Polymex House, Peckham

This new-build development, constructed on the former site of the historic R. White’s Lemonade and Edison Bell factory, delivered a mixed-use scheme comprising 170 residential units and ground-floor retail space. The project included approximately 3,300 sqm of waterproofing works and associated roof finishes.

Skyler delivered a comprehensive roofing and waterproofing package, with bituminous hot melt systems and XPS insulation utilised extensively across the development. This combination provided a durable, high-performance solution offering excellent thermal efficiency and long-term waterproofing integrity.

Blue roof zones were integrated with green roof systems across the development to combine enhanced drainage control and ecological benefits.

Paved finishes were installed across selected roof areas, balconies, and terraces, creating functional and aesthetically consistent external spaces while ensuring protection of the underlying systems.
