What do commercial & industrial rooflights in Borehamwood involve?
For Borehamwood 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.
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. Think of commercial & industrial rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units.
We work across Hertfordshire, including Borehamwood, and in neighbouring towns such as Barnet and Bushey. Access, parking and how the glass reaches the roof are all checked at the survey.
What you can choose
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- Polycarbonate domes
- Modular glass rooflights
- Planned around working sites
- Fall-protection planning included
Things we check at survey
- Asbestos surveys may be needed on older roofs
- Non-fragility classification should be confirmed for new products
Regulations for commercial & industrial rooflights in Borehamwood
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.

Commercial & industrial rooflights in Borehamwood: questions
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 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 work alongside my builder in Borehamwood?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
How do I book a survey in Borehamwood?
Send your postcode and, if you can, a photo of the roof and the room. We offer a survey date when we reply.
