Dome rooflights for Newbury: the essentials
Our dome rooflights service in Newbury covers polycarbonate and acrylic domes for flat roofs, new or replacement. Every job starts with a survey of the opening, the roof covering and the room below, and a fixed written price.
Across the South East, single-storey kitchen extensions on 1930s semis and post-war detached houses are where most flat rooflights and lanterns go. Typical uses for dome rooflights include schools, flats and commercial flat roofs.
Neighbouring towns include Thatcham (4 km) and Wantage (22 km). We offer a survey date when we reply to your enquiry.

Rules and responsibilities in Newbury
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 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.

Dome rooflights in Newbury: questions
Can domes open?
Hinged and vented domes are available, manual or electric.
Do domes leak?
Leaks are usually at the upstand seal or the membrane. Replacing the dome and resealing often fixes it.
Can you replace just the dome?
Yes, if the upstand is sound and the size matches. Otherwise we replace both.
Do you fit dome rooflights in Newbury?
Yes. We survey and fit dome rooflights in Newbury and across Berkshire. Send your postcode and we will offer a survey date when we reply.
Can you work alongside my builder in Newbury?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
