Roof Replacement at Sense College and Hub in Loughborough Annadale Roofing is currently carrying out a substantial roofing project at Sense College and Hub on Radmoor Road, L11 3BS, involving the replacement and improvement of several elements of the existing roof.

The project includes removing the existing man-made slate covering, upgrading the insulation and installing new Tapco slate. We are also altering an existing dormer roof to create a new flat roof incorporating Velux roof windows, alongside the installation of a new single-ply roofing system.

The result will be a modernised roof designed to provide improved performance, insulation and natural light for the building.
 

Removing the Existing Roof Covering

The first stage of the project involves carefully stripping away the existing man-made slate.

Once the old covering has been removed, our team can inspect and prepare the underlying roof structure before the new materials are installed. This is an important part of any significant roof replacement project, allowing the new roof covering and insulation to be installed correctly from the outset.

The existing slate will be replaced with Tapco slate, providing a smart and durable new finish for the building.
 

Upgrading the Roof Insulation

As part of the works, we're also upgrading the existing roof insulation.

Improving insulation during a roof replacement is a valuable opportunity to enhance the thermal performance of a building while the roof structure is already exposed. Rather than simply replacing the external covering, the project allows several aspects of the existing roof to be improved at the same time.

Our experienced roofing contractors work carefully through each stage to ensure the different elements of the new roof system come together correctly.
 

Converting the Dormer to a Flat Roof

Another significant element of the project involves removing the existing dormer roof and converting this section into a new flat roof.

Velux roof windows are being incorporated into the new design, allowing additional natural light into the building while creating a cleaner and more practical roof structure.

The new section will use a single-ply roofing system, providing a high-quality solution suited to the revised design.

As specialists in flat roofing, Annadale Roofing has the experience required to complete projects that combine traditional pitched roofing with modern flat roofing systems.
 

Combining Different Roofing Solutions

This project demonstrates how different roofing materials and techniques can be brought together within one building.

The completed roof will incorporate new Tapco slate, upgraded insulation, Velux roof windows and a single-ply flat roof. Careful planning is essential to ensure each section integrates successfully with the next and that the finished installation performs as one complete roofing system.

As experienced roofing specialists, we undertake projects ranging from individual repairs to extensive roof replacements and refurbishment work on larger commercial and public buildings.
