Protan SE roofing specified in £4 million slum redevelopment

The development consists of a three-storey complex combining retail use at ground floor level with residential care homes above.

The 45 extra care homes took the building to the limit allowed by planners, so a flat roof of Protan SE single ply membrane was specified for the redevelopment.
