Housing rehabilitation construction

Alleghany County is seeking a General Contractor for a housing rehabilitation construction project funded through a $750,000 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG-NR) from the North Carolina Department of Commerce. The project targets rehabilitation of approximately 6 low/moderate income, owner-occupied single-family properties within specific designated areas (AC#1 through AC#6). Qualified and licensed General Contractors are invited to submit comprehensive property rehabilitation bids that include extensive renovation services such as electrical and plumbing system upgrades, HVAC installations, insulation improvements, structural repairs, and exterior enhancements including new siding, doors, windows, and roofing systems. The bid submission deadline is set for Friday, November 14th, 2025, with bid opening scheduled for Monday, November 17th, 2025 at 10:00 AM at the Lilesville Fire Department. Contractors will be required to participate in virtual inspections and meetings with the Town of Lilesville and Centralina Regional Council, ensuring strict compliance with established work standards and project specifications.

The project is specifically designed for licensed General Contractors, with bid packages and contractor applications available through Centralina's and Lilesville's websites. While no specific set-aside designations are explicitly mentioned, the project's focus on low/moderate income housing suggests potential preference for contractors with experience in community development and affordable housing rehabilitation. The project is funded through Grant #20-C-3635 from the Rural Economic Development Division, with a total grant value of $750,000 allocated for construction activities. Contractors will need to demonstrate technical capability, compliance with local and state regulations, and ability to complete comprehensive property rehabilitation within the specified scope. The project will be managed by Matthew Rea from the Centralina Regional Council, who will oversee contractor selection, project implementation, and adherence to grant requirements and rehabilitation standards.
