Commercial & industrial rooflights for Eastbourne: the essentials
Thinking about commercial & industrial rooflights in Eastbourne? 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.
Orangery-style extensions with lanterns are popular across the South East, and solar-control glass makes a big difference on south-facing gardens. Commercial & industrial rooflights suit industrial roofs with tired or fragile rooflight sheets.
Eastbourne sits about 11 km from Hailsham and 13 km from Seaford, and we cover the whole BN21 postcode district and the roads in between.
What you can choose
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- Polycarbonate domes
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Modular glass rooflights
- Daylight that reduces daytime lighting
- Replacement of discoloured or fragile sheets
Before you order: points to check
- Fire performance of rooflight materials matters near boundaries
- Asbestos surveys may be needed on older roofs
Regulations for commercial & industrial rooflights in Eastbourne
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.
