What do dome rooflights in Feltham involve?
Our dome rooflights service in Feltham 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.
Victorian and Edwardian terraces with narrow side returns are typical of much of London, and a glass roof or long flat rooflight is the usual way to keep the back rooms bright once the return is built over. In Feltham, as anywhere, dome rooflights are the usual choice for schools, flats and commercial flat roofs.
Feltham sits about 3 km from Ashford, Surrey and 4 km from Hounslow, and we cover the whole TW13 postcode district and the roads in between.
Options we can specify in Feltham
- Clear, opal or tinted
- Fixed or hinged with vent
- Polycarbonate or acrylic
- Fall-through protection mesh
- Twin, triple or quad skin
- Light, impact-resistant domes
- Smoke-vent versions available
Before you order: points to check
- Old domes may be fragile — treat as fragile until checked
- Plastic domes have a lower acoustic and thermal performance than glass
Building control and safety duties in Feltham
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.

Dome rooflights in Feltham: 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.
Are domes safe to walk on?
No. Treat any rooflight as fragile unless it is specifically certified non-fragile, and never stand on it.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Feltham?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
Can you work alongside my builder in Feltham?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
