Commercial & industrial rooflights for Droitwich: the essentials
For Droitwich homes and buildings we offer commercial & industrial rooflights: rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units. We measure first, specify to the opening and confirm any planning or building-control points before quoting.
Many Midlands semis have had a single-storey rear extension added, and a larger flat rooflight or lantern is often the change that makes it feel finished. Typical uses for commercial & industrial rooflights include industrial roofs with tired or fragile rooflight sheets.
Droitwich is around 10 km from Worcester, and we survey and fit throughout that part of Worcestershire, including the WR9 district.
Options we can specify in Droitwich
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- Modular glass rooflights
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas
- Daylight that reduces daytime lighting
- Replacement of discoloured or fragile sheets
Things we check at survey
- Non-fragility classification should be confirmed for new products
- Asbestos surveys may be needed on older roofs
Rules and responsibilities in Droitwich
On commercial roofs the main questions are usually building control, fire classification of rooflight materials and safe access rather than householder permitted development. 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.

- Fixed quote. Product, work and price in writing — nothing is ordered until you agree.

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.

For occupied buildings we can plan phased or out-of-hours working where access allows.
Can you quote from drawings?
Yes, with a site survey to confirm.
Can you work alongside my builder in Droitwich?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Droitwich?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
