A blend of 6 types of natural clay plain tiles from Eternit Building Materials helped a family-run house builder to meet exacting design criteria for redevelopment of a site in a conservatiobn area.
Main Contractors, Higgins Construction, specified 20,500m2 of Mosborough Red Plain Tiles for the refurbishment of twenty-eight blocks of flats on the large East London estate.
Chosen specifically as a viable alternative to clay, Marley's Plain Tiles offered significant cost and environmental advantages, a key requirement of the regeneration programme.
Roofing Contractors, Court Roof Tiling of Walthamstow, London, carried out the roofing work where the Marley solution was selected to complement the existing tiles on other parts of the site and deliver a more natural look for the roofscape, in keeping with the project's location.
Clive Hodge, Managing Director of Court Roof Tiling, commented: "The programme of estate renewal works on the Pembury Estate required a product that would meet the Peabody Trust's specification for both aesthetics and cost efficiency.
The regeneration programme also required long-term quality, something Marley could guarantee.
This made the Plain Tiles an ideal choice for this type of renovation, offering a hard-wearing and economical solution to the roofscape." Marley Roofing offers one of the most comprehensive ranges of plain tiles available, all designed to enhance angled surfaces and pitched roofs, with the ability to blend into or contrast with the surrounding roofscape, making them ideal for the Pembury Estate project.
