Roof Replacement - Stokes (2905 NW 4th Ave)

The City of Ocala Community Development Services Department is seeking quotes through RFQ# CDS/260363 for a comprehensive roof replacement and residential rehabilitation project located at 2905 NW 4th Ave in Ocala, Florida. The procurement targets Florida-licensed General or Building/Roofing Contractors to perform complete roof replacement and associated rehabilitation work for an owner-occupied residence. Specific deliverables include tearing off the existing roof to the deck, repairing damaged areas, installing new roof sheathing (up to 608 square feet), replacing fascia/rafter tails, adding hurricane ties, installing new asphalt shingles with a 130 MPH wind rating and 30-year warranty, and completing related exterior improvements. Contractors must obtain all necessary permits, pass city inspections, and comply with Florida Building Code requirements. The project has a mandatory completion timeline of 30 days from the Notice to Proceed, with a non-mandatory pre-bid meeting scheduled for January 15, 2026, at 10:00 AM at the project site. Bid responses are due by January 22, 2026, at 2:00 PM, and award will be made to the lowest responsive bidder meeting all specified requirements.

The contract appears to be funded through a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors must demonstrate a minimum of three years' experience in residential rehabilitation services and provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including Commercial General Liability with $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate limits, Commercial Auto Liability with $1,000,000 combined single limits, and Workers' Compensation insurance as required by Florida Statutes. The project includes a permit cost allowance of $100.00 and requires the selected contractor to maintain a twelve-month material and labor warranty. Liquidated damages of $250.00 per calendar day will be assessed for work not completed within the specified timeframe, and the contractor must perform a minimum of 30% of the work using their own workforce. While specific budget details are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive scope of work suggests a substantial rehabilitation project encompassing roofing, potential HVAC, water heater replacement, insulation, windows, painting, and other interior and exterior improvements.
