Sika Teaches The Art Of Roofing
Trocal S, one of the single-ply roofing membranes from market leader Sika Limited, was recently used in the roofing refurbishment of The Carlton School and Technology College in Nottinghamshire.
The total area involved was 8000 square metres and accounted for all of the school and college roofing areas The challenge was to replace a failed bituminous felt roofing system whilst causing minimal disruption to lessons
The solution from the Trocal team was to overlay the Trocal S single-ply roofing system on top of the failed bituminous roofing structure.
The solution provided speed of installation, a cost saving and allowed trapped water in the original roof to evaporate, as the Trocal membrane is vapour permeable.
Both the local authority and architect have learned the art of roofing from Sika Limited and will be using Trocal S in the future for additional projects.
