## Summary

The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Cumbria commissioned roof repair works at Kendal Police Station. The scheme addresses the roof’s deteriorating condition and the resulting risk of water ingress, damage to the building, disruption to policing operations and rising maintenance costs. The purpose is to protect the building and keep it safe, compliant and fit for operational use. The requirement is construction work focused on repairing the police station roof. Delivery is at Kendal Police Station, in Kendal, Cumbria.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The Commissioner used a below-threshold limited competition for a single lot. Frederick Potts & Son Limited was selected, and the contract was signed on 23 September 2026. Its value is £142,396 excluding VAT, or £170,875.20 including VAT. The contract period runs from 5 October to 2 November 2026. The recorded award is active. The procurement information does not set out evaluation criteria or a scoring basis.

This award shows demand from Cumbria’s police, fire and crime commissioner for targeted roof repairs to maintain operational public-sector buildings and prevent water ingress, building-fabric damage and disruption. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical roofing and construction capability suited to repairs on an occupied police estate, with the ability to protect ongoing operations and deliver safe, compliant work to a defined scheme. The selected supplier was a small or medium-sized business, demonstrating that this type of requirement was delivered by an SME. Suppliers with relevant roof-repair experience, suitable delivery capacity and a track record of working safely in operational buildings are well placed to compete when this specific requirement returns to market.
