UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cumberland Council commissioned construction works to replace the existing felt flat-roof coverings at Kingmoor Junior School on Liddle Street in Carlisle. The scope covers the school site and requires removal and replacement with a proprietary three-ply built-up roofing system, together with replacement roof lights. This is a specialist roofing and building-envelope requirement for an education setting, involving work to an operational school estate. The awarded work is classified as construction work. Businesses relevant to this requirement include commercial roofing contractors able to undertake flat-roof replacement, roof-light installation and associated building works safely across a school site. The buyer is Cumberland Council, based in Carlisle, and the delivery location is Carlisle, Cumbria.

The procurement has completed and one contract was awarded to TOP NOTCH CONTRACTORS LIMITED. The tender was a below-threshold process; its recorded method detail is “unknown”. The award is active and the contract is active. The award date is not separately recorded, while the contract was signed on 14 July 2026. The contract runs from 20 July 2026 to 27 August 2027. Its value is £537,146.91 excluding VAT, or £644,576.29 including VAT. The requirement was issued as one lot, which is complete. The works were expected to take place over two summer-break periods, in 2026 and 2027, reflecting a phased programme designed around the school calendar. The selected supplier is a Carlisle-based SME.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Cumberland Council for substantial flat-roof renewal and roof-light replacement in a school environment. A credible competitor for similar work would need proven capability in proprietary three-ply built-up roofing systems, roof-light replacement and construction-site management, with the skills to coordinate safely around an education setting. The requirement also indicates the importance of planning and delivering a phased programme during school holiday periods, maintaining site safety, protecting the building and limiting disruption to pupils and staff. Contractors should be able to manage a sizeable school-site roofing project from preparation through completion, coordinate labour and materials across separate work periods, and provide evidence of reliable workmanship on comparable public, education or commercial roofing projects.
