Alameda Park Slide Restoration

Butler County, Pennsylvania, is soliciting sealed bids for the restoration of the waterslide at Alameda Park Pool located at 184 Alameda Road, Butler, PA 16001, with bids due electronically via PennBid by May 28, 2026, at 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time. The project requires full restoration of the slide surface, including high-pressure washing, hand and power tool preparation, rust conversion, application of Sherwin Williams Macropoxy 646 epoxy primer, and one coat of Sherwin Williams Sherloxane 800 polysiloxane hybrid topcoat in a color and sheen approved by the County; all replacement parts must be sourced from Natural Structures or another pre-approved supplier. Bidders must submit their proposals using the County’s official bid forms, accompanied by a certified check or bid bond equal to 10% of the bid amount, along with a Contractor’s Qualification Statement, Non-Collusion Affidavit, Public Works Employment Verification Form, and signed Form of Agreement. No bids submitted outside PennBid will be accepted, and all bids are binding for 30 days following opening. The estimated project cost exceeds $25,000, requiring compliance with Pennsylvania prevailing wage rates as outlined in the bid package. The County reserves the right to reject any or all bids and waive minor irregularities. The solicitation is restricted to small businesses, with bidders required to certify their size status through the E-Verify system for all employees hired after January 1, 2013, and affirm under penalty of law that their bids were not collusive. The contract will be awarded on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis, with compliance being the primary gating criterion and price serving as the decisive factor among qualified bidders. Work must commence within ten days of notice to proceed and be substantially completed within 45 days, with full completion due within 15 additional calendar days thereafter. Inspection and acceptance occur on-site, with the County retaining authority to reject nonconforming materials or work and require corrections at the contractor’s expense. Contractors must maintain insurance and warrant title to all materials, indemnify against patent infringement claims, and certify they are not debarred or suspended. While payment will be processed based on monthly requisitions with a 10% retention until final completion, no formal payment office details, accounting codes, or electronic invoicing systems are specified.
