Commercial & industrial rooflights in Consett: what is involved?
For Consett homes and buildings we offer commercial & industrial rooflights: rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units. We measure first, specify to the opening and confirm any planning or building-control points before quoting.
Older flat-roofed extensions in the North East are often due a new roof covering — the right time to upgrade the rooflight too. In Consett, as anywhere, commercial & industrial rooflights are the usual choice for industrial roofs with tired or fragile rooflight sheets.
Neighbouring towns include Stanley (9 km) and Newburn (16 km). We offer a survey date when we reply to your enquiry.
Choices for your Consett project
- Polycarbonate domes
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents

- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas

Before you order: points to check
- Fire performance of rooflight materials matters near boundaries
- Non-fragility classification should be confirmed for new products
Building control and safety duties in Consett
For non-domestic buildings, planning depends on the building and its location; building regulations cover thermal performance and the fire classification of rooflights near boundaries. 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. Fire classification of rooflight materials near boundaries is checked at specification.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.
