Keith County awards courthouse roof contract to Weathercraft for $187,300
Summary
The board accepted a $187,300 bid from Weathercraft Roofing for courthouse roof replacement, approving a 20‑year workmanship/material warranty and instructing staff to require a contract with timing and performance provisions; commissioners discussed skylights and on‑site observation.
The Keith County Board of Commissioners voted to accept a $187,300 bid from Weathercraft Roofing to replace the courthouse roof.
The bid package, presented at the meeting, called for removal of existing layers, installation of 2‑inch ISO foam insulation, a high‑density cover board, and a fully adhered 60‑mil EPDM roof system with a 20‑year labor and materials warranty. The package requires crane staging and disposal of debris; payment was described as due on completion.
Commissioners advised staff to secure a written contract that includes a timeline, stage approvals and potential penalties for failure to meet milestones. County personnel will be designated to observe construction; one commissioner suggested avoiding the word “inspect” in the motion to limit liability and instead have county personnel report on progress.
The board also discussed skylight replacement as a separate line item; staff said skylights could be bid or purchased and staged prior to roof work. Weathercraft’s proposal was valid for 30 days; commissioners indicated a spring start and asked an experienced county staffer to observe installation.
The motion to accept Weathercraft’s bid passed on a unanimous roll‑call vote.
