Norton Thurlton & Thorpe Village Hall.
This had a hexagonal pyramid felt roof,
which for sometime, local youths had enjoyed scaling the heights.
Inevitably, the time came for the roof to be renewed and the Committee
Members invited Faber Roofing to propose a system that would be
aesthetically pleasing, outlive felt and perhaps deter the adventurous
youth. The recommendation was to use Decra lightweight metal tiles which met all of the criteria:- a life expectancy in excess of 40 years, a
pleasing terracotta stone granular finish to enhance the appearance and
subdue youthful enthusiasm. Grant monies and fund raising events lead to
the successful completion of the contract in 2003.

scaffold to ensure the safety of our workforce and the protection of people and property
at ground level, no matter how complex the project. The Company

only its own Contracts. Considerable investment in both plant and people continues in
order to maintain the established high standards.
