What are commercial & industrial rooflights?
Commercial & industrial rooflights in Bedfordshire means rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units. Every quote follows a survey of the roof and the room below.
Period cottages and conservation-area streets are common in the South East, so slim conservation rooflights are often the right choice. Many South East homes have been extended more than once, and an old dome over an earlier extension is often due for replacement.

Planning and building rules in England
On commercial roofs the main questions are usually building control, fire classification of rooflight materials and safe access rather than householder permitted development. We confirm the route for your building before ordering.
For buildings other than dwellings, Approved Document L Volume 2 sets limiting U-values of 2.2 W/m²K for rooflights and 3.0 W/m²K for roof ventilators, including smoke vents. Fragile-roof safety and access are planned before work starts.

How the job runs
- Tell us about the roof. Send the postcode, rough sizes and a photo or two through the form, WhatsApp or the guide-price tool.
- Free survey. For new installations a surveyor measures the opening, checks the roof build-up and talks through glass and options.
- Fixed written quote. You get the product, the work and the price in writing. Nothing is ordered or paid for until you agree.
- Fitting and handover. We fit, seal and make good, then hand over product data, warranties and any certificate paperwork.

Common questions
Can you replace old warehouse rooflight sheets?
Yes. We match the roof profile, replace discoloured or damaged sheets and plan safe access while the building stays in use.
Do you supply O&M information?
Yes — product data, manufacturer warranties and maintenance notes are handed over at completion.
Do you work out of hours?
For occupied buildings we can plan phased or out-of-hours working where access allows.
Can you quote from drawings?
Yes, with a site survey to confirm.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Bedfordshire?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
