Summary of the contracting process

Cumberland Council procured roof replacement works at Beckstone Primary School on Eadie Street, Harrington, Workington. The requirement was to remove the existing felt roof system and install a new proprietary three-ply built-up roofing system across the school site. The work is classified as construction work and is for delivery in the Workington area. The council is the public-sector buyer. The project concerns a school premises, so the scope is focused on planned roofing construction rather than general building maintenance or routine facilities management. Businesses relevant to this procurement include roofing contractors and principal building contractors with the technical capability to replace a school roof system and manage works across an occupied education site.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a below-threshold procedure. One lot was awarded to ROLAND HILL (PARSONBY) LIMITED. The award was made on 17 July 2026, and the contract was signed on 17 July 2026. The contract is active and runs from 20 July 2026 to 3 September 2026. Its value is £217,707 excluding VAT, or £261,248.40 including VAT. The planned works were expected to take place over two summer break periods, in 2026 and 2027. The award covers the complete roof replacement requirement at Beckstone Primary School. The contracting process used a single completed lot, with the selected supplier responsible for delivering the specified roofing works for Cumberland Council.

This procurement demonstrates a substantial local-authority requirement for specialist roof replacement at a primary school, delivered within tightly defined school-holiday working windows. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical experience replacing felt roofs with proprietary three-ply built-up roofing systems, together with the workforce, supervision and supply-chain capacity to complete a school-site project safely and efficiently. Relevant firms would also need to plan around education-site constraints, coordinate access and sequencing across the whole site, and manage delivery without disrupting pupils or teaching. The awarded supplier was recorded as an SME, indicating that businesses of this scale can compete for the council’s roofing works when they can demonstrate appropriate technical delivery capability and reliable project management.
