    I would have thought the repairs should start at the roof, assuming the damages were caused by water.

    “Nothing against JNB Contractors, but just curious why they didn’t award this to a local Escambia county contractor instead of a company 2 1/2 hours away in another state? Did no one bid or were the bids out of line? Just asking.”

    We went back and looked for you.

    There were 481 emails sent notifying 360 companies.

    There was a second company that was listed as “non-responsive” with no bidand a third company that only bid on part of the project. Only JNB submitted a bit for the entire project, per the county documents.
