The work is intended to improve the thermal performance of 37 council-owned, tenanted two- and three-bedroom houses at Llwyn Helyg and Llwyn Derw in Garden City, Fforest-fach, Swansea. The homes were built in 1925 and 1964 and have traditional cavity-wall construction; the existing insulation is insufficient to meet current Welsh Housing Quality Standard requirements. Swansea Council’s appointed design and project management team has prepared the scheme to bring the properties in line with those standards. The procurement is classified as construction and plastering work (CPV 45410000). The buyer invited tenders through an open competition. The procurement is a single lot, and the tender evaluation assigns 80% to price, covering the price list and compensation event assessment, and 20% to quality: technical capability (5%), project-specific matters (10%) and compliance with CDM Regulations 2015 (5%). The deadline for clarification enquiries was 17 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC; tenders were due by 24 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract period is scheduled to run from 1 December 2026 to 22 February 2028. The estimated value is £190,000 excluding VAT (£228,000 including VAT). Electronic submission is permitted. Bidders are required to register on the UK Government Central Digital Platform and eTenderWales to participate. This opportunity is suited to building contractors with practical experience in external wall insulation preparation, boarding and plastering on occupied social housing. The scope requires work across 37 houses with traditional cavity-wall and pitched-roof construction, so bidders should be able to plan delivery around tenanted homes and coordinate work across multiple properties. The quality assessment specifically tests technical capability, understanding of the project requirements and arrangements for complying with CDM Regulations 2015. Small and medium-sized enterprises are identified as suitable bidders. The contract calls for a single contractor to deliver the works across both named housing locations; firms should consider whether they have the workforce, supervision and site-management capacity to handle this multi-property programme and its project-specific health and safety requirements. ## Notice Swansea Council ADG has been appointed to design and project manage a regeneration scheme to bring dwellings in line with the Welsh Housing Quality Standard requirements. The tender documents sets out the specification in line with the Client (Swansea Council Housing) Brief. The purpose of the regeneration scheme is to carry out works to upgrade Thermal Value to 37No. Council owned properties at Llwyn Helyg and Llwyn Derw, Garden City, Fforest-fach, Swansea. The scheme consists of properties constructed in 1925 and 1964. Properties within the regeneration scheme are tenanted 2/3 Bed houses. External wall fabric is traditional cavity wall construction made up of an internal blockwork skin, cavity and brickwork/blockwork external facade. Timber pitched roof trusses at 600mm centres form the roof construction spanning from front to the rear external walls giving support to roof tiles on battens in the form of timber purlins and timber intermediate rafters and ceiling joists in a traditional form of construction. With a lack of suitable insulation, the properties have been identified as below current requirements to meet WHQS. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/101496-2026 | | Notice type | UK4 - Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Below threshold - open competition | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 27 Oct 2026 | | Submission deadline | 24 Nov 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Dec 2026 - 22 Feb 2028 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £190,000 | | Lots value | £190,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | City & County of Swansea | | Locality | SWANSEA | | Postcode area | Swansea | | Postcode | SA1 3SN | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL4 Mid and South West Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL43 Swansea | | Local authority | Swansea | | Electoral ward | Waterfront | | Westminster constituency | Swansea West | | Delivery location | TLL18 Swansea | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work - 45410000 - Plastering work ## Release History - 27 Oct 2026 at 12:20 - Tender - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/101496-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/101496-2026 27th October 2026 - Tender notice on Find a Tender - https://etenderwales.ukp.app.jaggaer.com/web/login.shtml itt_128138 - Contract for the EWI Boarding and Plastering Works at Llwyn Helyg and Llwyn Derw, Garden City, Fforest-Fach, Phase 2 EWI Scheme ## Notice URLs - http://etenderwales.bravosolution.co.uk - http://www.swansea.gov.uk/dobusiness - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/helpandresources/cdp/procurementact2023 - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=148324 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
