Entitled 'Improving the School Working Environment', the informative document sets out Tremco's expertise and experience in providing comprehensive product solutions as well as the level of service on offer.
The introduction to the Tremco Roofing Solutions brochure refers to OFSTED's assertion that "One in five schools across England has accommodation that is in such an unsatisfactory state that the delivery of the curriculum is affected".
It also discusses how accurate diagnosis of problems in low pitch or flat roofs, coupled with appropriate specification can avoid unnecessary work while helping to achieve Best Value.
Tremco's Thermocore thermal imaging system is central in achieving these twin goals as it can detect where insulation has become wet due to rain ingress or the build up of condensation.
The infra-red survey information derived can either save stripping off an entire roof area, or prevent budget being wasted on futile patching operations where the build-up is beyond repair.
The company can then assist in obtaining competitive quotations from its network of approved contractors for the installation of well proven systems such as Tremco's Hi-Therm built-up felt system or the Tremco LWS liquid applied membrane.
All such installations can be backed up by the issue of full documentation in the form of Tremco's 'Project Profile Booklet' and covered by the manufacturer's single point guarantee on not merely materials and workmanship but also the existing roof make up.
This total peace of mind can be extended from five through to a 20 year period.
