Shatter Resistant Tiles Complete New Roof for Residents at Golf Club Lodge
IKO PLC
When starting to plan the development of a new 18 bedroomed lodge at Kingswood Golf Course, the management team were concerned about its proximity to the 18th hole and the perennial damage that had been caused over time to the existing slate roofs of the club house from golf balls. They wanted a more robust, sustainable solution for the roof of The Lodge.
Hardwood Timber Tiles - Tunbridge Wells
Wallbarn Ltd
This project involved a penthouse with a huge roof terrace. The existing deck was dilapidated and needed complete replacement.
The existing decking needed to be lifted, cut up and removed. The terrace was jet-washed and sealed.
Using ipe tiles on top of adjustable pedestals keeps the tiles out of standing water and creates space underneath for cables, etc.
Rooftop terraces are difficult to access. 500x500mm timber tiles are much easier to manually handle and transport than long plank decking. The tiles aren’t fixed to the pedestals, making them future-proofed.
hardwood Timber Tiles with self-levelling pedestals on terrace
Wallbarn Ltd
Roof terrace on the third floor of a residential block. The customer wanted a floating deck but was keen to source decking that could be easily installed. They needed to deal with a slope and variation in the surface, as well as easy access to a drain. Wallbarn recommended their Cumuru hardwood timber tiles which being 500mm x 500mm x 30mm, which are highly portable and perfect for low threshold retro-fits. To deal with the variation in surfaces around the deck, we recommended laying the timber tiles onto our ‘Balance’ self-levelling pedestals. Total installation time: 3 hours
Combining a Range of IKO Roofing Waterproofing Systems to Refurbish a School Roof

IKOslate, a robust and durable tile was specified for the pitched roof due to vandalism and the fragility of the current system, whereas a tapered scheme was required for the flat roofing - IKO Ultra Prevent alongside a cold applied liquid solution (IKO Polimar) for the more intricate details.

Ipe timber tiles offers decking solution for ultra low height threshold
Wallbarn Ltd
A contractor client was working on a retro-fit balcony and flat roof project in Brighton.
The waterproofing membrane had tapered insulation placed on top and the contractor discovered ballasting the insulation was needed, only once on the roof.
The door thresholds were too tight for a traditional decking system with joists.
Wallbarn advised for paving slabs on 9mm rubber pads; then 30mm thick ipe timber tiles mounted onto Adjustable Pedestals.
The buildup was under 100mm and the overall finish of the tropical hardwood was glorious.
The architect was relieved that we could produce a solution, the client was delighted.
