Description

Housing & Care 21 are currently investing significantly in their existing housing stock, with a view to providing practical and modern living spaces for their residents.
As part of a five year programme (of which we are currently in year three), Housing & Care 21's Design Team have led a makeover project to update and redevelop shared and communal spaces across its Retirement Housing and Extra Care stock. Many of these properties have been in Housing & Care 21's portfolio for many years, and as a result are showing significant signs of wear. Each makeover comprises the repainting/redecoration of the required rooms/areas, the partial or full replacement of the flooring and the purchase and installation of furniture, window treatments and artwork.
Flooring suppliers are expected to work with the Interior Designer and the Technical Surveyor assigned to each court/scheme to ensure the completion of this area of the project within allotted timescales. The supplier should be able to source the required products for each site at competitive prices and provide a full removal and installation service.

The objective of this tender is to appoint two suitable flooring suppliers across three regions of the Housing & Care 21 estate (North, Central and South). There will be no limitations applied to the number of regions a supplier can bid for. Any suppliers who believe they can service every region requested should be able to highlight how this can be achieved as well as highlighting areas of the country that they may struggle to service.
Every potential supplier should be able to provide a comprehensive and high quality flooring service, working in conjunction with Housing & Care 21's Design Team and Building Surveyors during the makeover process at each scheme/court. Suppliers will be expected to accurately measure floor space when pricing up a project to ensure costs and wastage are kept to a minimum, supply and fit flooring as per the requested specification for each project, make good all flooring prior to fitting (including screeding and glue scraping) and remove and dispose of the existing flooring at a site in a safe and environmentally friendly manner.
Due to the age and vulnerability of Housing & Care 21's residents, all suppliers should be able to supply and work to the appropriate Health and Safety provisions for their service. Where possible allowances should be made by contractors to ensure residents are able to conduct their daily business without any disruption.
