Sure Start centre roof replacement

Location:
Rusholme, Manchester
Value:
£370K
Client:
Manchester City Council

This project involved a comprehensive re-roofing of a Sure Start children’s centre in Rusholme, addressing urgent structural and aesthetic issues to future proof the building for use by local families.

The deteriorating concrete tiled roof was fully replaced with modern, durable metal tiles, providing enhanced protection, an improved appearance, and increased security for the facility.

While the initial investment was substantial, the long-term benefits are clear. The new tiles are designed to last significantly longer and require less frequent maintenance, meaning reduced costs for repairs and replacements.

The sleek, modern titanium grey of the Britmet tiles has transformed the centre’s appearance, giving it a fresh, inviting look. This visual improvement creates a positive impression for parents, visitors, and the local community, reflecting the high standards of care provided within the centre.

Work on the project was completed in just six weeks, allowing the centre to maintain most of its services without major disruptions and ensuring that staff, children, and families could continue their activities with minimal interruption.

Additionally, essential internal remedial works were completed to ensure the building remains safe and functional for years to come.
