A comprehensive roof refurbishment project was successfully delivered at the Central Criminal Court in London, encompassing approximately 1,700 sqm of critical roof area within one of the UK’s most high-profile and operationally sensitive judicial buildings.

The existing asphalt roofing system, which had reached the end of its serviceable life, was fully removed and replaced with a high-performance tapered warm roof solution. This modern system was specifically designed to significantly enhance drainage efficiency, eliminating standing water risks, while also delivering substantial improvements in thermal performance.

To provide long-term assurance and added value, the works were completed with a comprehensive 20-year warranty.

Given the building’s importance and continuous use, the project was carefully planned and executed to minimise disruption, ensuring seamless coordination with on-site operations and strict adherence to health, safety, and security protocols.
