Summary of the contracting process

Alliance Norse Limited, with Norse Commercial Services Ltd carrying out the procurement, commissioned roofing repair and associated refurbishment works at Pavilion Gardens in Buxton. The requirement covered replacing traditional pitched slate roofs and flat roof systems, carefully removing defective coverings, installing materials compatible with the Grade II listed building, and completing detailing, interfaces and weatherproofing. It also included refurbishment of the toilet accommodation and all works needed to provide a complete, compliant and durable roofing solution. Delivery had to account for the building’s heritage significance, its continued public use and the protection of sensitive internal areas, including conservatory plants and fish. The procurement is categorised as construction works, including roof repair, maintenance and refurbishment.

The procurement is complete and was run as a below-threshold open competition. Four bids were received, with three reaching the final stage, including three from SMEs. The tender deadline was 3 July 2026 at 11:00, following an enquiry deadline of 8 June 2026 at 17:00. One lot was evaluated on price at 60%, quality at 30% and social value at 10%. The estimated value was £700,000 excluding VAT, or £840,000 including VAT. The contract was awarded on 30 July 2026 to Craftsman Restoration Ltd trading as UK Restoration Services for £761,658.80 excluding VAT, or £913,990.56 including VAT. The awarded contract period runs from 24 August 2026 to 26 February 2027.

This award demonstrates demand from Alliance Norse for substantial, specialist roofing and refurbishment work in a heritage and publicly used building. A credible future competitor would need proven capability in both traditional pitched slate roofs and flat roof systems, including careful removal, compatible replacement materials, weatherproofing, interfaces and detailed finishing. Experience of working on Grade II listed or otherwise sensitive buildings would be important, particularly where construction must protect valuable internal environments and allow continued public use. Suppliers should also be able to deliver associated building refurbishment, including sanitary accommodation, rather than roofing in isolation. The evaluation shows that strong quality and social value propositions matter alongside a competitive price, and the participation of SMEs indicates that this scale can suit established specialist contractors.
