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).

The existing tiles were in too poor a condition to be reused (as we do, where possible), so we recommended a roofing system for the first application followed by a balcony quartz system to cover. The roofing system was despite the balcony being a balcony, not a roof covering any internal rooms, as this would give a superior through-life and better protection for the walls below the balcony walkway.
