Our project of the month for May is the fantastic Westlea Primary School in Swindon. When their 2,200m2 asbestos fibre-cement roof failed, the governors successfully applied to the Condition Improvement Fund (CIF) for a full replacement. TCRC worked with manufacturers BMI Redland and Hookway Surveyors to provide a robust, aesthetically pleasing pitched roof solution that would enhance the appearance of the school building. BMI Redland’s Cambrian interlocking slate tiles were chosen due to their attractive [...]

A grinder was initially used to remove any de-bonded materials from the surface, and the substrate was then cleaned and [...]
