About this file

This Scope of Work document issued by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources pertains to the replacement of window units across six historically significant cabins at Lake of Three Fires State Park in Taylor County. The project encompasses the replacement of 36 total window units consisting of 24 single-hung operable windows (Window A, approximately 30x46 inches), 6 picture windows (Window B, approximately 32x24 inches), and 6 privacy picture windows (Window C, approximately 28x32 inches). Work includes removal of existing windows, inspection and repair of structural framing for rot and damage, installation of manufacturer-approved flashings, concealed spray foam insulation, and matching of new interior and exterior trim to existing specifications. New windows must be factory-fabricated wood units from approved manufacturers (Pella Corporation, Marvin Windows, Quaker Window Products, Lincoln Windows, or Kolbe Windows) meeting Performance Class R with a Performance Grade of 30, maximum U-value of 0.35, double-glazed Low-E coated argon-filled glass, and acoustic performance rating of at least 38 OITC. Electronic proposals must be submitted by 3:00 PM on Thursday, February 26, 2026, with project completion required by June 11, 2026. Work is restricted to Monday through Thursday only, with no work permitted May 25–28 or on weekends; all windows in a cabin must be completed by end of business Thursday to prevent disruption of public cabin usage.

Contractors must submit shop drawings and manufacturer certificates to the DNR Field Engineer for review prior to ordering windows and must provide evidence of AAMA, WDMA, or CSA certification, with both manufacturer and installer demonstrating at least three years of documented experience. Performance bonds equal to 100 percent of the contract price are required for contracts at or above $25,000, and contractors must maintain liability and property damage insurance with minimum coverage of $250,000 per person and per occurrence, with aggregate coverage of $500,000. A 5-year manufacturer warranty is required for insulated glass units against seal failure, and a 2-year warranty covers color degradation and finish delamination. Liquidated damages of $1,000 per calendar day are assessed for work not completed by the specified deadline. The contract will be awarded on a lump-sum basis with payment made within 30 days of approval. No specific set-aside designations, incumbent vendors, or budget amount is disclosed in the available documentation.

SCOPE OF WORK

Goal of project:

Scope of work includes replacement of casement and picture window units in six (6) cabins at the state park. Each of the cabins are historically significant, and this window replacement work has been approved by the State Historical Preservation Office (SHPO). As such, new window units must match the detailing and characteristics of the existing windows as much as possible. Each existing window will be removed. The head, jamb, and sill framing will be inspected for rot, plumbness and damage.

Surrounding interior and exterior trims, sealants, flashings, and finishes shall also be inspected for damage. Items found to be damaged shall be repaired prior to installing new window units. New units shall be ordered to manufacturer Rough Opening (RO) standards and standard unit elevations. Custom window sizes are not anticipated and only standard window sizes should be accounted for during bidding (Note: If custom window sizes are appropriate, additional costs will be coordinated between DNR and contractor). Contractor shall submit shop drawings to DNR Field Engineer for review prior to ordering windows. Manufacturer approved head, jamb and sill flashings are required for new installations. Concealed expanding spray foam shall be used to insulate and seal between window unit frame and structural wall framing. Spray foam must be concealed and not visible from exterior or interior of building upon completion of work. Carefully removed existing interior/exterior window trim free of rot or deterioration may be reused where applicable. New, replacement interior/exterior trim to match existing trim saw marks texture, stain tone, lacquer or sealant, and profile. Exterior shutters to be removed, safely stored, and reinstalled similarly by contractor.

Door glazing replacement not required.

Window schedule as follows:

(Window sizes are approximate for estimating purposes and will need to be field verified and approved via shop drawings prior to ordering)

Window A (Qty. 4 per cabin): (2)3046 Single-Hung (Operable) – Replicate Muntins with similar SDL’s at exterior and interior at all window locations. Include SDL’s in all single-hung windows.

Window B (Qty. 1 per cabin): 3224 Picture Window (Non-Operable) - Replicate Muntins with similar SDL’s at exterior and interior at all window locations. Include SDL’s in all picture windows.

Window C (Qty. 1 per cabin): 2832 Picture Window (Non-Operable) - w/obscure privacy glass @ exterior IGU pane. Exterior SDL’s only.

Note: See window specification for requirements, options, and approved manufacturers.

Work restrictions It is the intent of these work restrictions to allow for use of the cabins by the public during peak periods and minimize loss of revenue to the Department.

No work is permitted Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.

No work is permitted May 25th through May 28th.

To ensure cabins remain usable by the public during the non-working periods above:

o Individual window replacement must be completed in accordance with the Contract Documents by the beginning of the non-working period.

o Do not begin a window replacement if completion in accordance with the Contract Documents by the beginning of the non-working period is uncertain.

o Not all windows in a cabin need to be replaced by the beginning of the non-work period.

For example, a cabin with three windows completed in accordance with the Contract Documents and three that have not had work begun at the end of Thursday is acceptable. In this example, the remaining windows can be completed beginning on the following Monday.

There shall be no evidence of the project in or around the cabins during the non-work periods.

This includes materials, tools, supplies, vehicles, etc. Coordinate with the Engineer a suitable storage/staging area in the park.
