Description

Islington Council invites suitable expressions of interest from suppliers for the delivery of Void Reservicing, Refurbishment and New Tenancy Repairs.

Current status / Background

Islington Council has let an average of 900 properties per year over the last two years, out of a current tenanted housing stock of 25,230.

Demand for social housing within Islington is extremely high with approximately 14,500 households on the housing register. It is essential that void properties are reserviced to a high quality standard and in a timely manner to enable the continuation of the cycle of lettings within the borough.

The council is intending to procure two contractors to deliver void reservicing, refurbishment and new tenancy repairs to Islington Council's void properties.

The two appointed contractors will cover the whole borough and the work will be evenly distributed between them.

The requirement

The two contractors will support the Council's in-house voids team in providing an efficient and effective Void Reservicing, Refurbishment and New Tenancy Repairs.

The contract will include standard void property reservicing, which involves clearing properties of any lumber, carrying out an electrical test and carrying out any required repairs to ensure the properties are in a high quality, lettable standard. In addition, some properties may also require a kitchen and/or bathroom replacement, as well as full decoration. Major works voids refurbishments may also be included, subject to the amount of work involved. This will be decided on a case by case basis.

The contract will also include void reservicing for properties used for General Needs Temporary Accommodation (GNTA) and any required repairs during the first eight weeks of a new tenancy (excluding gas repairs).

Full details are included within the tender documentation.
