In plain English
Linstone Housing Association wants a contractor to remove RAAC (reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete, a lightweight concrete used in some older roofs and ceilings) from the top floor flats and shared close areas of several blocks in Linwood, Renfrewshire, and then rebuild those roofs. The work also includes repairs to the roof timbers, replacing the roof coverings and windows, and some light fitting changes.
What the buyer wants
• Safely remove the RAAC, roof coverings, timber supports and ceilings, using temporary crash decks and acrow props (adjustable steel props) to support the structure while the work is done. • Install new single ply roofing membrane, insulation, timber joists, fireline boarding and suspended ceilings, and infill old wall pockets with new engineering brickwork. • Replace roof tiles, battens, sarking, fascias, verge and soffit boards on the butterfly roofs, carry out rot surveys and repairs to joist ends, replace the top floor close windows, and alter light fittings where the RAAC is removed.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The work involves structural removal of RAAC, temporary propping and roof replacement across several occupied blocks, so a small business without proven experience of this kind of structural and roofing work would most likely be ruled out, although the notice does not state a value, turnover threshold or specific qualifications.
