Challenge:
Provide a sustainable and cost effective solution
Solution
Lothian in Terracotta
Location
Eastbourne, East Sussex
Developer
McGoff Construction
Background
The £8m project involved the demolition of an existing derelict 120-bed nursing home on Pevensey Bay Road in Eastbourne and the development of a new 80-bed care home for a Barchester Healthcare Mortain Place Care Home – which has been specifically designed to provide high-quality residential care to older people.
Solution
McGoff Construction worked closely with leading roof tile manufacturer, Russell Roof Tiles to achieve the right roofing solution. The firm specified its Lothian concrete pitched roof tiles in Terracotta as the tiles replicate the look of natural clay tiles.
Lothian tiles form part of Russell Roof Tiles’ Natural Range of products – an expanding selection of thinner leading-edge interlocking concrete tiles that have the appearance of natural slate, stone and clay, whilst offering the long-lasting attributes of a concrete interlocking roof tile.
