How we approach commercial & industrial rooflights in Cwmbran
For Cwmbran homes and buildings we offer commercial & industrial rooflights: rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units. We measure first, specify to the opening and confirm any planning or building-control points before quoting.
Many Welsh homes have older single-storey rear extensions where a glass rooflight brightens a dark kitchen. In Cwmbran, as anywhere, commercial & industrial rooflights are the usual choice for industrial roofs with tired or fragile rooflight sheets.
We work across Gwent, including Cwmbran, and in neighbouring towns such as Pontypool and Risca. Access, parking and how the glass reaches the roof are all checked at the survey.
Choices for your Cwmbran project
- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Polycarbonate domes
- Daylight that reduces daytime lighting
- Barrel vaults, ridge lights and modular glass
Before you order: points to check
- Fire performance of rooflight materials matters near boundaries
- Asbestos surveys may be needed on older roofs
Building control and safety duties in Cwmbran
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 non-domestic buildings in Wales, Approved Document L sets limiting U-values for rooflights and roof ventilators; we supply the manufacturer's data for the building control submission. Fragile-roof safety and access are planned before work starts.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.

Commercial & industrial rooflights in Cwmbran: questions
Do you work out of hours?
For occupied buildings we can plan phased or out-of-hours working where access allows.
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.
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 Cwmbran?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Cwmbran?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
