EXTERNAL WALL INSULATION AND RENDER WORKS

Wakefield and District Housing Limited is carrying out external insulated rendering to a wide variety of property types as part of the on going planned maintenance work to its extensive stock portfolio. On some schemes WDH is also carrying out external pointing and extensive re-roofing works, although these works shall be the subject of separate tender exercises.

For the purpose of this tender exercise WDH invites tenders from experienced external insulated rendering contractors who are certified to PAS 2030, to work alongside and under the direction of WDH’s own Improvements Team. The works will involve working on individual properties within larger schemes, generally below one hundred properties where the contractor will be asked to work on WDH’s programme carrying out some of the works to some of the properties.

Any proposed EWI system must be covered by a recognised certification and accreditation such as, for example, a British Board of Agrément (BBA) Certificate, a European Technical Approval (ETA) Certificate or Local Authority Building Control (LABC) Approval.

Additionally the contractor is required to be an ‘Approved Installer’ for any EWI system they propose and any such systems must carry a 25 year insurance backed guarantee.

The contractor will be expected to be flexible to meet changes to the programme both in terms of their allocated work programme and any changes to the actual programme time scale.

Schemes will be in different locations across the geographical area of the Wakefield district.
