What do commercial & industrial rooflights in Kingston upon Thames involve?
Commercial & industrial rooflights in Kingston upon Thames means rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units. We cover the KT1 district and the rest of Greater London, with a survey before any price is fixed.
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. In Kingston upon Thames, as anywhere, commercial & industrial rooflights are the usual choice for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units.
Jobs in Kingston upon Thames are planned around access: whether the roof can be reached from the garden, whether a hoist or crane is needed, and where we can park. We check this when we measure.
What you can choose
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- Polycarbonate domes
- Modular glass rooflights
- Barrel vaults, ridge lights and modular glass
- Fall-protection planning included
What to check first
- Asbestos surveys may be needed on older roofs
- Fire performance of rooflight materials matters near boundaries
Building control and safety duties in Kingston upon Thames
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.
Read the planning permission guide before you commit to a design.

Common questions
Can you replace old warehouse rooflight sheets?
Yes. We match the roof profile, replace discoloured or damaged sheets and plan safe access while the building stays in use.
Can you quote from drawings?
Yes, with a site survey to confirm.
Are old rooflights a safety risk?
Older plastic rooflight sheets can become brittle. Anyone working on the roof must treat them as fragile unless proven otherwise.
Can you work alongside my builder in Kingston upon Thames?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.

Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
