## Description
The Town Council wish to begin the official tender process for the required refurbishments to Handforth Community & Youth Centre as highlighted in the Building Survey report from April 2024 and to potentially install solar and heat pumps along with any additional energy and water saving technologies as budget allows. The tender will be up to a maximum guaranteed price of £230,000.00 to be drawn from agreed PWLB monies agreed under min ref: 25/21/10. Plus, any grant awards and available CIL monies which HTC holds. 
The works are to cover the following:
Overall, the property presented in a satisfactory to fair of repair and structurally sound given the age of the property and some of the material elements identified. The flat roof to the upper section is nearing the end of its material service life. Given the woodwall deck it is more so important that the covering is maintained in good/dry condition. We would recommend budgeting £48,500 for the full covering and deck replacement. To the lower roofs, the deck below the covering was concealed though some evidence of further woodwool was identified in further areas, we would therefore highly recommend intrusive further investigation are undertaken alongside a competent contractor and roofer to determine the concealed conditions throughout. Allow a budget of £5,000 for further investigations and reporting.
To the external walls no significant cracks were noted however noted however isolated potential settlement was noted to the rear right corner of the building. Allow a budget of £1,500 for localised repointing and monitoring in the first instance as it appear some former tarmac works were conducted which are likely connected. However, we would hight recommend clarification is sought as to the works and why it was undertaken in the first instance as it may lead to more cost repairs. It was additionally noted that the building was predominantly formed with Calcium Silicate bricks which are prone to shrinkage which lead toe cracking. It must be noted however, that no significant cracks of concern were identified during the inspection.
Internally surfaces finishes throughout presented in keeping with the age of the property and thus dated. We would advise a budget of £6,000 for a general overhaul of loose and water damaged ceilings and minor damage to walls. We would further recommend budgeting for refurbishment of WC facilities throughout setting aside a minimum budget of £10,000 per area.
Radiators throughout the property were dated, gas maybe the cheapest solution in the short term though long-term solutions such as air source heat pump would be considered future proofing. We would recommend budgeting £15,000 - £25,000 with an additional £10,000 for wall mounted electric panel heaters.
It is noted that some emergency lighting, smoke detection, and compliant fire doors have been incorporated throughout rooms. We recommend that a full fire risk assessment is undertaken,costs for new fire detection system...
