TERNE-COATED STEEL AT ST. MARTINS
At St Martin’s Church, North Perrott, thieves have visited this church on ten occasions and systematically removed all the lead roofing on the North and South Transept, Organ Chamber, Turret and the Nave.
To stop this happening again, the PCC decided to fit terne-coated stainless steel standing seam roofing.
The terne-coated stainless steel is a very tough product with a very long lifespan of 100 years plus. It is very hard to remove and has a very low recycling cost and therefore not worth stealing.
The “terne” coating is a mixture of zinc and tin, and will tone down over a couple of years and take on the appearance of lead or zinc.
CHURCH LEAD AND ZINC/LEAD ROOFS
Two lead and one zinc/lead roofs completed!
Main roofs code 8 sand cast hollow core rolls with code 9 sand cast gutter linings with zinc roof to the porch.
All timber in the gutters were relined to correct falls and step heights hence code 9 gutters. Also some stone masonry to the porch parapets.
