What do commercial & industrial rooflights in Purley involve?
Thinking about commercial & industrial rooflights in Purley? 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.
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. Commercial & industrial rooflights suit warehouses, schools, offices and retail units.
Neighbouring towns include Coulsdon (3 km) and South Croydon (3 km). We offer a survey date when we reply to your enquiry.

Building control and safety duties in Purley
On commercial roofs the main questions are usually building control, fire classification of rooflight materials and safe access rather than householder permitted development. Product data for building control is supplied with every quote.
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.
Our planning guide covers each nation in more detail.
