How we approach commercial & industrial rooflights in Redditch
For Redditch 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.
Older terraced streets in Midlands towns often have back additions and side passages that suit a ridge rooflight or long flat rooflight. In Redditch, as anywhere, commercial & industrial rooflights are the usual choice for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units.
Redditch sits about 8 km from Bromsgrove and 11 km from Alcester, and we cover the whole B97 postcode district and the roads in between.
What you can choose
- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- Modular glass rooflights
- Fall-protection planning included
- 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 Redditch
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. Fragile-roof safety and access are planned before work starts.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.
