Project Highlight - Compton School

The use of copper within construction is unmistakable due to the unique colour it inherits as a result of oxidation. Its warmth and beauty make it a preferred material for many architects. Unfortunately, due to the methods in which these systems were initially installed, weakness can develop and we are seeing an increasing number of failures nationwide including here at Compton School in London. Constructed over 50 years ago, the condition of the copper roofing systems were rapidly deteriorating and starting to show water ingress.
