How we approach commercial & industrial rooflights in Clifton
Thinking about commercial & industrial rooflights in Clifton? The short answer: rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units. The longer answer depends on your roof, which is why we survey before we price.
Holiday lets and second homes across the South West often want roof windows with blinds and remote opening for when the house is empty. Commercial & industrial rooflights suit warehouses, schools, offices and retail units.
Neighbouring towns include Redland (2 km) and Bristol (2 km). We offer a survey date when we reply to your enquiry.

What to check first

- Fire performance of rooflight materials matters near boundaries
Building control and safety duties in Clifton
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.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.
