- External refurbishment works (e.g. roof, walls, windows, doors, external finishes)

How to Read This Tender
- 1Sheltered housing is for vulnerable or elderly residents — expect strict Health and Safety rules, safeguarding requirements, and possibly access restrictions. Ask upfront about site access and working hours.
- 2The term 'retrofit' means upgrading an older building with modern systems — this often includes insulation, new boilers, or electric work. The full tender documents will specify which retrofit measures are needed.
- 3Look for a detailed scope of works document or specification sheet in the tender pack — this will tell you exactly which rooms and systems are being worked on, and to what standard.
- 4Check whether the contract includes asbestos removal or surveys — if the building is older, this is common in refurbishment and requires specialist contractors.
- 5Find the project timeline and completion date early — sheltered housing refurbishment often has tight deadlines or phasing to minimise disruption to residents.
Tips for Small Businesses
- If you're a general builder but don't have all the specialist trades in-house (electrical, plumbing, HVAC), consider forming a consortium or using approved subcontractors — the client will want assurance that all trades are qualified.
- Sheltered housing contracts often score highly on social value — emphasise in your bid any training opportunities for local staff, employment of apprentices, or community involvement. This can be a competitive advantage for small firms.
- Get clear on the contract value and payment terms from the full documents before bidding. Refurbishment projects can be lengthy; check whether interim payments are available or if you must wait until final completion.
