Old lead roof that was leaking really bad. Had to use a metal primer with a carrier layer to be able to lay a fibreglass roof over the top to give a 20 year life span.

Yet another stage complete to the camellia house/chapel at Quantock Lodge. This is the entrance hall into the chapel. Firstly some previous pics of what it looked like before we removed the wall that the hospital period put up to turn the Camellia house into a chapel. Then a massive cleanup from the school times, that used this room for costume changes and the lighting crew had some staging in there. The walls and ceiling had to be painted as sand blasting would of done to much damage. Then finished with tiling the floor as the flag stones were in a bad way.

Next stage complete in the Chapel/Arboretum.
The customer had an old timber floor that came out of a sports hall and squash court.
So we decided to use that as the flooring in the Chapel/Arboretum.
We used the squash court flooring as a boarder, cross divider and the diamond centre.
Then infilled the rest with the sports hall flooring in a diagonal direction.
We had to sand the whole floor because of the two timbers being slightly different thicknesses.
Fixed skirting board around to match roof profiles.
We stained the boarder, diamond, skirting and centre cross in the darker finish to match the roof timbers.
Then 3 coats of clear satin varnish over the whole floor to finish.
Also had some heaters fitted and the original lights re-wired and put back up.

Just a little roof job at Quantock Lodge.
A building that started life as a Camellia house (green house). Which had 4 glass lanterns on the roof. Then when the big house was converted into a hospital, the camellia house building was converted into a Chapel and in the cellar was the mortuary and they removed the lanterns and erected two apex asbestos roofs. Then the big house was converted into a school and they turned the chapel into a drama room and decided to paint everything inside black.
Today the big house is back to a home and has groups stay for a holiday or just as a meeting point, also some times a wedding or party venue.
But sadly the camellia house/chapel/drama room building was left to slowly rot and decay.
Then I was called in, to bring it back to life.
First of all we were going to replace the roof with two apex tiled roofs to match the big house, but once the asbestos was removed, it revealed the original timber from the lanterns and had the notches in the timbers where the glazing bar were fixed. So the big decision was made to bring it back to look as original as possible, but using some modern materials to reduce maintenance and last as long as possible.
Unfortunately we could not save anything from the original roof.
But everyone is more than amazed by the finished roof. We still have work to do on the inside, which is to follow.
