As part of The Ritz London’s extensive multi-million-pound refurbishment, the lower level of Grade II*-listed William Kent House has been transformed into a new dining space.

The building now features a striking modern rooflight and a new rooftop area designed primarily for maintenance access. Although not publicly accessible, the roof is highly visible from surrounding hotel bedrooms, making aesthetics just as important as performance.

Buzon installed a Class A fire-rated raised paving system, incorporating A-PED adjustable pedestals, joists and large-format 1200x600x20mm porcelain paving. The system provides a durable, level surface while creating accessible space beneath the paving for maintenance.

The installation required meticulous setting out and precision cutting around the rooflight, downpipes and other complex details to achieve a clean, refined snag-free finish that complements the exceptional surroundings of The Ritz.

The result is a discreet, high-performance rooftop solution combining fire-rated construction, practical maintenance access and architectural aesthetics.
