Roof repairs no 3

Your Roof – Sieve repairs No 3

As of Thursday 28th March, when a site meeting was held with the Alfie Spencer and Andy Hare from the main contractors Pinnacle, Carl Andrews our architect and Jess Rudman and Phill Kicks representing St John’s. I am happy to submit my Third report on the Roof project.

The main scaffolding is 60% complete on the north side, due to be completed 5th March including high level scaffolding.

All metal drainage work for the North side has been ordered and the lead time indicates delivery week commencing 8th April.

Pointing work to be started on South side will start in conjunction with tiler week commencing 8th April.

Work on the south rood is proceeding at a pace and tiles will be delivered Tuesday the 2nd for installation commencing 8th once all final prep work done. (small forklift working in area as there are 3000 tiles to be moved).

Fitting of all tiles to South Roof expected to take 4 weeks then a possible 2 more weeks for lead dressing and finishing up. Which would put a expected completion of South roof mid-May.

The stripping of North roof will start as soon as the Guttering is fitted, as there will be a larger team on the North side it will progress quicker, as it is a more complex roof the expected completion will be delayed, no dates as yet for delivery of second set of 3000 tiles but it will take place on either a Tuesday or Wednesday morning as soon as required the target completion date for all tiling and lead dressing is end of May.

The next major milestones

Tiles being delivered 2nd April.
