Description: The
client, the owner of the Spa, wanted to provide
his clients with an area for relaxation both before
and after treatments.
The existing windows
and doors were all at different heights and a large
feature window provided an additional challenge
to the overall design. Therefore a roof with differing
eaves levels was created, with the design forming
dormer type projecting sections.
The project was further
hampered because of its location, directly next
to a bat cave, which meant that in order to complete
it, it had to be installed within a specific twelve-week
window whilst the bats were still dormant.
The portal and the
roof were manufactured from Ultraframe components,
which had to be specially designed, detailed and
fabricated due to the 50-degree roof pitch.
A&B Glass, Sudbury,
Suffolk, manufactured all the UPVC windows and
doors along with all the sealed units both for
the fenestration and the roof.
The Managing Director
of the Spa commented, “We have been delighted
with the work, the roof looks beautiful and blends
in perfectly with the 19th century building”.
