The project is the latest in a long line of MoD contracts that Russell Roof Tiles has secured.

Already underway, the project comprises 62 existing MoD homes on Norton Road in Fareham which are having a complete upgrade to bring them up to the latest standards.

A number of elements throughout the houses will be updated as well as the roofing which includes new insulation, fascias and soffits installed by Hampshire based Protec Roofing Ltd, for whom Russell Roof Tiles will be supplying Double Roman tiles in Peat Brown.

Estimated to be complete by Spring 2025, the improvements will ensure that the housing is compliant with latest British Standards and of the highest quality for service families as part of the MoD’s commitment to providing essential accommodation for UK military families.
