The Mehlville Fire Protection District Board of Directors opened two bids last week for replacement of the roof at the district’s No. 6 engine house, 6870 Telegraph Road.
Geissler Roofing Co. of Belleville, Ill., submitted a bid of $35,300, and Lakeside Roofing Co. of Collinsville, Ill., submitted a bid of $28,958.
The district’s request for proposals, or RFP, also included an alternate — installing an “ice and water shield at all gutter edges prior to felt and shingles.”
Geissler’s price for the alternate was $400, while Lakeside’s price for the alternate was $610.
The specifications of the RFP call for the roof replacement to be completed by May 1.
At the April 3 meeting, Chief Brian Hendricks said he and his staff will review the bids for compliance with the RFP’s specifications and make a recommendation to the board at its next meeting.
The board will meet at 5 p.m. Wednesday, April 16, at the district’s headquarters, 11020 Mueller Road, Green Park.
