Hampton Court & Richmond Court

Alumasc’s Derbigum Roofing System has been used at Hampton Court and Richmond Court - two historic five-storey apartment blocks, which have undergone a £2.9m refurbishment for Birmingham City Council as part of the Constructing West Midlands framework. Derbigum was the preferred system for the project as it had been used successfully by the client’s architect Acivico in previous installations and offers a unique 25 year single-point warranty covering both the waterproofing system and associated Alumasc products. A total of 800m2 of Derbigum Mineral in charcoal was installed to the roofs of both buildings, this included the use of a vapour control layer and full polyurethane insulation scheme, also supplied by Alumasc. To minimise the appearance to the external façade, the Derbigum roofing system was dressed to encapsulate the perimeter parapet and Alumasc’s Skyline polyester powder coated aluminium coping system was installed.
