West Lothian Council Awards £1.2 m Roof and Render Contract

A £1.2 MILLION contract to provide roofing and rendering services for West Lothian Council has been awarded to Strathaven-based Procast.

The deal will see the company working on various residential properties in Dedridge (two sites), Armadale (three) and Whitburn (two).

The contract was awarded under a three-year Trades Contractor Framework agreement with the council, which can cover all properties under the ownership or care of West Lothian Council such as schools, residential care, social, leisure, community centres and offices.

Council roofing clients

Roofing and rendering works form part of Procast’s core services, which they have been delivering on a repeat business basis to longstanding clients including Renfrewshire, Falkirk, East Renfrewshire, East Dunbartonshire, South Ayrshire and North Lanarkshire councils.

Procast will be working with TN International – the largest Russian and European manufacturer and supplier of roofing, waterproofing and thermal insulation materials – on a new flat roofing application on these projects. TN International is also the parent company of Stirling-based Superglass Insulation Ltd.

Carol Cameron, Managing Director of Procast Property Services, said: “We are delighted to have secured further roof and render work packages for West Lothian Council.

“The contracts will run over the next few months and will help support local employment and our existing apprenticeship development during these very challenging times for the construction industry.”

Procast is scheduled to hand over to the council on January 21, 2021.
