Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council procured mould treatment and cleaning services for its social housing. The requirement covers mould cleaning and associated minor remedial works, including preparing walls, floors and other surfaces, fungicidal washing, bio-fogging where needed, small plaster repairs when instructed, sealing and redecorating affected areas with MGC Biocheck paint in agreed colours. The service also includes supplying dehumidifiers where required and advising tenants about condensation and mould-related issues in line with Awaabs Law. This is a building cleaning, maintenance and minor building completion service, covering social housing managed by the council. The council is based at County Hall in Northallerton, North Yorkshire.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to THE DWELLING DOCTORS LTD, an SME. The award date was not recorded, but the contract was signed on 23 July 2026. The active contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £166,666.67 excluding VAT and £200,000 including VAT. The requirement was classified as services, covering building completion work, repair and maintenance of building installations, and building-cleaning services. The published outcome identifies THE DWELLING DOCTORS LTD as the selected supplier for the full requirement. The procurement used a single completed lot.

This award indicates a defined housing-maintenance requirement combining specialist mould treatment, cleaning, minor remedial building work and tenant advice. A credible competitor for comparable council work would need practical experience preparing and treating affected surfaces, carrying out fungicidal washes and bio-fogging, making small plaster repairs, applying suitable sealers and redecorating to agreed specifications. It would also need access to dehumidifiers and the ability to provide clear, useful advice to tenants on condensation and mould. Familiarity with social-housing operating environments and the obligations associated with Awaabs Law would be relevant. The successful supplier is an SME, suggesting that delivery can be organised by a focused specialist rather than only by a large national contractor. This is evidence of demand for an integrated, responsive service.
