Commercial & industrial rooflights for Harlow: the essentials
Commercial & industrial rooflights in Harlow means rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units. We cover the CM17 district and the rest of Essex, with a survey before any price is fixed.
Coastal towns in the East of England see salty air, so we specify frame finishes and fixings with exposure in mind. Commercial & industrial rooflights suit warehouses, schools, offices and retail units.
Harlow sits about 9 km from Hoddesdon and 11 km from Bishop's Stortford, and we cover the whole CM17 postcode district and the roads in between.

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.
