In plain English
The City of London is hiring contractors to carry out essential repairs and maintenance on Leadenhall Market, a historic Grade II* listed building. The work includes fixing stonework, redecorating the roof structure, replacing windows, repairing metalwork, and other specialist restoration to keep this iconic market in good condition while it remains open to the public.
What the buyer wants
• Provide scaffold access to the building's exterior and roofs • Identify and repair defects in Portland stone and masonry • Restore and redecorate the ornate roof structure, including specialist artwork, gilding, and leadwork • Repair or replace sash windows, slate roofing, rainwater goods, and rooftop metal walkways • Undertake joinery repairs and relocate building services like cable trays
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
This contract requires proven expertise in historic building conservation and listed building repair; most general builders or small sole traders without specialist credentials in stone masonry, leadwork, and heritage restoration will struggle to qualify, and the £750k value almost certainly demands large, experienced contractors with substantial public liability insurance.
How to bid
This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
