A recently finished cutting-edge roof which shows a great example of how we tactical a challenge here at A J Lucas Roofing.

This has been a work in the making since 2021.
Collaborating with our award-winning Grand Designs client on the roof area design and build of this ultra-eco-friendly new build, tucked away in the South-east of England.
We began the process back in 2021 by laying the foundations: an IKO single-ply waterproofing membrane to an 800 square metre angled roof area.
Leaving the project at this stage to allow the finish of the whole build, we recently returned to complete the job.Picking up where we left off, we first applied a protection fleece to protect the roof from any damage, before laying a bio substrate layer, which will encourage a healthy draining system and will improve the growth of vegetation.
We finished with the sedum blanket to create the ‘green look’ with washed pebbles in the gutter areas which will prevent any drain blockage over time.
So here you see it, a finished project where we were involved right through from the design of the roof to the finishing touches.
We are looking forward to seeing where our client takes it next!
Here is an example of work we do for local authorities; a large refurbishment for a local Police Station. We applied an IKO Felt system to 800 square metres of roof on phase one of the project.
Our award-winning IKO Armourplan and Sedum Green Roof. This job was a self-build project for a developer. The job consisted of 13 individual pitch roof houses which was approximately 600 square metres, taking us 3 months to complete.
As you can see from the images the houses have very steep pitch roofs on both sides with a narrow gutter running along each side. There is capping detail on all sides of the roof which we did in IKO Armourplan fabricated trim. All the materials had to be mechanically fixed to the roof so the IKO Armourplan would not roll.
It is a very technical design and we had the responsibility of deciding how we would waterproof the roof and make the sedum work.
This project highlights that when working on a job for a major client it's not just the roofing we have to consider but the overall function of the build.
We started here with a very worn out, old asphalt roof. With our recommendations we used the Westwood Liquid Waterproofing system to fully refurbish 400 square metres to transform and bring back to life the staff car park on top of the Pentagon Shopping Centre in Chatham, Kent.
The images show the final result after prepping, adding a waterproofing layer, self-level layer, final coat and the parking lines.
For this job we used the IKO Armourplan P Single ply Membrane system.
The job consisted of 3 houses totalling 800 square metres of pitch roof, taking us 6 weeks to complete.
It was a challenging job as the pitched roofs were angled at 45 degrees with a 15lm slope. We worked off scaffolding built to only half way up the roof which made injecting the membrane very difficult, so we needed to weld it whilst ensuring the standing seams remained straight.
You can see from the images how well we overcome the difficulty, finishing the roofs with such a high standard of workmanship.
Above is a selection of examples of work we have produced for private clients.
No job is ever too big or small for us, we love working on your home extensions and refurbishments. Antony will work with you right through from the design stage to finish, ensuring we apply the best flat roofing system for your property.
