ARCHITECTURE & PLANNING INTERIOR DESIGN CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT <br /> <br /> <br />May 4, 2018 <br /> <br /> <br />Mr. Joel Hanson, City Administrator <br />City of Little Canada <br />515 East Little Canada Road <br />Little Canada, Minnesota 55117 <br /> <br /> <br />RE: Recommendation for Stucco Option vs. Tuckpointing <br /> <br /> <br />Joel, based upon the bids for Tuckpointing and Painting and then the continued maintenance I <br />strongly recommend the City invest the additional $10,000 dollars and go with the Stucco option. <br />That contractor, who we work with on a regular basis, will strip the existing concrete masonry <br />walls, install 1” foam insulation, then the mesh and stucco. This will then function as a rainscreen <br />and isolate the stucco from the masonry so that cracks will not telegraph through the wall. Gausman <br />is the same contractor that filled in the original window openings. <br /> <br />Tuckpointing low Bid $ 49,500 <br />Painting low Bid $ 4,580 <br /> <br />Total $ 54,080 <br /> <br /> <br />Stucco Recommendation $ 64,580 <br />Less above Total $ 54,080 <br /> <br />Difference $ 10,000 <br /> <br /> <br />Original Bid Tab Total $130,739.56 <br /> <br />Proposed Bid Tab Total $141,339.56 <br /> (Includes additional <br /> Contingency @ 6%) <br /> <br /> <br />Thank You.
