Dome rooflights in Ledbury: what is involved?
Dome rooflights in Ledbury means polycarbonate and acrylic domes for flat roofs, new or replacement. We cover the HR8 district and the rest of Herefordshire, with a survey before any price is fixed.
Older terraced streets in Midlands towns often have back additions and side passages that suit a ridge rooflight or long flat rooflight. Think of dome rooflights for schools, flats and commercial flat roofs.
Ledbury sits about 11 km from Great Malvern and 16 km from Ross-on-Wye, and we cover the whole HR8 postcode district and the roads in between.

Rules and responsibilities in Ledbury
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.
Read the planning permission guide before you commit to a design.

Common questions
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 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 Ledbury?
Yes. We survey and fit dome rooflights in Ledbury and across Herefordshire. Send your postcode and we will offer a survey date when we reply.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Ledbury?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
