When one of the main joists on the sheltered area roof for the younger years broke last summer, we were called out to make the roofed area safe. We attended site and braced the damaged beam with timber and installed Acro props to support the immediate area while a full repair was planned. We were then asked to quote to replace all the roof timbers and polycarbonate roof and remedy the issues with roof drainage. The box gutter was inaccessible for maintenance and was blocked with general detritus giving a suitable base for weeds to root in and cause further problems.
Through an 8-day period during the February half term we removed all lighting and completely removed the old roof structure leaving the metal posts as the base structure to build a new roof from. We then built a new roofing framework from structural tanalised timber altering the roof design so that there is only one fall to an accessible box gutter for maintenance. We then installed a corrugated polycarbonate roof, altered the electrical containment system and installed all new LED lighting to the area.
