Empty Property Decoration Works

Rykneld Homes Ltd (RHL) is seeking to appoint one contractor to provide decoration works to empty properties between lettings in North East Derbyshire. Bidders will deliver properties to the RHL Lettable Standard and decoration specification.

One of Rykneld Homes main corporate objectives is to 'Set our customers up to succeed'. We take pride in delivering these values to our customers lives and as such, the quality of workmanship and the resulting finished product of our empty properties is of the highest standard. We expect our chosen contractors to operate with the same exacting ethos.

Works will be structured on a call-off basis.

The contracts are one year in length with an option to extend for a further year.

The contractor will work in the northern area of the District.

The contractor will be appointed to complement RHL's inhouse Direct Labour Force to ensure sufficient capacity and flexibility to commence works quickly following each allocation of an empty property.

Due to the unpredictable nature of terminating tenancies there will be fluctuations in demand for the works required, therefore, it is only possible to provide estimated numbers of void/empty properties based on previous years. This has fluctuated between 122 and 157 empty properties per annum.
