CON00003537-2026 2 Brooklyn Road – Asbestos Encapsulation / Building Renewal RFT

Asbestos has been identified at 2 Brooklyn Road, Claudelands, Hamilton. An Asbestos Management Plan and Asbestos Register for the site were prepared by Virotech on 11 March 2026 and provides recommended treatment for asbestos areas of the building. The intent is to encapsulate roof and ceiling to extend the life of the asset ahead of any plans for the building and to ensure safe working conditions. There is a single level office fronting Brooklyn Road which is to be demolished as part of this tender, as well as removal of asbestos vinyl in the staff room and toilet areas and instillation of new flooring alongside new cladding and affected windows. Most of the works require a licensed asbestos removal company with a good track record in asbestos encapsulation; however qualified building works are also important. Note that phasing of works could be preferrable as cleaning of moss and dirt from the super six roof is required first followed by encapsulation. All contractors undertaking works at the site must comply with these documents to ensure legal and safe management of asbestos risks. Key to the success of this project is working alongside the tenants to undertake the works while ensuring their safety and continued business operation. To confirm the Respondent’s ability to meet these obligations, evidence of their proposed approach to asbestos compliance is required as part of this tender.
