OBJECTIVE
This request for proposal (RFP) document has been developed to design and implement roofing replacement and drainage
repairs and/or replacement for the roof and associated components.
OVERVIEW
Bedford Park District is planning to update HVAC and roofing and draining at its facility at 6652 S. 78th Avenue in August 2023. The primary goals for this scope and request for proposal include replacing the roof for the facility and repairing or replacing the roof drainage system. There will be required coordination between the selected HVAC contractor (not included in this RFQ) and the awarded roofing contractor for logistics.
The objective of this project is to remove and replace 19,400 square feet of the existing Built-Up roofing system for the 3 adjoining buildings outlined in this project and provide warranty. The roofing scope will include replacement and/or redesign of drainage system on the roof, as the current system is not effective to maintain runoff of wastewater and keep sewer gases out of the building. The Bedford Park District (BPD) is looking for the most cost-effective solution to ensure appropriate water drainage for the existing facility which includes the pitched auditorium roof. Replacement of the peaked auditorium roofing is not part of the scope of this project.
A run-off calculation will be required to be completed and provided by the contractor to verify the proposed design is sufficient per Village of Bedford Park permitting requirements. There is currently significant water pooling, bubbling, and “soft” areas throughout the rooftop. There is some expected damage below some areas of the existing roofing that we are expecting to be replaced and repaired. A cost-effective solution must be provided to address the large amount of surface run-off.
