Case Study - Type E [Roof Tie Beam]

COMPANY LOCATION - Dawlish, Devon

SITE - Bindon House, Somerset

TRS TYPE - Type E

SIZE - 290mm x 270mm 750mm

MADE IN - Softwood

COMMENTS - now converted into a high class Country House Hotel and Restaurant, this semi-derelict house had been badly affected by Dry rot.

Tamblyn Preservation of Dawlish carried out extensive Dry rot irrigation and Damp-proofing works and chose the TRS as the preferred method of repairing the ends of the 3 main roof tie beams. These had been attacked after penetrating dampness from defective guttering had soaked them over many years. The beams were cut off and replaced without further damage to the ornate ceilings.
