Commercial & industrial rooflights in Dover: what is involved?
Commercial & industrial rooflights in Dover means rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units. We cover the CT16 district and the rest of Kent, with a survey before any price is fixed.
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.
We work across Kent, including Dover, and in neighbouring towns such as Folkestone and Deal. Access, parking and how the glass reaches the roof are all checked at the survey.
What you can choose
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas
- Polycarbonate domes
- Modular glass rooflights
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- Smoke-vent options where needed
- Replacement of discoloured or fragile sheets
Things we check at survey
- Non-fragility classification should be confirmed for new products
- Fire performance of rooflight materials matters near boundaries
Building control and safety duties in Dover
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. 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.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.
