How we approach dome rooflights in Huntly
Thinking about dome rooflights in Huntly? The short answer: polycarbonate and acrylic domes for flat roofs, new or replacement. The longer answer depends on your roof, which is why we survey before we price.
Scottish weather is hard on roofs, so we specify rooflights and roof windows with exposure in mind and fit upstands with generous heights. Dome rooflights suit older flat roofs with yellowed or leaking domes.
Huntly is around 53 km from Aberdeen, and we survey and fit throughout that part of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, including the AB54 district.
Specification options
- Clear, opal or tinted
- Fixed or hinged with vent
- Fall-through protection mesh
- Twin, triple or quad skin
- Polycarbonate or acrylic
- Low cost per unit
- Smoke-vent versions available
Before you order: points to check
- Old domes may be fragile — treat as fragile until checked
- Fire classification matters on some roofs
Regulations for dome rooflights in Huntly
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 non-domestic buildings in Scotland, the non-domestic Technical Handbook (section 6) sets the energy standards for rooflights; we supply the manufacturer's data for the building warrant. Fragile-roof safety and access are planned before work starts.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.

Can domes open?
Hinged and vented domes are available, manual or electric.
Are domes safe to walk on?
No. Treat any rooflight as fragile unless it is specifically certified non-fragile, and never stand on it.
Why has my dome gone yellow?
UV breaks down older plastics over time. Modern domes have UV-protective layers, but all plastics age.
