West Pennine Housing Association turned to Redland to provide the roofing solution for 43 new terraced houses and bungalows in Ashton-under-Lyne.

The scheme was designed by architects Denovo Design to mirror existing houses in the area. While the roofs are traditionally duo-pitched, sunpipes have been mounted in a contemporary cowl to resemble the chimneystacks of existing houses. These provide daylight to the internal staircase and landing areas of the houses.

To match the traditional slate roofs of the neighbouring homes, the architect sought a long-life flat concrete tile with a thin leading edge. Redland was selected as the roofing supplier for its great value Richmond 10 Slate in Slate Grey.

In addition, Redland’s Ambi-Dry Verge System provides excellent resistance to wind uplift for the roof perimeter and the Rapid Vented Ridge System neatly integrates high- level ventilation via the ridge line into the roof void.
