Hollywell Court, Eastbourne
Product brief:
As the roof areas had different requirements, Proteus Waterproofing specified Proteus Pro-System® and Cold Melt® providing the client with a cold applied, cost effective, waterproofing solution.
Key Requirements: High Performance Waterproofing
Cold Melt® was chosen for the terrace roofs as the existing single ply still formed a suitable surface to receive an overlay. Pro-Prime® SA and Pro-Carrier membrane SA were applied onto the single ply, followed by an application of Cold Melt®. Two coats were applied to the upstands to ensure full coverage. Cold Melt® UV Top Coat was finally applied to any exposed details to protect them from UV damage.
As the entrance roofs would be exposed to the elements, Proteus Pro-System® was the ideal waterproofing solution. The roof was stripped back to the timber joists and a new timber deck installed. Pro-Prime® SA and Pro-Carrier Membrane SA were then applied to the timber deck and upstands. Finally, Proteus Pro-System® was applied to all surfaces, providing a completely seamless, robust
finish.
Proteus Waterproofing worked closely with the Proteus Approved Contractor to ensure the project was completed to a high standard

Proteus Pro-System® and Cold Melt® are both cold installed; therefore all health and safety criteria could be met while completely eliminating the risk of fire. As Cold Melt® has virtually no odour, disruptions to residents could be kept to an absolute minimum.
