Wilkes County Board approves $327,000 roofing contract for Millers Creek Elementary
Summary
On July 7, 2025 the Wilkes County Board of Education awarded a $327,000 contract to Nations Roof to replace the front canopy roof and one-third of the office building at Millers Creek Elementary, with a contractor-stated 30-day completion window to finish work before school starts.
The Wilkes County Board of Education on July 7 approved awarding a $327,000 contract to Nations Roof to replace the front canopy roof and one-third of the office building at Millers Creek Elementary School. The motion to approve the vendor was made by Vice-Chairman Kirk Walker and seconded by board member Joan Caudill; the motion carried.
Bids for the project were opened July 2 at the office of Wolf Trail Engineering in Monroe. Ten firms submitted proposals; Nations Roof was the apparent low bidder with a baseline price of $327,000. The contractor listed 30 calendar days to complete the specified work, which the board noted aligns with the district’s timeline to finish the project before the start of school. Meeting minutes state the district has not previously worked with Nations Roof but obtained a letter of recommendation from Wolf Trail Engineering.
The board’s action formally awards the contract “as presented.” The minutes do not specify contract execution details such as a signed contract date, payment milestones, or contingencies. The board took the vote during a special called meeting held by phone at 12:00 PM and adjourned at 12:10 PM.
Next steps: award documentation and any contract approvals by district staff were not detailed in the minutes and were listed as not specified.
