Request for Proposal (RFP): Exterior Facade & Clerestory Repair

1. Project Overview

Location: Reeves Mill Business Park (specifically Building Sections 19, 20, and 21). Nature of Project: Permanent repair and replacement of wind-damaged upper-wall sections (clerestory/monitors) on an industrial warehouse facility.

2. Background & Scope of Work

High-wind events have caused structural and aesthetic damage to the upper vertical wall sections of the facility. Temporary plywood sheeting has been installed to mitigate weather intrusion; however, a permanent, engineered solution is now required to match the existing industrial facade and ensure long-term structural integrity.

Specific Scope Items:

Demolition: Removal and proper disposal of temporary plywood patches and any remaining damaged metal siding or substrate.

Structural Inspection: Assessment of the wooden/metal girts behind the damaged area to ensure they are sound and capable of supporting new cladding.

Installation: Supply and installation of new industrial-grade metal wall panels.

Note: Panels must match the profile, gauge, and color of the existing white/grey siding on adjacent sections (e.g., sections 17, 22).

Flashing & Sealing: Installation of new head, sill, and corner flashings to ensure a watertight seal between the roof line and the vertical wall.

Trim Work: Replacement of any damaged trim or fascia boards along the "step-down" roof transition.

3. Site-Specific Challenges

Height & Access: Work will be performed at a significant height above lower roof lines (Sections 20, 21, and 22). Contractors must provide their own lift equipment or scaffolding.

Active Site: The facility is an active business park. Coordination is required to ensure the red truck access lanes and loading areas remain clear or are safely cordoned off.

Safety: All work must comply with OSHA fall protection standards given the roof-adjacent nature of the repair.

4. Proposal Requirements

Interested contractors should include the following in their submission:

  1. Proposed Materials: Specifications of the metal panels, including gauge and finish.

  2. Timeline: Estimated start date and duration of the project.

  3. Warranty: Details on workmanship and material warranties.

  4. References: List of similar industrial/commercial siding or metal building repair projects.

  5. Cost Breakdown: Itemized pricing for labor, materials, and equipment (lifts/scaffolding).
