Commercial & industrial rooflights in Aylesbury: what is involved?
Thinking about commercial & industrial rooflights in Aylesbury? 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.
Across the South East, single-storey kitchen extensions on 1930s semis and post-war detached houses are where most flat rooflights and lanterns go. In Aylesbury, as anywhere, commercial & industrial rooflights are the usual choice for industrial roofs with tired or fragile rooflight sheets.
We work across Buckinghamshire, including Aylesbury, and in neighbouring towns such as Leighton Buzzard and Berkhamsted. Access, parking and how the glass reaches the roof are all checked at the survey.
Options we can specify in Aylesbury
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- Modular glass rooflights
- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas
- Polycarbonate domes
- Daylight that reduces daytime lighting
- Barrel vaults, ridge lights and modular glass
Before you order: points to check
- Fire performance of rooflight materials matters near boundaries
- Asbestos surveys may be needed on older roofs
Building control and safety duties in Aylesbury
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.
Our planning guide covers each nation in more detail.
