Notice Title

CPU 7375 Provision of Pipework Inspection, Renewal and Repair of Water Services

Notice Description

The successful contractor is expected to carry out repairs (and or replacements) to pipework and services association with the supply of water to and within Council owned stock / HRA land. This includes stop taps, point of entries and underground pipework. Some of the work will be in response to section 75 notices received by the local water authority (Severn Trent Water). These will need investigating and rectifying within the prescribed timescales. We also require the Contractor to liaise with STW or other local water authority to confirm findings or remedial work undertaken in relation to the Section 75. If the fault is found to be a non-Council managed property or non HRA land i.e. private owner occupier then the Contractor is expected to inform Nottingham City Council, the tenant, the owner occupier as well as the local water authority.
