Bristol City Council owns over 3,200 No-Fines and Easi-form properties, and the stock has been divided into several separate phases. Each phase will form a separate contract. Initial expressions of interest are invited from potential providers wishing to carry out Phase 2 for the external cladding, external wall repairs and associated works to approx 877 Easi-form type system built properties.
