An anticipated annual expenditure ranges from £250,000 to £300,000. Guarantee cannot be given by Ealing Council with regard to the volume, trade requirement, value, duration, category nor continuity of the works.The borough will be split into two areas/wards with roughly equal numbers of blocks.

The East area comprises W3, W4, W5, W7, W13 and NW10 postcodes. The West comprises UB1, UB2, UB5, UB6, HA0, HA4 and a small number of BN25 postcodes. Some stock is within areas identified for regeneration and development, this is likely to mean that there will be some change in the overall number of blocks and also lead on supply and demand of works during the life of the contract.
