Commercial & industrial rooflights for Leicester: the essentials
Our commercial & industrial rooflights service in Leicester 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.
Bungalows are common across parts of the Midlands, and sun tunnels or roof windows are a quick way to brighten internal hallways. Think of commercial & industrial rooflights for industrial roofs with tired or fragile rooflight sheets.
Leicester is the main town we list in Leicestershire; we also cover nearby Oadby and Wigston.
Options we can specify in Leicester
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- Polycarbonate domes
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas
- Barrel vaults, ridge lights and modular glass
- Planned around working sites
Before you order: points to check
- Non-fragility classification should be confirmed for new products
- Fire performance of rooflight materials matters near boundaries
Building control and safety duties in Leicester
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. Fragile-roof safety and access are planned before work starts.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.
