How we approach commercial & industrial rooflights in Taunton
Commercial & industrial rooflights in Taunton means rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units. We cover the TA1 district and the rest of Somerset, with a survey before any price is fixed.
Western coasts take wind-driven rain, so we pay close attention to upstand height and flashing laps on exposed roofs. Commercial & industrial rooflights suit industrial roofs with tired or fragile rooflight sheets.
Taunton is around 65 km from Bath, and we survey and fit throughout that part of Somerset, including the TA1 district.
What you can choose
- Modular glass rooflights
- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- Polycarbonate domes
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Replacement of discoloured or fragile sheets
- Daylight that reduces daytime lighting
What to check first
- Fragile rooflights are a known fall hazard — work at height must be planned
- Non-fragility classification should be confirmed for new products
Building control and safety duties in Taunton
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.
