The Royal Northern College of Music (RNCM) undertook a major decarbonisation programme while remaining fully operational, placing significant pressure on its existing building fabric to perform better, not just differently.

At Hambridge Industrial Estate in Newbury, Greenham Common Trust needed to act quickly to secure the future of one of its key commercial units. The asbestos cement roof was over 30 years old, leaking, and no longer safe.

The client had been working with Garland UK since 2015 and trusted us to deliver a long-term solution. With tenant agreements up for renewal, a durable roof refurbishment was essential to keep valued tenants in place. At the same time, the client wanted to cut electricity costs and strengthen the building’s energy performance by investing in solar.

SC2 Water Park in Rhyl, a flagship leisure destination for Denbighshire County Council, faced an unexpected crisis when severe storms ripped off the original roof. With the previous manufacturer no longer trading, the Council needed an experienced, technically capable partner who could restore the site quickly and ensure it was protected for decades to come.

Already a trusted supplier to the Council, Garland UK was appointed to design and deliver a bespoke, long-term roofing solution capable of withstanding the demanding coastal environment and safeguarding this key community facility.
