Derby Cathedral has been highly commended in the Construction Project of the Year category at the East Midlands Property Dinner 2018.
The award follows the renewal of the nave roof after the lead had split causing leaks due to design faults made 50 years ago.
Repairs included a new lead roof, stonework, coping stone, balustrade repairs, strengthening rotten roof joists and the provision of overflows. Two roof hatches were installed to allow access to the parapet gutters for maintenance.
The Construction Project of the Year category rewards innovative and challenging construction projects that have been delivered on time and to budget in the East Midlands
