Asphalt and built-up felt roofing: durability
EFFICIENT INSTALLATION
Installing Neuchatel is fast, safe and incredibly quick to dry, so you can complete your project in a shorter time frame. Neuchatel can also be laid on most types of rigid sub-structure and we can lay up to 200sqm per day
SMARTER FINISH
A variety of textured finishes are available to suit the use of your building, each one designed with longevity in mind. Whether gripping for heavy traffic, UV protection for roofing, or a coloured decorative finish.
LOW MAINTENANCE
Our Mastic Asphalt is designed to be as low maintenance as possible, and therefore requires very little cleaning, so it would not need replacing for a very long time. Therefore it is the perfect material for areas where access is limited and irregular.
FAQ
HOW ROBUST IS IT?
It is the most robust system available on the market. One of the great attributes of the system is that once installed it can be used for storage and walked on without a problem. Sharp objects could penetrate the membrane but this is easily repaired.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
A 20mm (2x10mm) Neuchatel roofing system generally costs only slightly more than a two layer bituminous membrane system.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO LAY?
Despite being labour intensive, installing Neuchatel is surprisingly quick work. A skilled spreading team can complete around 200sqm of open deck area every day.
DOES IT SMELL?
Despite being labour intensive, installing Neuchatel is surprisingly quick work. A skilled spreading team can complete around 200sqm of open deck area every day.
WHAT SURFACE FINISHES ARE AVAILABLE?
A sand finish can be provided to produce a surface suitable for traffic. Alternatively a coating system must be applied for solar reflectivity and to provide a decorative finish.
