Summary of the contracting process

VIVID Housing Ltd is seeking a principal contractor for refurbishment works at the listed Elm Grove property in Kingsclere, Newbury. The requirement covers the building’s external windows, doors and fascias, including repairs, cleaning and decoration. The works include removing and replacing putty, rubbing down and redecorating timberwork, repairing windows and doors affected by timber decay, and repairing or replacing sash cords and weights where needed. The contractor must also repair or replace fixings, handles and bolts, and carry out internal and external redecoration. This is a building refurbishment and completion project, with the main work focused on historic window and door repair. The delivery address is Elm Grove, Kingsclere, Newbury, RG20 5RD.

The process reached tender: VIVID Housing Ltd invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Enquiries had to be submitted by 31 August 2026 at 12:00, and offers by 7 September 2026 at 12:00. Electronic submission was allowed through the buyer’s procurement portal. The contract is planned to run from 1 November 2026 to 1 March 2027. The estimated tender value is £100,000 excluding VAT, or £120,000 including VAT. There is one lot. Offers are evaluated on 70% quality and 30% price. The requirement is classified as works and includes window, door, refurbishment and building-completion activities. The project is below the relevant threshold and is subject to the listed-property refurbishment requirement.

This opportunity suits principal contractors and specialist building-refurbishment firms experienced in repairing and redecorating traditional windows and doors. Relevant capability includes timber repairs, treatment of timber decay, putty replacement, preparation and painting, sash-window mechanisms, sash cords and weights, and repair or replacement of ironmongery such as fixings, handles and bolts. Contractors should be able to coordinate both internal and external redecoration and manage the work at a listed property, where careful repair and finishing are likely to be important. The single-lot structure suits a supplier able to take overall responsibility for the works rather than provide only one isolated trade. Quality carries substantially more weight than price, so firms with a strong delivery approach and evidence of careful refurbishment work are well placed to compete.
