This project was carried out on White House Industrial Estate in Newcastle upon Tyne last year. The project involved stripping the existing top sheet and replacing with Firth Steels N1000R, incorporating new Class 3 translucent GRP rooflights from Filon Products Ltd. We increased the insulation depth to 240mm by using Ash & Lacy's AshGrid system. Our in house fabrication department manufactured new trimline gutters and downpipes along with all other flashings.

We're thrilled to have received the news that our facade installation at Stockport Interchange has been shortlisted by the judges at the 2025 NFRC UK Roofing awards! On this scheme we worked for our key client Willmott Dixon to design, supply and install the AlterEgo Facades limestone rainscreen to the complex shape of the interchange, as well as installing Genius aluminium rainscreen which was supplied by RGB Facades. Behind both facade systems, we installed an Ash & Lacy AxiAL helping hand bracket and rail system with ROCKWOOL UK Rainscreen Duo-slab insulation and PFC Corofil cavity fire barriers supplied by Encon & Nevill Long You can check out the full list of finalists here - https://lnkd.in/eC_CrrCG #awards #constructionuk #stockport #roofingawards2025 #RA2025 #facade #cladding

"How does MechSlip actually install on-site—and why does it matter?" Plenty of systems claim to save time. However, MechSlip’s value lies in its installation. This isn’t a cladding concept—it’s a tried and tested system using real clay brick slips, designed for repeatable, efficient installation. Here’s how it works: 1) Carrier rails fixed to the backing structure Installed directly to a suitable substrate—lightweight framing, concrete or blockwork. No wet trades are needed at this stage. 2) Real brick slips clipped in mechanically These aren’t imitation panels—they’re genuine brick slips, cut from standard facing bricks. Each slip mechanically locks into horizontal rails. 3) Slips installed course by course Installers work in a clean sequence, achieving consistent daily rates of 10–12 m² per day, typically with two operatives. 4) Pointing is applied once slips are fixed Yes—MechSlip still needs to be pointed. But because the bed and perp joints are pre-defined by the rail spacing, the pointing is cleaner, faster, and more consistent than traditional brickwork. 5) No curing time, no waiting around Pointing can follow immediately—no delay between brickwork and finishing. And because it's a dry-fix system, there's no downtime for weather-related curing issues. Why it matters: * Scaffold can come down earlier * Work can be sequenced more predictably * Labour requirements are lower and easier to plan * Installers don’t need bricklaying skills—just training on the system * Snagging and rework are reduced Same bricks. Different method. Better outcomes. 🎥 See the installation method for yourself: https://lnkd.in/eSXtTnfG #MechSlip #BrickCladding #InstallationProcess #ConstructionEfficiency #ProgrammeDelivery #RealBrick #FaçadeSystems Ash & Lacy Ibstock Plc
