Troon Beach Front Development, Ayrshire, Scotland

Troon, on the west coast of Scotland, is known not only for its golf course but also for its strong winds, which come from the Atlantic and from the north down the Firth of Clyde. This makes it an excellent spot for windsurfing and kitesurfing, but a challenging spot for roofs!

One new 14 apartment development on the main seafront road illustrates this well - the roof area wrapped around the complex, each area presenting its own requirements and each requiring reliable longterm protection from the corrosive salt-rich sea air and the worst weather the Atlantic will throw at it.

Troon Garage Flat Roof Installation, Ayrshire

This row of eight garages in Troon, South Ayrshire (less than 40 miles west of Glasgow), was in need of a roof, quickly.

The area, as can be seen from the photograph, was relatively large, around 160m2, and required a full flat roof system. Because of continuity of work, the contractor needed a quick turnaround and dry storage needed to be preserved.

Leaking Balcony Rescue in Pitlochry, Scotland

The tiled balcony walkways at this hotel in Pitlochry, Scotland, were leaking badly. Despite good workmanship, there was a lack of suitable materials beneath the tiles themselves, resulting in real problems for the hotel owners.

The picture gallery above shows not only the initial leaking but the stage-by-stage refurbishment of the entire balcony (all the way round).
