Description
The West Virginia Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation is seeking bids for a roof replacement project at the South Central Regional Jail. The project involves removing and discarding the existing roof system, including the roof membrane, flashings, coping, counter-flashings, and insulation, and installing a new 2-ply modified bitumen roof replacement system. The contractor will also be responsible for raising curbs, plumbing stacks, utility lines, gas lines, and equipment supports to provide sufficient flashing height to meet manufacturer's requirements and accommodate new insulation thickness. The project includes installing tapered insulation systems, modified bitumen base and cap sheets, and new shop-fabricated counterflashings, metal coping, scuppers, and downspouts.
Key aspects of the project include:
* Removing and salvaging river rock ballast for owner's reuse
* Installing tapered crickets, saddles, and sumps where specified on the roof plan
* Installing rigid insulation on the structurally sloped gym roof
* Providing temporary weather protection during the interval between removal of existing items and installation of new items
* Maintaining water tightness and providing protection at any openings in the roof left at the end of each construction day
* The contractor shall employ certified mechanical and electrical contractors to remove and reinstall mechanical equipment and recharge systems as required.
