Summary of the contracting process

VIVID Housing Ltd procured remedial and repair works to balconies at Tices Meadow in Aldershot, under Phase 1 of the programme. The scope covered applying a new waterproofing finish, redecorating balcony railings and handrails, renewing rainwater goods, and renewing balcony soffits. This is a construction and refurbishment requirement, including specialist trade construction works and associated building work. The work is for a housing provider and is delivered at its Tices Meadow residential site in Aldershot. Businesses relevant to this requirement include building refurbishment contractors and specialist balcony repair contractors with the capability to carry out waterproofing, external redecoration, rainwater-goods renewal and soffit replacement as a coordinated package of works.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition. One lot was evaluated on quality weighted at 70% and cost weighted at 30%. Five bids were received, all five reaching the final stage and all five from SMEs. The estimated tender value was £180,000 excluding VAT (£216,000 including VAT). The award was made to J B Specialist Refurbishments Limited on 6 July 2026 for £153,493.35 excluding VAT (£184,192.02 including VAT). The award period was 1 September to 31 October 2026. The contract was signed on 1 September 2026 and its recorded contract period runs from 21 September to 30 November 2026. VIVID Housing Ltd is the buying organisation.

This completed award demonstrates demand from VIVID Housing Ltd for planned, specialist refurbishment of occupied or residential balcony assets, with the requirement grouped as a single works package. A credible future competitor would need to deliver balcony waterproofing, railing and handrail redecoration, rainwater-goods renewal and soffit replacement, while managing the interfaces between these activities and maintaining a consistently high standard of workmanship. The evaluation places greater emphasis on quality than cost, so suppliers should be able to evidence robust methods, sound inspection and quality-control arrangements, and relevant experience delivering comparable refurbishment or remedial construction work. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that a suitably capable smaller specialist contractor can compete for this type of housing-maintenance requirement.
