How we work in this sector

Residential developments, done the way the building needs

Occupied residential buildings

Residents are the priority. Working hours, noise, access to balconies and the safety of the common areas are agreed with the managing agent, and residents are kept informed. Tiffany Court was completed with a temporary roof and residents in occupation.

Managing agents and housing associations

Survey reports and budgets written for Section 20 consultation and planned maintenance programmes, and a single contact for the property manager throughout.

New build for developers

Single ply, bituminous and hot melt systems for new apartment schemes, podium decks and green roofs, with the specification, U-value and wind load calculations produced with the manufacturer.

Balconies, terraces and walkways

Anti-slip liquid applied systems for balconies and walkways, inverted build-ups for terraces, and fire performance addressed in the specification where the building height requires it.

Questions

Asked and answered

Can you re-roof an occupied apartment block?

Yes. Access, working hours and the common areas are agreed with the managing agent, residents are kept informed, and the roof is phased so no flat is exposed. Tiffany Court was a full re-deck with residents in occupation.

Do you work with managing agents on Section 20 consultations?

Yes. The survey report and budget cost are written so they can be used in the consultation, and we are used to the timescales involved.

Do you do new build residential?

Yes, for developers and main contractors, including podium decks, green roofs and terraces, with the design done alongside the manufacturer.

Can you deal with storm damage quickly?

Yes. Tiffany Court was a storm damage re-deck delivered within two weeks, with a temporary roof erected over the building while the deck was replaced.

What about balconies and walkways?

Anti-slip liquid applied systems are the usual answer, guaranteed and detailed around the doors, drains and balustrade fixings.
