Gilbert House Roof Project - Historical Park

The City of Farmers Branch is seeking bids for the Gilbert House Roof Project at the Historical Park. The project involves removing and replacing the current roof on the 1856 Gilbert House and McKee Addition, including the breezeway between both structures. The scope of work includes removal of the current roof, various repairs, installation of new trusses if needed, and installation of wood plank decking, underlayment, flashing, and Cedar shingle roof. The city is requesting a line-item quote for cedar shingles, and the rest of the scope will follow plans. • The project requires a warranty period of at least five years for labor and a minimum guarantee by the manufacturer on shingles. • The vendor will be responsible for addressing warranty claims within 24 hours of notification and scheduling repairs to suit the City's schedule. • The city understands that proper maintenance is essential to maintain the warranty. • The project is scheduled to take place from September 14 - 30, 2026.
