STAFF REPORT CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS Date: August 15, 2018 Application Number: 2018-0809A Property Location: 1341 E Wayne Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Tudor Revival / 1928 / H. R. Stapp / Whitcomb & Keller Property Owner: Katherine M. Cinninger Landmark or District Designation: East Wayne Street Local Historic District, Ordinance #7796-87 Rating: Contributing DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: This is a two-story frame irregular plan Tudor Revival with a flared gable asphalt shingle roof with gable return and molded raking trim. A large shed-dormer is on the northwest face. There are casement windows with cut stone sills, half-timber lintels, a brick soldier lintels, and irregularly offset stucco and half-timbering. The two car garage to the rear was originally detached, but is now connected with a later one-and-a-half story addition. The chimney is situated at the entry. ALTERATIONS: COA #1991-0709 allowed for the re-roof of the house and garage with asphalt shingles. COA #1991-0806 allowed for the construction of a porch and connection to the garage. COA #2007-1030 allowed for the construction of a roof off of the non-original addition to create a shaded patio area, trimmed in cedar to match the main structure. COA #2012-0614 allowed for the re-roof of the main house with Owing-Corning architectural asphalt shingles. COA #2012-0829 and COA #2015-0512 allowed for the removal of a dying willow tree in the front yard. RME #2018-0809 (a companion project to the current application) allowed for the replacement of gutters, repair/replacement of wood trim, and to fix the (ventilation) of the soffits. APPLICATION ITEMS: “Replacement / repair of cedar lap siding.” DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks approval for the following improvements to the site: 1. Replacement of existing cedar shake siding with one of three options: a. Replacement with new Cedar Shake Siding (like for like), b. Replacement with “Double 7” Perfection Shingle” manufactured from Polypropylene by Mastic, c. Replacement with LP Smartside, a wood fiber composite. The cedar aspects of this home are at the rear and are found on later additions to the structure. The position / area of the existing cedar wood siding will require continual maintenance were the cedar shake siding to be replaced like for like. Moss and other examples of water infiltration will continue to occur. Alternative materials are an option, each with benefits and negatives. Mastic “Double 7” Perfection Shingles” is a polypropylene product, and the example provided to our office is a shingle option that makes an attempt to replicate the ‘even butt’ of the shake siding that is currently found on the house. LP Smartside is a wood composite that will have some of the same life- span issues that the existing Cedar Shake siding will have. SITE VISIT REPORT: August 10, 2018 At approximately 10:45 AM I met with Dale Donat of Donat’s Construction at the property located at 1341 E Wayne North. The property is located in East Wayne local historic district. He had applied to do repairs to the siding and soffits to the structure. The original structure has a Tudor style façade mostly brick and a second story with stucco between cedar trim. There are continuous wood soffits without vents and crown molding against the house holding the soffits in place. The rear of the structure has 15”wood grooved shakes with a 13” reveal. An addition added in the 1980s by Donat’s has the same siding and the same soffits as the original structure. I counted at least 12 areas where the siding has either been deteriorated by water or pests and have the underneath material showing. Several areas of the soffit have peeling paint and some warping, due to no ventilation. Many areas of the cedar trim need repair, paint, or in some cases, replacement. Mr. Donat told me he intends to: • repair the soffits, maintain the crown molding and add badly needed ventilation on both the original structure and rear addition • replace the existing wood siding with LP Smart wood composite siding that is textured and sized to match the existing. The siding offers greater resiliency to pests and has a cost that is less than the siding that would match that put on in the 1980s. • repair, paint, or replace the damaged cedar trim where needed. • painting replacement material the same to match. Steve Szaday Preservation Inspector STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES, EAST WAYNE STREET: I. EXISTING STRUTURES A. BUILDING MATERIALS Original exterior wall materials in the District include limestone, flagstone, stucco, clapboard, wood shingles, sandstone and masonry block. In some instances, vinyl or aluminum siding have been applied over the original surface Required Original exterior building materials shall be retained. Deterioration of wood materials shall be prevented through repair, cleaning and painting. The existing or original architectural detail around windows, porches, doors and eaves should be retained or replaced by replicas of the same design and materials when deteriorated beyond despair. Masonry including brick, limestone, flagstone, sandstone and stucco shall be cleaned only when necessary to halt deterioration or to remove stains, and shall be done with a method acceptable for the preservation of the surface: i.e. low pressure water and soft natural bristle bushes. When repairing stucco, stucco mixture compatible in composition, color and texture shall be used. Recommended Whenever possible, the original building materials should be restored. Metal or vinyl siding may be used when it is the only alternative to maintaining or replacing the original surface material. When used over wood surfaces, this siding should be the same size and style as the original wood. Every effort should be made to retain the original trim around windows, doors, cornicles, gables, eaves and other architectural features. Ample ventilation must be afforded the structure when metal or vinyl siding has been installed in order to prevent increased deterioration of the structure from moisture and/or insects. Mortal joints should be repointed only when there is evidence of moisture problems or when sufficient mortar is missing to allow water to stand in the mortar joint. Existing mortar shall be duplicated in composition, color, texture, joint size, method of application and joint profile. It is emphasized that, prior to initiating any restoration or rehabilitation effort, the property owner should contact the Historical Preservation Commission of South Bend and St. Joseph County which is located in the County/City Building of South Bend. The Commission is an invaluable source of information about all facets of rehabilitation and restoration. Prohibited Wood siding shall not be resurfaced with new material which is inappropriate or was unavailable when the building was constructed, such as artificial stone, brick veneer asbestos or asphalt shingles. Sandblasting or the use of harsh detergents shall not be used on masonry including brick, stucco, limestone, flagstone and sandstone. This method of cleaning erodes the surface material and accelerates deterioration. Brick surfaces shall not be painted unless they had been painted originally. Repointing shall not be done with a mortar of high Portland cement content which can often create a bond that is stronger than the building material. This can cause deterioration as a result of the differing coefficient of expansion and the differing porosity of the material and the mortar, which can result in serious damage to adjacent brick. Paint shall not be removed from masonry surfaces indiscriminately. Not Recommended Waterproof or water repellent coatings or surface consolidation treatments should not be used on masonry surfaces unless required to solve a specific problem that has been studied and identified. Coatings are frequently unnecessary and expensive, and can accelerate deterioration of the masonry. Mortar joints which do not need repointed should not be repointed. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The applicant is prepared to replace the existing cedar trim as allowed for with RME #2018-0809 but has voiced concern that replacing the Cedar shingles is considered cost prohibitive by the homeowner. Because of the location of these Cedar shingle portions of the house, the degradation of the material has been accelerated leading to regular and continued maintenance by the contractor. As an alternative, Staff was willing to consider the replacement of the shingles with LP Smartside. Staff is of the understanding that this material – when cut to fit the roofline of the structure – will have a higher probability of being compromised by the elements (specifically water at the seems) as well as the temperature extremes of Indiana seasons (with expansion and contraction). The final option presented with this application is preferred by the contractor/applicant: replacing the cedar shingles with a polypropylene siding replicating the style of cedar siding. The majority of this siding is at the rear of the structure and has limited visibility from the street. The Standards and Guidelines for the district do allow for the installation of metal or vinyl siding in the event that it is the “only alternative to maintaining or replacing the original material.” However, Staff believes that replacement Cedar shake shingles are readily available. In a best case scenario, Staff recommends replacing the shingles with new Cedar Siding. In lieu of that option, staff is conflicted and offers no recommendation.

For copies of these reports, call LP Customer Support at 1-800-648-6893. • Minimum 6 in. clearance must be maintained between siding and finish grade. • Siding applied adjacent to porches, patios, walks, etc. must have a clearance of at least 1 in. above any surface. • Minimum 1" clearance at intersection with roof line • Apply siding in a manner that prevents moisture intrusion and water buildup. • All exposed wood substrate must be primed and painted in a manner that prevents moisture intrusion and water buildup. • In non-traditional ICF and SIP assemblies, the ICF or SIP manu- facturer must prescribe the fastening specifications. Note: LP does not recommend LP SmartSide for use in these non-tradi- tional assemblies. If used, LP will not warrant for Buckling and Shrinkage. However, balance of warranty does remain intact. • DO NOT USE STAPLES • SIDING MUST NOT BE IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH MASONRY, CONCRETE, BRICK, STONE, STUCCO OR MORTAR. Storage • Store off the ground well supported, on a flat surface, under a roof or separate waterproof covering • Keep siding clean and dry. Inspect prior to application. Gaps & Sealants • Seal all gaps with a high-quality, non-hardening, paintable sealant. Follow the sealant manufacturer’s instructions for application. • Use a high-quality exterior sealant meeting the ASTM C920, minimum Class 25 sealant. • All openings must be properly sealed or flashed in a manner that prevents moisture intrusion or buildup. Several examples that accomplish this are shown on the following pages. Flashing, Windows, Doors & Openings Stud Spacing • Siding may be applied over sheathed walls or where building codes permit, directly to studs spaced no greater than 16 in. O.C. that have adequate corner bracing. • In all installations over masonry or concrete walls, the wall shall be furred out and open at the top and bottom of the wall to allow for convective ventilation between framing spaced 16 in. O.C. The framing shall be of adequate thickness to accept 1-1/2 inches of nail penetration. A properly installed breath- able water-resistant barrier is required between the siding and masonry or concrete walls. Secondary Water-Resistant Barrier • A properly installed breathable water-resistive barrier is required behind the siding. Consult your local building code for details. • LP will assume no responsibility for water penetration. Trim should be thick enough so the siding does not extend be- yond the face of the trim. • Trim and fascia must be applied in a manner that will not allow moisture intrusion or water buildup. • LP® SmartSide® siding is not designed and/or manufactured to be used as trim or fascia. LP SmartSide trim and fascia are avail- able in a variety of dimensions. Trim Moisture • Moisture control and water vapor control are critical elements of proper housing design. Check your local building codes for application procedures for handling moisture and water vapor in your area. • When using wet blown cellulose insulation, the insulation must not be in direct contact with the siding and it must be allowed to dry a minimum of 24 hours or longer if specified by the insulation manufacturer. • As with all wood products, do not apply engineered wood siding to a structure having excessive moisture conditions such as drying concrete, plaster, or wet blown cellulose insulation. If such conditions exist, the building should be well ventilated to allow it to dry prior to the application of the siding. • Siding must not be applied to green or crooked structural fram- ing members. Do not apply siding over rain-soaked or buckled sheathing materials. • Gutters are recommended for control of roof water run off. Nailing Instructions • Apply siding to wall assemblies with stud spacing no greater than 16 in. O.C. Fasten the siding at each stud according to the following steps. • Begin by nailing a starter strip (approximately 3/8 in. x 1-1/2 in.), flush with bottom edge of sill plate. For random drip edge: Starting from left to right, level and install the first course of siding so random edge is no more than 1/2 in. below the shim. Trim left edge so that siding sec- tion fits against corner board, with a 3/16 in. gap, and so that opposite shiplap edge falls on a stud for nailing. For straight drip edge: Starting from right to left, level and install the first course of siding so straight edge is no more than 1/2 in. below the shim. Trim right edge so that siding section fits against corner board, with a 3/16 in. gap, and so that opposite shiplap edge falls on a stud for nailing. Use “alignment notch” in shiplap edge as automatic guide to lap each siding course. Lap a minimum of 1-3/4 in. to bottom of notch, as shown. Nail 3/4 in. from bottom edge to pen- etrate both siding courses. • Start subsequent courses in same manner but trim each course to effect staggered joints. Best appearance is obtained by trimming second course starter piece 16 in. shorter than the first course and trimming the third course starter piece 32 in. shorter than the first. Repeat this same sequence every three courses. • DO NOT OVERDRIVE NAILS. Nail head should seat firmly to face of siding, but not be overdriven to distort the siding surface. • All siding joints must fall on studs. • At shiplap edges, double nailing is required. Application instructions (cont.) • Install kick-out flashing to direct the water into the gutter • Install step flashing with minimum 4 in. upper leg • Properly integrate flashing with the secondary water-resistive barrier. Use housewrap, flashing tape, z-flashing, or other items as needed to maintain the counterflashing principle. • DO NOT extend the siding or trim into the kick-out flashing or gutter • Maintain a clearance between the end of the gutter and the adjoining wall to allow for proper maintenance of the siding • Prime and paint ALL exposed cut edges Kick-Out Flashing DO • Prime and paint all exposed surfaces including all drip edges or where water will hang. • Apply finish coat as soon as possible or within 180 days of application. • High-quality acrylic latex paint, specially formulated for use on wood and engineered wood substrates, is highly recommended. Semi-gloss or satin finish oil or alkyd paints are acceptable. For flat alkyd paint, please check with the coating manufacturer for their recommendations for use on composite wood siding. • Follow the coating manufacturer’s application and maintenance instructions. Finishing Instructions LP Siding Minimum 1" clearance between trim and roofing Clean rain gutter Do not run trim or siding inside of the kick out flashing DO NOT USE • Semi-transparent and transparent stains. • Shake and shingle paints. • Vinyl-based resin formulas such as vinyl acetate, PVA, vinyl acetate/acrylic copolymer paints.

Prop 65 Warning: Use of this product may result in exposure to wood dust, known to the State of California to cause cancer. • Penetrate structural framing or wood structural panels and struc- tural framing a minimum of 1-1/2 in. • Use hot-dipped galvanized nails with a minimum 0.270 in. diameter head and 0.113 in. diameter shank. • Nail at all framing members around openings (maximum spac- ing 16 in. o.c.). Shim, if necessary, to provide solid backing for siding fitted around windows, doors, and at rake cuts on gable ends. • Climb cut the surface of the siding such that the rotation of the blade cuts downward on the primed or prefinished surface. • Where siding butts window trim, door casings and masonry, etc. leave a 3/16 in. gap and seal. • For information on fastening LP SmartSide products in high wind speed areas, refer to ICC-ES Report ESR-1301 or APA Prod- uct Report PR-N124. Insulated Sheathings LP SmartSide Sidings may be installed over low-compression rigid foam or exterior gypsum. The following precautions must be fol- lowed: • Adequate bracing of the wall in accordance with the Interna- tional Codes or other ruling building code is required. • For rigid foam sheathing up to 1 in. (25.4 mm) thick, siding may be nailed directly to the foam sheathing unless a drainage plane is required by the local building code. Nail length must be increased to ensure a minimum 1-1/2 in.(38.1 mm) fastener penetration into the structural framing. • For rigid foam sheathing greater than 1 in. (25.4 mm), a minimum 1-1/2 in. (38.1 mm) thick by 3-1/2 in. (88.9 mm) wide vertical strapping or furring strip must be installed over the sheathing to provide a solid, level nailing base for the siding. The strap- ping must be securely fastened to structural framing spaced no greater than 16 in. O.C. (406 mm) with a minimum nail penetra- tion of 1-1/2 in. (38.1 mm) and a maximum nail spacing no greater than the width of the siding. Louisiana-Pacific will assume no responsibility for any damage or condition arising from the use of rigid foam or exterior gypsum. 1 in. min. clearance from roofing Min. 3/16 in. gap Trim Paint bottom edges4 in. min. flashing Roof Flashing Detail gap 3/16 in.and seal gap 3/16 in.and seal Breathable water-resistant barrier 1 in. 3/8 in.
