What do commercial & industrial rooflights in Winchester involve?
Our commercial & industrial rooflights service in Winchester 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.
Larger gardens in much of the South East mean deeper rear extensions, and deeper rooms need light from above rather than only from the doors. Commercial & industrial rooflights suit warehouses, schools, offices and retail units.
Jobs in Winchester 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.
Options we can specify in Winchester
- Modular glass rooflights
- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- Smoke-vent options where needed
- Fall-protection planning included
Things we check at survey
- Fire performance of rooflight materials matters near boundaries
- Fragile rooflights are a known fall hazard — work at height must be planned
Building control and safety duties in Winchester
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. Fire classification of rooflight materials near boundaries is checked at specification.
Read the planning permission guide before you commit to a design.
