Flat Roof Renovation
the Flat Roof renovation so far…
On January 8th 2024, the team from Integral Roofing commenced work on the flat roof at St John’s Church, Westwood Coventry. Three weeks into the project, everything was progressing well. The skylights and roof lantern had been removed, the structural deck was being replaced and the first layers of insulation had gone down.
By February 5th, the additional insulation now covers over 80% of the roof, with the final felt covering half of that area. A new boiler flu was fitted last week.
The glass in a window at the rear of the church has been removed so that a new sill can be fitted before the restored window is returned.
Permission to improve the water management off the porch has been approved by the diocese, so the entrance to the church will be water free from completion of the works.
At the end of February, we were thrilled that the roof lantern was refitted in the welcome area, especially on sunny days like today.
Work on the roof itself is almost complete. All that's left are some final touches, such as fitting glass in the church window, before the scaffolding can come down.
This has all been possible because of the grant given by FCC Communities Foundation. We are so thankful for their support and appreciate how much it will positively impact the life of our church and community.
