Summary of the contracting process

Newcastle City Council procured roof renewal works at Byker Lodge on Bolam Way, Byker, Newcastle upon Tyne. The project covers removing the existing roof coverings; replacing boarding and insulation; installing a single-ply roofing system; and replacing rooflights and access hatches. Associated work includes rainwater goods and drainage connections, perimeter trims and cladding, scaffolding and site establishment, waste removal, testing and handover, plus a specified roofing performance guarantee. This is a building-roofing and specialist construction project, rather than a general maintenance service. The work is located in Newcastle upon Tyne and was procured as one package.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Hodgson Sayers Limited, a roofing contractor based in Stanley. The award was made on 1 October 2026, with a gross awarded value of £177,886.75 (£148,238.96 excluding VAT). The awarded contract period runs from 8 October to 3 December 2026. The original estimated gross value was £240,000. Newcastle City Council used an open procedure. It was a single-lot works contract, with bids assessed on quality weighted at 40% and cost weighted at 60%. Five bids were received and four reached the final stage; all four final-stage bids were from SMEs. The lot was identified as suitable for SMEs. The stated submission deadline was 28 April 2026.

For suppliers who did not win, this award shows Newcastle City Council’s demand for a complete roof-renewal package at a public building, including strip-out, new boarding and insulation, a single-ply system, rooflights, access hatches and associated rainwater and perimeter works. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate roofing qualifications and relevant experience delivering comparable renewal projects, alongside the capacity to manage scaffolding, site setup, waste, testing and handover as one coordinated job. The specified roofing performance guarantee is also part of the requirement. The evaluation placed greater weight on cost than quality, while retaining a substantial quality element, so suppliers would need a competitive price as well as a clear, technically credible delivery approach. The SME suitability and participation of SMEs in the final evaluation indicate that smaller roofing contractors could compete for this scale of work.
