Total Quantity or Scope

The redevelopment and major refurbishment of Glencairn House will bring about the transformation of the B-Listed Glencairn House into a state-of-the-art library, museum and community facility. Description of the works: - Renovation of the existing Category B listed Glencairn House to form a new lending library and local history museum. Fabric repair works were carried out in 2017, so the building is in good condition, but full internal fit out including installation of a new lift and stairs, building services, internal finishes, etc is required. The fire strategy requires the installation of a sprinkler system throughout. The existing 1920s shop front windows and entrance door is to be replaced. - Demolition of the existing dilapidated extension to the rear. This extension shares a party wall with neighbours on two sides. - Construction of new three storey extension to the rear of Glencairn House including a CLT superstructure, bespoke ceramic cladding, pile foundations, new slappings in the rear wall of Glencairn House to connect the two structures, sprinkler system, heat pumps, etc. - Construction of a standalone single storey children’s library on the brownfield site. The children’s library will have a CLT superstructure and bespoke ceramic cladding as well as a Changing Place WC. - Landscaping of a new children’s library garden retaining an existing mature tree. - Creation of a new external plant area to house the sprinkler tank, heat pumps, generators, and other plant. - Given the listing of the building, as well as its location in the town centre conservation area, all works to the existing fabric must be carried out to high quality, conservation standards. - The ceramic cladding was developed in conjunction with an artist, and will form a significant feature in the townscape. A sample tile was submitted as part of the planning application and exact matching of this glaze in terms of quality and colour forms part of the planning conditions. - The site is restricted in terms of access, and will require careful planning and sequencing of works. - The aspiration is to create a low carbon building. The contractor will be expected to collaborate with the design team to achieve the best possible outcome in this regard. The tender exercise will identify a competent contractor with the capability and capacity to take on such a project and include considerations for the specialist nature of certain aspects as outlined above.
