This project covered stripping existing asbestos containing walkways on both the 37th and 3rd floors of the Iconic BT Tower as well as waterproofing the roofed areas with a liquid roofing solution from SIKA, guaranteed for 20 years.
The Project was a tricky one, as it involved some unusual detailing as we worked around the various items of plant on the roof-tops, with access to these areas often quite difficult.
And as you can imagine the heights involved with this project added tremendously to the risks and as such we had a qualified rigger escort operatives up to the 37th floor at all times.
We also had staff wear RF monitors to mitigate the risk of being exposed to harmful levels of radio waves.
The work also involved replacing barrel roof-lights on the 37th floor of the building, which in itself presented some significant safety risks which had to be managed by our site personnel.
Despite the challenges faced on this project, it was delivered on time and within budget with commendations from the client for our workmanship.
Group Tegula is currently enjoying repeat business from the client as result of the quality of the work delivered.
