Summary of the contracting process

Melton Borough Council commissioned housing maintenance and improvement works across its housing stock in Melton Mowbray. The requirement covered day-to-day repairs to existing homes, including repairs identified through housing health and safety surveys; void works to make homes ready for immediate reoccupation to the Council’s Void Quality Standard; and full replacement of kitchens and bathrooms in occupied properties. The Council also offered a combined-lot route for suppliers able to undertake all three workstreams. Void works were required to be delivered directly by the main contractor, without subcontracting. The scope is residential construction, building installation and repair and maintenance work (CPV 50700000).

The procurement was run as an open procedure and has been awarded; contracts are active and signed. Day-to-day repairs went to Jeakins Weir Limited for £5,567,625; void works went to Gratton Construction Limited for £5,912,396; and kitchen and bathroom replacements went to Foster Property Maintenance Limited for £9,730,458. Each contract runs from 5 September 2026 to 31 March 2031, with an option to extend to 31 March 2033 subject to supplier performance. The awards were dated 6 February 2026. Suppliers could bid for an individual lot or up to two lots, or bid for all three through the combined-lot option. Evaluation weighted quality at 50%, social value at 10% and price at 40%.

This work suits property maintenance and construction contractors able to manage occupied social housing repairs, turn void properties around to a defined quality standard, or deliver coordinated kitchen and bathroom replacements. The three awards show that Melton Borough Council buys these services both as distinct workstreams and through an all-in-one arrangement, with sustained delivery across its housing stock. Credible competitors need the operational capacity to plan and complete multiple jobs on time and in full, maintain tenant satisfaction, and evidence strong quality and social value alongside competitive pricing. For void work, the Council’s stated requirement was direct delivery by the main contractor, so a supplier relying on subcontractors for that work would not match the specified model. The successful suppliers included small and medium-sized businesses, indicating that this scale was not limited to the largest contractors.
