Specialist traditional finishes for heritage-sensitive sites

Rock’s core products remain waterproofing and renewable energy systems. Yet main contractors and specifiers are clearly aware that there are many more strings to our bow. Traditional roof finishes continue to be an essential part of our business. As a result, we find ourselves appointed to work on the restoration of a growing number of historical and landmark projects.

These include Café Royal near Piccadilly Circus, the prestigious Fenwick department store in Bond Street and the refurbishment of 49 Park Lane in Mayfair. In addition, we have worked with Laing O’Rourke on the new City of Westminster Courts, a flagship development in a highly sensitive location within the Portman Estate Conservation Area, and with Mace on 5 Hanover Square, surrounded by the neighbouring listed buildings of the Mayfair Conservation Area.

Traditional roof materials employed on these projects include slate, tile, lead, copper, stainless steel and zinc. The painstaking installation methods of our skilled craftsmen ensure that the quality of work is never less than exceptional. Rock is delighted to be associated with historical projects, or those located in heritage-sensitive sites, helping revive their splendour with our quality materials and the consistently high standards of our professional artisans.
