Summary of the contracting process

North Tyneside Council procured kitchen and bathroom installation works for the Forest Hall Balliol Glebe Estate. The requirement is construction and fitting work within residential properties, focused on renewing kitchens and bathrooms. Delivery is in the North East of England. This is a council housing improvement contract, rather than a purchase of standalone construction materials. The named estate provides the project location; the release identifies the wider North East as the delivery area. The work is relevant to contractors able to undertake kitchen and bathroom installations for a local authority, including the associated construction work needed to complete those installations.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Buston and Maughan Ltd. The council used a selective call-off from a framework agreement, following a mini-competition. The award was made on 16 September 2026, with a contract period from 5 October 2026 to 5 January 2027. The awarded contract value is £753,000. The original submission deadline was 9 September 2026 at noon. The process was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the work was classified as works. The procurement data does not identify an award scoring breakdown or separate lots, so the outcome is stated for the contract as a whole.

This award demonstrates demand from North Tyneside Council for estate-wide kitchen and bathroom installation work delivered through a framework call-off and mini-competition. A credible competitor when this requirement returns to market would need to show the capacity to coordinate multiple installations across a housing estate and complete both kitchen and bathroom work within a short, defined programme. Relevant experience in residential refurbishment and delivering works for a local authority would support a competitive offer. The selected supplier is identified as an SME, and the original procurement was marked suitable for SMEs, indicating that businesses of this scale could compete. The evidence points to a focused housing-works opportunity for contractors with installation capability and the operational capacity to manage a concentrated programme in the North East.
