Wygal Hall Roof Replacement

Longwood University contracted a qualified roofing firm to replace the roof on Wygal Hall, a campus building in Farmville, VA. The work includes full removal of the existing roof system, installation of new rigid insulation, an EPDM roofing membrane, new scuppers, downspouts, a wall‑mounted ladder, and a lightning‑protection system, all performed under university construction‑site regulations.

Bowman Construction, a Virginia‑based contractor. • Scope: complete roof demolition, new EPDM membrane, insulation, drainage, ladder, lightning protection, and related site‑safety controls. • Schedule: bids due March 12 2018; substantial completion required within 70 calendar days of notice to proceed, final completion 30 days thereafter. • Requirements: Virginia contractor license, SCC ID, eVA registration, bid bond, SWaM subcontracting plan, campus safety and parking compliance. • Award: W.E. Bowman Construction, Inc. (Richmond, VA) with a total bid of approximately $199 k.
