The proposed works include remodelling and upgrading a former sheltered housing complex- Hallowes Court. Refashioning both homes and communal areas, creating a modern complex which meets the needs of residents and Rykneld Homes. A Principle Designer has undertaken much of the design works associated with refurbishment and the design details are included within the tender documents, however, the successful contractor will be expected to design some key elements of the works. The works to properties, site and associated infrastructure will be undertaken in accordance with the plans, elevations and layouts contained in the tender documents including; planning drawings, detailed designs and engineering drawings. The works will be awarded on a JCT Intermediate Building Contract, and it is expected the works value will be approximately £700,000. The successful contractor would be expected to start on site within 3 weeks of award of contract and all works to be completed prior to March 2020. These works are very high profile for Rykneld Homes, whilst it should be considered the complex will remain partly occupied and thus health and safety and detailed planning are essential to the success of the scheme.
