Cellular PVC roofline products from Swish Building Products were used to help a local firm achieve the desired effect when a knitting factory and warehouse were converted to luxury apartments in Leicester.John Aires, Managing Director of Seria
Cladding, explains, "The original building had an unusual concave
soffit feature, which I was asked to simulate using modern, low
maintenance products. I agreed, and worked out a solution using
products from Swish."
"By using Swish Jumbo fascia boards and
designing special fixings, we were able to insert the Swish Geepee
soffit so that it bent into a concave shape. Then the fixings and
joints were covered using Swish trims for a really professional
appearance."
"It was important to retain the building's
original appearance whilst implementing today's materials and
technology. The lower part of the building was retained and
refurbished, but the upper half was completely rebuilt on the
existing foundations."
As a finishing touch, and to complete the
low-maintenance yet traditional style of the building, Swish
cladding was used attractively below gabled windows.
