Project Description 

10 Nairn Road is a new development of two contemporary homes in Canford Cliffs, Poole in Dorset. The client, Serene Projects and the Architect wanted a waterproofing system for the roofs which was robust and also aesthetically pleasing as the lower flat roofs would be overlooked from the terraces.

Installation Process

Eclipse Roofing and Waterproofing, one of SOPREMA’s Approved Contractors, put forward a bituminous specification to meet these key requirements which included a SOPREMA warm and cold roof system, both of which included SOPREMA Sopralene Optima C3 GMF and offered a 30 year single point warranty. 

Serene Projects awarded the job to Eclipse Roofing and Waterproofing who took great pride in ensuring that SOPREMA warm roof waterproofing system on the 650m² roof was installed to a high standard and that every bituminous bead was neat and continuous.

Shane Young, owner of Eclipse Roofing and Waterproofing commented “We also worked closely with a fabrication company ensuring the new balustrades for the terraces were totally waterproofed once installed. Part of this was achieved by installing SOPREMA’s ALSAN PMMA liquid waterproofing around the fixings points and intricate details”.

The main challenge was treating only the walls due to access restrictions caused by the Olympic-sized pool in the centre of the hall. The panels were installed at an increased height to prevent future damage, ensuring long-term performance and durability. Ventilation and HVAC systems required the panels to be installed higher than initially planned.
