Commercial & industrial rooflights for Sheffield: the essentials
Our commercial & industrial rooflights service in Sheffield 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.
Many Yorkshire homes have had kitchen extensions with flat roofs, where a larger glass rooflight is a straightforward upgrade from an old dome. Commercial & industrial rooflights suit warehouses, schools, offices and retail units.
Sheffield is the main town we list in South Yorkshire; we also cover nearby Rotherham and Dronfield.

Building control and safety duties in Sheffield
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.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.

Common questions
Can rooflights double as smoke vents?
Some units are certified smoke ventilators. See our smoke-vent rooflights page.
Are old rooflights a safety risk?
Older plastic rooflight sheets can become brittle. Anyone working on the roof must treat them as fragile unless proven otherwise.
Do you supply O&M information?
Yes — product data, manufacturer warranties and maintenance notes are handed over at completion.
How do I book a survey in Sheffield?
Send your postcode and, if you can, a photo of the roof and the room. We offer a survey date when we reply.
Can you work alongside my builder in Sheffield?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
