Six Acres Estate, Islington

A selection of our roofing projects

Completion Date:: 30th Sep '08
Area:: 3100 m²
Client:: London Borough of Islington
Contractor:: Asphaltic Ltd

Langley contribute to the regeneration of Islington’s social housing areas, as part of an extensive programme of works being implemented by the London Borough of Islington.

The scope of works planned for this estate changed the whole look of what had become a run-down area. Reaction to completed works by the client and residents has been hugely positive.

Langley is proud to have been involved in this scheme, having a close working relationship with the client and the contractor. This enabled a successful design of an extensive green roof system for a number of buildings equating to 3,100m² in total.

The roof system consists of a Langley built up roof, recycled drainage layer, 40mm of substrate and pre-cultivated sedum.

This provides a roof that is low maintenance, and will improve insulation to the building whilst making the estate environmentally friendly and greener.

Main System Products: Paradiene [35] SR4, Adesolo, Parafoam Ultra Inverted Board Insulation, Nutrifoam Vegitation Mat, Pre-cultivated Sedum Mats
