SOLUTION
In pursuit of a thermal (insulated) roof solution that prioritized efficiency without compromising quality, the client worked with Asphaltech to select Neuchâtel’s Permatec waterproofing system. Unlike traditional insulated tapered schemes, Permatec offers a direct waterproofing solution that eliminates the need for additional tenting costs. By waterproofing directly to the structure and insulating on top, Permatec provides a barrier against UV radiation, foot traffic, and water ingress, while allowing efficient water runoff.
Permatec not only delivers exceptional durability but also proves to be a cost-effective option for inverted roof systems. By eliminating the necessity to encapsulate the entire structure with a tent, Permatec significantly reduces installation time and associated costs, resulting in substantial savings for the client.
The completion of Te Uru Apartments stands as a testament to the effectiveness and efficiency of Permatec waterproofing system. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the project showcases the benefits of innovative construction solutions in delivering beautiful, durable, and sustainable buildings. With inverted roof systems offering ease of installation and superior performance, Te Uru Apartments exemplifies excellence in modern construction practices.
