Case Study: Library Parade Development
Rhenofol Single Ply Roofing System Delivers Quality & Performance on Major Residential Development
Project Overview
The Library Parade Development in Woodley, Wokingham is a substantial new-build residential project requiring a durable, high-performance roofing system capable of delivering long-term weather protection while maintaining an attractive finish.
Working alongside Capitol Roofing Ltd, Rubberseal Ltd supplied a complete Rhenofol single ply roofing specification for approximately 560m² of roofing, providing technical support from specification through to project completion.
The Challenge
As a new-build development, the project required a roofing solution that offered:
- Long-term waterproofing performance
- Reliable installation across multiple roof areas
- A robust specification suitable for terraces and flat roofs
- Manufacturer-backed guarantees
- Technical support throughout the project
- Bespoke finishing details to achieve the architect’s design intent
One specific requirement was the need for a custom edge trim profile, which was not available as a standard component.
The Solution
Rubberseal Ltd worked closely with Capitol Roofing Ltd to develop a complete roofing specification tailored to the project requirements.
Roof Build-Up
- 18mm Plywood Deck
- V-Gard Vapour Control Layer
- TR27 Insulation
- Rhenofol Light Grey Single Ply Membrane
- Mechanically Fixed System
- Loose-Laid Ballasted System with Porcelain Tiles to Terrace Areas
Alongside supplying the roofing system, Rubberseal provided:
- Detailed project specification
- Competitive pricing
- Ongoing technical support
- Manufacturer-backed guarantee
- Bespoke fabricated edge trims designed specifically for the project
The deeper-profile edge trims were manufactured to meet the client’s exact requirements, ensuring both outstanding aesthetics and effective perimeter detailing.
The Result
The completed development showcases a clean, modern roofing finish that complements the contemporary architecture while delivering exceptional waterproofing performance.
The bespoke edge detailing provided a premium appearance, demonstrating Rubberseal’s ability to offer customised solutions where standard components are unsuitable.
Throughout the project, Rubberseal’s technical team supported the contractor from specification through installation, helping ensure a smooth and successful delivery.
