    The private equity-backed maintenance specialist saw off 14 bidders to secure both contracts, covering roofing work across a combined housing stock of around 6,700 homes.

    The long-term deal runs from April 2026 to September 2030, with scope to extend to 2035, taking the programme to nine and a half years. Quality and price were weighted 50/50 in the open-procedure assessment.
