Roof Replacement Project

Bradford County, Florida is soliciting proposals for complete replacement of the low-slope roofing system on the County Courthouse building at 945 North Temple Avenue in Starke, with sealed proposals due October 27, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. EDT and a mandatory pre-bid meeting on October 13, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. in the building's north-side parking lot.

Qualified contractors must hold a valid Florida roofing contractor license, provide proof of insurance and bonding, demonstrate prior experience with government or commercial roof replacement projects within the past five years, obtain manufacturer certification, and supply three references from completed projects of comparable scope.

The scope encompasses removal and disposal of the existing roof, deck inspection and repairs, installation of new low-slope roofing materials with flashing and drainage components, rooftop door replacement, site cleanup, and final inspection. Proposals must include project approach, detailed specifications, schedule, cost proposal, warranty terms, and an OSHA-approved safety plan. A contingency cost allocation is required specifically for potential interior water damage repairs — including removal and replacement of water-damaged materials, drywall repair, insulation replacement, mold remediation if necessary, and painting — reflecting the County's stated intent to select a contractor capable of managing repairs associated with the existing roof failure.

The contract is awarded as a lump-sum agreement to a single qualified contractor. Evaluation criteria are technical approach, contractor experience, cost, warranties, and timeline. Questions are due October 20, 2026. Award is anticipated November 3, 2026. Sealed proposals must be submitted in two physical copies; electronic submissions are not accepted.
