Dome rooflights for Wood Green: the essentials
Thinking about dome rooflights in Wood Green? 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.
Many London roofs are reached only through the house or over neighbouring property, so lifting heavy glass is planned at survey rather than on the day. Typical uses for dome rooflights include schools, flats and commercial flat roofs.
Wood Green is around 10 km from central London, and we survey and fit throughout that part of Greater London, including the N22 district.
Choices for your Wood Green project
- Insulated PVC or GRP upstands
- Clear, opal or tinted
- Fall-through protection mesh
- Twin, triple or quad skin
- Fixed or hinged with vent
- Suits schools, flats and commercial roofs
- Smoke-vent versions available
Before you order: points to check
- Plastic domes have a lower acoustic and thermal performance than glass
- Fire classification matters on some roofs
Regulations for dome rooflights in Wood Green
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. Fragile-roof safety and access are planned before work starts.

Questions about dome rooflights in Wood Green
Should I replace a dome or switch to glass?
A dome is cheaper and quick; glass gives a clear view and better performance. On a tight budget, or a commercial roof with many units, domes remain sensible.
Are domes safe to walk on?
No. Treat any rooflight as fragile unless it is specifically certified non-fragile, and never stand on it.
Can you replace just the dome?
Yes, if the upstand is sound and the size matches. Otherwise we replace both.
Can you work alongside my builder in Wood Green?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
Do you fit dome rooflights in Wood Green?
Yes. We survey and fit dome rooflights in Wood Green and across Greater London. Send your postcode and we will offer a survey date when we reply.
