Sika Sarnafil Refurb Service Is Top Of The Class

Construction News Image
Sika Sarnafil has contributed to a series of school re-roofing projects on behalf of Northamptonshire County Council.

Financed by county council capital funds, the multi-million-pound investment in remedial works included bringing the school roofs in line with current building regulations for a better thermal performance.

Generally working on buildings first constructed from the late 60s to late 70s and all suffering from some degree of water ingress, Sika Sarnafil specialist roofing contractors installed a total of almost 30,000sq m of predominately G410-18EL membrane in Light Grey to the roofs.

Importantly, Sika Sarnafil's specialist refurbishment service provides a market-leading single-point guarantee covering not only the single ply membrane specified, but also the design and workmanship.

Sika Sarnafil's Neil Smith says that this dedicated refurbishment service is ideal for multi-site projects. "Because our system is cold applied, it's a popular choice for schools as it allows staff and pupils to remain on site throughout works. As well as the peace of mind our guarantee brings, there are weekly site inspections by our field technicians before a final inspection sees the guarantee issued."
