Observation: Cedar shakes or shingles have ”bled” through paint or stain applied by remodeler.
Performance Standard: Resins and extractives bleeding through paint or stain, or blackening of shakes or shingles is unacceptable since bleeding can be controlled by treatment with primers or water-repellent sealers. This performance standard does not apply if “natural weathering” is specified for the job.
Corrective Measure: One time during the warranty period the remodeler will clean and treat shakes to provide a reasonable appearance and prevent further bleeding.
