Summary of the contracting process

South Tyneside Borough Council is seeking building refurbishment and alteration works to convert a house on East Boldon Road, Boldon, for use as a respite foster care facility. The project includes extensive stripping out and reconfiguration of the main house, replacement finishes, mechanical and electrical work, sanitary installations, external alterations and redecoration. The existing outbuilding is also to be converted into habitable space, with a WC, utility and laundry area, additional storage and internal alterations to the house. A new kitchen and bathroom are required, alongside full refurbishment and decoration. The works are to be delivered in Boldon, in South Tyneside.

The buyer invited tenders through an open competition. The enquiry deadline was 6 November 2026 at 12:00, and the tender submission deadline was 13 November 2026 at 12:00. The contract is scheduled to run from 11 January to 8 March 2027. Its estimated value is £81,000 excluding VAT (£97,200 including VAT). The procurement is a single lot. Evaluation is weighted 80% on price and 20% on quality. Bids are to be submitted through the OPEN system; electronic submission is allowed.

This opportunity is suited to small and medium-sized building contractors able to manage a coordinated refurbishment of an existing home, rather than a new-build project. Relevant capability includes internal strip-out and reconfiguration, installing replacement finishes, and delivering mechanical, electrical and sanitary works alongside kitchen and bathroom replacement. Suppliers should also be equipped to alter the exterior, redecorate throughout and convert an outbuilding into usable living space, including fitting a WC and utility or laundry area. The scope calls for the trades and site coordination needed to complete work across the main house and outbuilding as one project. The stated quality element means bidders should address the quality of their proposed delivery as well as their price.
