About this file

This is an addendum to the Invitations for Bid issued by the Town of Bridgewater, Massachusetts for roof replacement at the Plymouth Street Fire Station. Addendum No. 2, dated September 29, 2026, clarifies two key scope items for bidders submitting proposals. The addendum addresses the inclusion of gutter and downspout replacement in roofing estimates, confirming that bidders shall include replacement of these components using provided measurements. The addendum also specifies that the roofing contractor shall be responsible for removing and reinstalling lightning rods as part of the roofing work, with the Town arranging for a separate qualified contractor to inspect and verify proper installation and functionality of the lightning protection system upon completion. Bidders are reminded to acknowledge this addendum on their bid forms.

The addendum serves to eliminate ambiguity in the original scope of work and reduce potential disputes regarding contractor responsibilities for gutters, downspouts, and lightning rod work. These clarifications are essential for bidders to prepare accurate cost estimates and ensure consistent bid submissions based on uniform project requirements.

Answer: Yes. Bidders shall include replacement of the gutters and downspouts in their roofing estimates using the measurements provided.

2. Lightning rods: How should the lightning rods be handled? Should the roofer be responsible for removing and reinstalling them, or should they be responsible for having a qualified company inspect and verify that they are properly wired after the roofing work is completed?
