1318 Gentry Terrace Reroof and Interior Repairs

The City of Murfreesboro is seeking sealed bids for a comprehensive reroof and interior repairs project located at 1318 Gentry Terrace, identified as ITB-08-2026, which is funded through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. The procurement involves a complete roof replacement, including removing existing shingles and underlayment, installing new fully adhered underlayment, roof shingles, gutters, downspouts, and fascia trim. Qualified licensed contractors are required to provide a lump-sum bid that encompasses all materials, labor, and equipment necessary to complete the renovation. The project specifications mandate specific roofing materials from approved manufacturers such as Grace Ice and Water Shield, GAF, Owens Corning, and CertainTeed, with precise installation requirements. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for September 24, 2025, at 11:00am at the project site, with electronic bids to be received until 2:00pm CT on October 1, 2025, via a Zoom bid opening. The contract term is set at 45 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with liquidated damages of 1% of the total contract value per day for late completion. Evaluation will likely focus on comprehensive pricing, contractor qualifications, and ability to meet detailed technical specifications.

The procurement appears to have provisions encouraging participation from local and disadvantaged businesses, particularly through Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, which prioritizes employment and contracting opportunities for lower-income residents and local businesses. Bidders must comply with federal regulations outlined in the attached Federal Clauses document, including non-discrimination policies, civil rights compliance, and equal employment opportunity standards. While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the project is funded through federal grant funds, likely from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, with potential funding considerations for qualifying contractors. Sub-recipients must adhere to strict compliance requirements, including maintaining detailed records for five years and potentially being subject to single audit requirements if federal awards exceed $750,000. The City of Murfreesboro reserves the right to reject any or all bids and to make awards based on the best interests of the municipality. Contractors will be required to provide a one-year warranty on all work and comply with comprehensive ethical and workplace safety guidelines.
