About this file

This Addendum #1 document is issued by Gwinnett County, Georgia for the IWQ 030426 DOT Central Maintenance Facility Roof Repair Project. The project involves silicone recoating of an 18-year-old standing seam metal panel roof system located at 620 Winder Highway NE in Lawrenceville, Georgia, with additional interior ceiling grid replacement work. The base bid scope includes silicone recoating at all joints and flashings, tightening or replacement of existing fasteners, removal of previous failed repair areas, and installation of 144 square feet of ceiling grid components consisting of two 12-foot main tees, four 12-foot wall molds, fifteen 4-foot cross tees, and eighteen 2-foot cross tees. Contractors must also provide 12 cases of ceiling tiles for replacement work. Work is restricted to regular business hours of 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday, with any outside-hours work requiring coordination with the Gwinnett County project manager. The addendum requires acknowledgment and return with the bid submission; failure to acknowledge may result in the bid being deemed non-responsive.

The roofing contractor must submit a written warranty from the silicone coating manufacturer guaranteeing that all silicone recoating work will be completely watertight for three years from the date of substantial completion, with the manufacturer covering all repair or replacement costs for defective work due to improper materials or workmanship. All materials must be applied at a rate sufficient to achieve a 10-year warranty from the manufacturer. Equivalent substitutions for specified silicone products are acceptable if they meet or exceed all quality and performance standards as determined by Gwinnett County. The roof assessment indicates the existing system is in fair condition with approximately 10 remaining years of useful service life, featuring isolated roof leaks, deteriorated flashings, backing-out fasteners, and moderate previous repairs requiring removal before the new silicone coating application.

ADDENDUM #1

IWQ 030426, DOT Central Maintenance Facility Roof Repair Project

REVISIONS:

R1. The following requirements shall be added to Section 07 01 50 SILICONE ROOFING RE-

COATING:

Part 1 – GENERAL

1.9 WARRANTY

A. Submit to the Owner a written warranty signed by the Roofing Contractor stating that silicone recoating work shall be completely watertight for a period of three years beginning at Date of Substantial Completion. The warranty shall cover all costs for repairing and/or replacing defective work due to improper materials or workmanship.

B. All materials used in the roofing re-coating shall be approved by the silicone coating manufacturer and shall be applied at a rate required to achieve a 10-year warranty.

R2. The scope of work for the base bid shall include enough material for 144 SF of ceiling grid, comprised of the components listed below. This should be included in the lump sum amount:

• 12’ Main Tee = 2 pieces

• 12’ Wall Mold = 4 pieces

• 4’ Cross Tee = 15 pieces

• 2’ Cross Tee = 18 pieces

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS:

Q1. Are the ceiling tiles consistent throughout the entire building? Are the ceiling tiles throughout the building all the same height?

A1. Ceiling tiles are consistent throughout the building. Please refer to drawing sheet A121 included in the bid package for the ceiling heights in each area.

Q2. Are there any restrictions on working hours?

A2. Working hours will be regular business days (Monday-Friday) from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Any work outside of these hours must be coordinated with the Gwinnett County project manager.

Q3. If water is ponding behind the unit where there is a cricket will that be acceptable because the water will still be there after the coating, or will the city want someone to rework the cricket to shed the water away?

A3. The silicone was selected because it can hold ponding water until it evaporates. Modifications to the cricket are not part of the scope of work for this project.

Q4. Will the exact amount of tiles stated be used or will there be a unit price in case we go over while with the owners rep when walking to point out what tiles need to be changed?

A4. The contractor shall provide 12 cases of ceiling tiles, as shown on drawing sheet A121, which should be more tiles than required for replacement.

Q5. Will Gwinnett accept substitution requests for the silicone?

A5. All references to vendors and "approved manufacturers" are included for description of quality and content of the designated equipment/materials. Equivalent items may be accepted if they meet or exceed all standards of quality and purpose for the intended use, as determined by Gwinnett County.

This addendum should be acknowledged in the space provided below and returned with your bid. Failure to do so may result in your bid being deemed non-responsive.

RE: Roofing Assessment Report Gwinnett DOT Central Operations & Maintenance Facility 620 Winder Highway NE Lawrenceville, Georgia 30045

Assessment Date: September 29, 2025

ROOF SYSTEM: The roof system consists of an approximately 18-year-old, standing seam architectural metal panel system in overall fair condition for its age. The panels are clipped and the laps have been seamed. Ongoing repairs consist of sealants, mastics and coatings and the repairs are in various stages of failure. Fasteners at panel end laps are backing out and metal flashings show signs of deterioration. The gutters and downspouts are in overall fair condition. Isolated roof leaks were reported by management.

RECOMMENDATIONS: The roof system has approximately 10 remaining years useful service life provided adequate repairs are completed. The metal panel system could benefit from a coating application at all joints and flashings. In addition, the following repairs should be considered.

• Tighten or replace existing fasteners as required.

• Remove previous repair areas where loose fabric exists.

• Clean/prepare the roof surface and apply a single application of Silicone coating.

Silicone coating will only accept additional applications of silicone coating in the future and can withstand areas of standing water.

• Clean/descale gutter interiors and seal all joints prior to application of a rust inhibiting primer.

All work should be completed according to the manufacturer’s written instructions.
