Clement Conservation Rooflights chosen for Grade II listed Georgian building in Birmingham

Clement Windows Group supplied conservation rooflights for 1-5 St Paul’s Square in Birmingham. The historic Georgian building houses multiple office units and landmark venue - The Jam House. Opened in 1999 by Jools Holland and designer Neil Tibbat, the multi award winning venue offers live music and fine dining.

Clement supplied 11 rooflights for the project, including the Clement 3, 4 and side hung ranges, all in a slate profile.

Richard Clews MRICS from Jubb Clews Ltd, the architects working on the project, said:

“1-5 St Paul’s Square is a Grade II Listed Building in Central Birmingham that was constructed in c1780 as town houses around a classic Georgian Square. 

The project included repairing the traditional slate roofs and lead-lined parapet gutters. Key design considerations included improving thermal performance and increasing the capacity of rainwater disposal to accommodate modern storm surges whilst remaining sympathetic to the traditional architectural details. The works were funded from the planned maintenance budget.

Clement Conservation Rooflights were perfectly suited to this application. Several of the top hung windows were used for the upper floors whilst the side hung windows were used for the roof maintenance access.”
