Commercial & industrial rooflights for Rickmansworth: the essentials
Thinking about commercial & industrial rooflights in Rickmansworth? 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 South East homes have been extended more than once, and an old dome over an earlier extension is often due for replacement. Commercial & industrial rooflights suit warehouses, schools, offices and retail units.
Rickmansworth is around 6 km from Watford, and we survey and fit throughout that part of Hertfordshire, including the WD3 district.
Specification options
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Polycarbonate domes
- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- Barrel vaults, ridge lights and modular glass
- Replacement of discoloured or fragile sheets
Before you order: points to check
- 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 Rickmansworth
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.
