How we approach commercial & industrial rooflights in Burnley
We handle commercial & industrial rooflights across Lancashire, including Burnley. In short: rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units. The survey checks structure, weathering and orientation, so the quote reflects your actual roof.
The North West gets more rain than most of England, so upstand height, membrane detailing and rain sensors on opening units are not optional extras. Typical uses for commercial & industrial rooflights include industrial roofs with tired or fragile rooflight sheets.
Burnley is around 31 km from Preston, and we survey and fit throughout that part of Lancashire, including the BB11 district.
What you can choose
- Polycarbonate domes
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas
- Barrel vaults, ridge lights and modular glass
- Replacement of discoloured or fragile sheets
Before you order: points to check
- Asbestos surveys may be needed on older roofs
- Fire performance of rooflight materials matters near boundaries
Regulations for commercial & industrial rooflights in Burnley
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.
