The Milford School Committee received an update Thursday from the facilities subcommittee on the high school roof and plans to secure immediate repairs while commissioning a deeper assessment.

Committee members said the subcommittee met with facilities staff and reviewed five vendor calls. The districts current roof vendor, Tremco, performed an infrared (moisture) reading in February 2022; the committee requested an updated infrared survey and additional spot checks to determine moisture content and the roofs condition. Facilities staff were asked to obtain quotes for both immediate localized repairs (for areas such as the hallway outside the meeting room and over the front doors) and a broader assessment to plan for end-of-life work.

Members noted the roofs expected life is typically 18–20 years and that the existing roof is approximately 22–23 years old in parts. The plan described during the meeting is twofold: address urgent localized leaks promptly and then evaluate the whole roof to inform long-term decisions.

No vote was taken; the committee asked facilities to return cost estimates and assessment results for future consideration.
