The tender falls under the services category and is set to take place in the region of UKH21, United Kingdom. Interested parties are invited to a "Meet The Buyer" online event via MS Teams on 6th November 2025. Key milestones include registering interest for this engagement by 29th October 2025. The contract, valued at £384,000 gross, is planned to commence on 2nd January 2026 and conclude by 1st January 2030. This tender offers notable business growth opportunities for qualified cleaning service providers, especially those adept at rendered wall maintenance and high-rise abseil cleaning. Companies specialising in pest-control services may also find opportunities given the requirements for installing pigeon spikes. The procurement is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as specified in the lot's suitability criteria. The contract necessitates a high standard of execution to ensure cleanliness, safety, and compliance. Participating in this project could enhance a business's profile and lead to long-term collaboration opportunities with Luton Council. ## Notice Luton Council will be going out to tender for Cleaning of Silicone Render to Low Rise and Medium Rise Buildings & Abseil Cleaning of all High Rise Blocks. The council would like to engage with suitably qualified and experienced cleaning contractors to design and deliver proposals for the following services: 1. Rendered Wall Cleaning To provide a detailed proposal and undertake the cleaning and maintenance of rendered walls on blocks of flats, ensuring they are maintained in a good state of repair and appearance. 2. Abseil Cleaning of High-Rise Buildings To provide specialist abseil cleaning services for all Council-owned high-rise residential buildings featuring full metal cladding, ensuring that all works are completed to a high standard of cleanliness, safety, and compliance. 3. Window Cleaning To carry out the external cleaning of windows on Council-owned residential blocks, including high-rise properties, using appropriate access methods such as abseil, reach-and-wash, or other approved techniques. All works must be undertaken to ensure a streak-free finish and to maintain the overall aesthetic of the buildings. 4. Pigeon Spikes - Replacement and Re-Fixing To inspect, clean, and, where required, replace or securely re-fix pigeon deterrent spikes using permanent fixings as agreed with the Council.
