The Town of Durham Public Works Department (DPW) seeks bids from qualified firms (Contractor) for the 2026 Crack Sealing Program. The DPW intends to enter into a contract with a qualified and responsible contractor for these services, and accordingly is furnishing herein a set of specifications by which such proposals will be evaluated. Any contractor desiring to provide such services must submit a bid following the instructions and format set forth in the bid document.
The DPW has developed a pavement preservation program that addresses pavement distresses in a timely and efficient manner in an effort to extend its deterioration curve. The first step in this process is to control the infiltration of water and moisture into the roadway’s subsurface layers through cracks that develop in the pavement. The filling of cracks with a hot, liquid, rubberized asphalt material, or crack sealing, preserves the pavement and prolongs the need for more extensive repair.
The crack sealing services sought are for calendar year 2026.
The crack sealing services are to be completed no later than May 31st, 2026.
The maximum level of the base crack sealing services cannot exceed $30,000.
Instructions
The DPW will accept bids through 11:30 AM EST on Tuesday, February 17th, 2026, at which time they will be opened publicly and read aloud. In the event Town Offices are closed due to inclement weather on Tuesday, February 17th, 2026, the due date will be extended one business day to Wednesday, February 18th, 2026 at 11:30 AM EST.
All bids must be on the proposal form found on page eight (8) and must be submitted in person or by mail by the specified time and date. Bids received that are not on forms prepared by the DPW will be rejected.
No performance bond is required.
