Heritage conservation meets modern FM at Tower Bridge roof refurbishment
FMJ
A planned preventative maintenance programme at Grade I listed Tower Bridge has replaced deteriorated 1960s asphalt waterproofing on three external ticket office roofs. The project demanded the highest standards in conservation, safety and technical delivery on one of the UK's most iconic structures.
FM Radar's 3 takeaways:
- Original 1960s asphalt waterproofing had reached end of serviceable life across three independent roofs
- Grade I listed status required specialist conservation-grade materials and methods
- Demonstrates how planned preventative maintenance extends asset life on heritage buildings
