getting ON the roof laying foam sheets on the
exterior....it seems too intertwined with what a roofer
does...harnesses, etc....please correct me if I am wrong
because my search has turned up no one.<br>
<br>
I have the "plans" from Building Science Corps "Guide for
Builders". Many great illustrations in that document that
lay out the exact details of every
part/junction/penetration, etc.<br>
<br>
I have one lead from Genero but schedules are tricky. Would
still appreciate any additional thoughts on my plans or
leads for roofers in the NY area.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

Your region doesn't have a monopoly on the problem. You're
probably best off<br>
having a roofer do the roof and a good insulation guy or
GC/energy retrofit<br>
contractor insulate. Depending on the nature of the job,
it may benefit to<br>
draw up some plans specific to the house for all
contractors to work from<br>
and (gasp) collaborate.<br>
