Case Study
Bradford City AFC
Club Shop Roof Replacement
As the official projects partner for Bradford City AFC, we were tasked with resolving significant issues in the club shop roof, which had deteriorated and developed extensive leaks. A thorough inspection confirmed the need for a complete rebuild to ensure a durable, weather-tight solution.
The Challenge
The roof project presented several challenges. Lifting the existing roof revealed extensive pooling in certain areas, a result of sealant failure and ageing. The structure’s deterioration made a full rebuild unavoidable. The decision was made to strip back the old roof and install a new apex roof to resolve all underlying issues with a more durable and reliable solution.
The Solution
The team undertook a comprehensive rebuild of the roof, which included installing new timbers, upgrading insulation, applying new boarding and re-felting. The new apex design was chosen for its improved durability while preventing any further water pooling.
The project was delivered as a complete turnkey solution, with all aspects managed by the team at Stadium Support Services. The team liaised with the local council to secure permits, coordinated scaffolding and oversaw the roof replacement from design to completion. Thanks to favourable weather conditions, the project was completed ahead of schedule, reducing the timeline from six weeks to four.
“The team’s expertise and efficiency exceeded expectations. The new apex roof is a significant upgrade and was delivered ahead of schedule. We’re thrilled with the result and grateful for the professional approach throughout.”Paula Watson, Director of Operations, Bradford City AFC
