Crawley Court - major roof refurbishment comes in 3 weeks ahead of schedule

Crawley Court houses the main teleport facilities for Arqiva (which used to be previously NTL) which includes their satellite access, global distributions and direct-to-home broadcasting. To provide a complete 4500m2 roof refurbishment program with no disturbance to the employees or Arqiva’s operations presents a major challenge for the most accomplished roofing company.

To add a degree of complexity, the project also called for complete overhaul of air handling plant, installation of guard rails, and, redecoration of roof top plant rooms. Robseal was called in at design stage to carry out an comprehensive assessment of all system options and to provide all necessary system design and existing roof tests. Robseal subsequently won the contract in competitive tender and accepted a 16 weeks deadline for the work.
The system installed was a fully adhered light grey single ply over a 95mm insulation using the existing felt surface as a vapour control layer. The finished project needed to meet the very high aesthetic demands of both the client and the managing surveyors - this it has certainly achieved, and, was delivered three weeks ahead of the deadline.
Mike Elliot, Facilities Manager of Arqiva said “Robseal have provided a first class service, helping us through design, and worked closely with us in ensuring all work was carried out on time and to the highest standards. I would have no problem in recommending Robseal for work on similar projects.”
