Agenda item

Gateway 6: Renewal of Roof Coverings at 1-48 Blake House, William Blake Estate

Report of the Director of Community & Children's Services.

 

Minutes:

The Sub Committee considered a report of the Director of Community & Children’s Services regarding roof covering replacement for 1 – 48 Blake House. 

 

In presenting the report, Officers advised that this was one of 3 pilot projects to test processes and had won an award for the manufacturer and supplier insulation as well as achieving the key objectives of the project.  The project was delivered slightly over budget due to additional costs in respect of roof damage after the waterproofing layer was laid.

 

In response to questions from Members, Officers stated that there was some roof insulation on Blake House and the new waterproofing had a 20 year guarantee. Moving forward, insulation opportunities would be maximised wherever possible depending on the roof capacity in accordance with the Climate Action Strategy.

 

RESOLVED –

 

  1. That the report and lessons learned be noted.

  2. That the closure of this project is authorised.
