Refurbishment of St Christopher's Hall Dobbs Weir Road Hoddesdon EN11 0AZ

INVITATION TO TENDER Under the terms of the Audit Regulations and the Councils Standing Orders, the Council is required to seek 3 quotations. Tenders Are invited from suitably qualified and experienced providers to deliver the following works. Full details and plans are available on the Contracts Finder website Project Background St Christophers Hall was built by the villagers of Dobbs Weir in 1939. The nearest parish hall was in Roydon, which was a long walk for the Dobbs Weir Community, so they built the hall to allow fellowship and act as a meeting point for villagers. The villagers passed it over to the Diocese of Chelmsford for safekeeping and to look after which is how it remained for some 70 years. Around 15 years ago the Church decided that they wished to sell the land for development. The people of Dobbs Weir fought strongly against this and Roydon Parish stepped in to purchase the hall and the land for £50k using public funds. Unfortunately, since 2013, there has been no maintenance or development to the Hall and as a result the Hall is now in dire need of essential work to maintain its usage to meet safety requirements. The hall was built on a timber frame with a large main area, toilets, a small stage, and a kitchen area. It has outside space and parking facilities. The building hasn't altered in some 80 years and the general layout is still satisfactory, but the building is now in desperate need of refurbishment, to prevent it falling into disrepair and to bring it up to modern day safety standards. Project There are a number of elements to the renovation and once tenders are available, the Parish Council will decide if all or part of the project will go ahead. The elements are as follows: • Remove walls, roof and outer body of hall to strip back to wooden frame. Remove the low grade asbestos. Rebuild timber walls, renew tile roof, guttering, soffits, replace all windows and external doors with double glazed units. Insulate the whole building and partition the interior to form: kitchen, male & female toilets, disabled toilet with baby changing cubicle. Clad bottom half of exterior of building with wood effect low maintenance cladding. Remove current floor, insulate and renew subfloor. Renew electrics, renew plumbing and install electric heating and exterior lights. • Fit out interior, to include new kitchen, male, female and disabled toilets with hand basins, wc's, tiling, hand dryers, lay flooring in all rooms, install new lighting, door furniture, paint Accompanying documents Specification and drawings Building Regs approval Asbestos report Project costs The Parish Council will need detailed quotes to meet the objectives of Part 1 and Part 2 separately. The construction approach will need to be optimized to meet the project objectives, and the Council will be open to the possibility for some finishing items to be carried out by the community such as painting/kitchen fitting etc. The Parish Council does not have unlimited funds for this project, so it is important that quotes include a contingency. The Council have been advised that the full refurbishment cost will be in the region of 120k. Tender Submission Requirements The following should be submitted as part of this tender submission: • Full costing proposal - setting out quotes for each of the project elements, contingency and total cost (scoring percentage 50%) • Reasonable commuting distance to Dobbs Weir (scoring percentage 25%) • Document setting out experience in working on similar projects (scoring percentage 25%) to include: • Company structure, any subcontractors or other personnel who would work on the project • Company information, time in business etc • Evidence of delivering work on time and to budget • Reviews/testimonials from previous commercial clients • Location and photos of previous similar work carried out • Indication of timescale for each project element, indicating the total timescale for the whole project Important Information Works are ideally to commence in May 2025 and take no longer than 3 months.
