MEMO #1007: Mold and Roof Bids - 9/14/02

Our clients and the M&M contractors are requiring that we include measurements with all bids to remove or clean mold and to tarp, patch, or replace a roof. It is very important that you be specific when providing these bids. If any required information is missing from a bid, the M&M will demand a revised bid without granting the client an extension, possibly delaying conveyance.

When bidding mold removal, please be sure to include the following:

  • A description of exactly what is being completed (are you just cleaning, applying any type of sealant (Kilz), removing, or replacing?)
  • The number of rooms affected and the dimensions of the affected area

When bidding roof tarp, repair (patch), or replacement, please include the following:

  • Dimensions of area being tarped, repaired, or replaced
  • When repairing (patching), be specific about what repairs will be completed and how they will be accomplished (are you installing rolled roofing, shingles, applying roof sealant or tar, etc.?)
  • When bidding to replace a roof, be specific. Include the type of roof (shingle, flat, tile), the number of squares being replaced, and a description of the work being performed (are you going over the existing roof or tearing off to the sheathing and replacing?)


We can eliminate unnecessary calls and trips to the property if this information is provided at the time the bid is submitted. If any of the above information is not included in your update, we will request that you provide the missing information, and the order will remain open until all the required information is collected.

Finally, as you know, photos are always required to support any work bid or damages reported. Please be certain you have provided photos of the damaged roof to support your bid to tarp, patch, or replace.

If you have any questions, please contact your regional coordinator. Thank you for your cooperation.
