Client Problems:
The building had been experiencing large amount of water ingress through the felt roofs over a long period. The original roof had very low thermal value in comparison with today’s standards and a large amount of heat was being lost through the flat roof. Thus a combination of a roof that leaked in any inclement weather and one that resulted in excessive heating costs for the school through poor insulation.
Solution:
Roofclad provided a new SIGNature Specification 20 year felt roofing system. The client has now a single point labour and material backed warranty that will cover them for any waterproofing issues over the next 20 years.
