The capability of roofing systems is only as good as the relationship between the manufacturer and the installing contractor and particularly affects the workmanship standards set during the installation process. Sika-Trocal are proud to boast better relationships than many in the flat roofing sector, including a one with licensed roofing contractor CA Single Ply that stretches to over 100 years collective experience within the market.
CA Single Ply form part of the Cambridge Asphalte Group and has been a Sika-Trocal licensed contractor since 2003. During this period of time the company has been involved in a wide portfolio of jobs in the commercial sector for schools, universities, healthcare trusts and retail developments etc. The company is also experienced in the green roof sector.
CA Single Ply is particularly focused on health and safety and quality standards as their gold award for CSCS commitment; RMS health and safety management, CHAS accreditation and ISO 9001 registration shows. The company also works with the Eastern Region Roof Training Group Ltd and was training company of the year in 2008. CA are also an active member of their trade body, SPRA.
The Sika-Trocal concept is not just product related, it extends itself to business support, training and on-site assistance for companies such as CA Single Ply. When contractors need it most, there’s the added value of dealing with a company that has 37 years experience in the UK market, which is also part of the global Sika Group and that means greater resources at the sharp end.
Tony Wadsworth, managing director of the Cambridge Asphalt Group comments: “There’s much more to Sika-Trocal than just the product and similarly we as a business offer considerably more than many other contractors in terms of tight health and safety policies and staff development. It’s about offering that little bit extra to the end client and with the support of Sika-Trocal we are able to do just that.”
