TCD Museum Roof Restoration

Overview

The successful delivery of this project on such a prestigious building was rewarded with a Nomination in the 2022 Irish Construction Excellence Awards. This most beautiful 185-year-old building was ours, as a Main Contractor to restore the original roof; – slates, copper flashings, chimneys, domed rooflights and rainwater goods back to their original state. The challenges presented in terms of procurement of materials, getting materials to our site compound and then the actual carrying out of the works were overcome by careful management and planning and good communication lines between all stakeholders. Our careful collaboration process with the Design Team on control samples of work allowed for careful discussion and deliberation on each element and resulted in the end product being of the utmost standard of conservation practice.
