Torosay Castle
Our client, a prospective purchaser of the A Listed Victorian castle on the Island of Mull, commissioned GLM to design and project manage the repairs that we had recommended in our building survey of the property. The roof was leaking and there was decay in many of the built-in timbers, as well as structural movement.
We went out to tender to a number of specialist roofing and building contractors. B&D Roofing, of Dalkeith, won the tender and proceeded to renew all the slate and leadwork, repairing the stucture under the direction of conservation structural engineers Elliot & Co. The project was completed on time and on budget. As far as quality is concerned B&D’s conscientious work has been recognised by the National Federation of Roofing Contractors. The project won the Heritage Category of the National Roofing Awards, in Scotland, a considerable accolade!
