How we approach commercial & industrial rooflights in Chelsea
Our commercial & industrial rooflights service in Chelsea covers rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units. Every job starts with a survey of the opening, the roof covering and the room below, and a fixed written price.
Many London roofs are reached only through the house or over neighbouring property, so lifting heavy glass is planned at survey rather than on the day. Typical uses for commercial & industrial rooflights include warehouses, schools, offices and retail units.
Neighbouring towns include Battersea (2 km) and Wandsworth (2 km). We offer a survey date when we reply to your enquiry.
Specification options
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Modular glass rooflights
- Polycarbonate domes
- Fall-protection planning included
- Barrel vaults, ridge lights and modular glass
Before you order: points to check
- Fragile rooflights are a known fall hazard — work at height must be planned
- Asbestos surveys may be needed on older roofs
Regulations for commercial & industrial rooflights in Chelsea
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. Fire classification of rooflight materials near boundaries is checked at specification.
