"The roof’s prefabricated element was key to its specification as I urgently needed to speed up building works on this project. I’m glad to say I made the right decision. L-Ments® is built for rapid installation as well as containing all the necessary thermal properties to ensure the completed house meets the near-zero carbon standard. Working with the L-Ments® system proved to be a very good choice."
Nick Lacey, Architect
The 200m² Burley house was the first project to use the innovative L-Ments® system in the UK. Designed to offer U-values of between 0.13 and 0.19 W/m2K, it comprises breather membrane, counter battens and integral structural timber, along with high performance PIR insulation, all incorporated into lightweight cost-effective modular roofing panels. Such was the ease of application; the construction of the pitched roof was completed in just seven hours.
