Notice Description

Lot Information

Street washing Gum Removal

The City has been divided into separate areas for pricing purposes and allowing for individual areas to be cleansed outside of the contracted frequency if required. The operation is to include full width deep cleanse of identified paved & pedestrian areas, due to the sensitive nature of the infrastructure the preferred method is using high heat low pressure to include the removal from all paved areas specified within the attached appendix all staining and chewing gum deposits. All completed areas must be cleansed to a standard that does not leave any unsightly striping or stippling effects that can occur if cleansing is uneven.

Renewal: 2 x 12 month extensions available

Rows Deep Cleaning

Chester's historic Rows are a unique heritage feature of the city, elevated above street level, and of largely timber construction dating from the Tudor era. With business and residential premises both above and below, cleaning methods must ensure maximum effectiveness with minimal risk of ingress of water to the adjoining properties. Cleaning must treat the central walkway and adjacent stalls (balconies), balustrades, stairwells, ceilings, and any integrated features such as lighting and electric fixtures. The cleaning must not extend to the frontages of the private commercial premises as these are the responsibility of the associated businesses. Cleaning must remove all staining, spillages, chewing gum, cobwebs, pigeon droppings, and general dust and detritus.

Renewal: 2 x 12 month extensions available
