How we approach dome rooflights in Telford
We handle dome rooflights across Shropshire, including Telford. In short: polycarbonate and acrylic domes for flat roofs, new or replacement. The survey checks structure, weathering and orientation, so the quote reflects your actual roof.
Industrial and commercial units around Midlands towns often still have their original rooflight sheets, which are due for replacement. In Telford, as anywhere, dome rooflights are the usual choice for older flat roofs with yellowed or leaking domes.
We cover all of Telford and the TF3 district, and nearby Wellington and Bridgnorth.
Choices for your Telford project
- Twin, triple or quad skin
- Fall-through protection mesh
- Polycarbonate or acrylic
- Insulated PVC or GRP upstands
- Clear, opal or tinted
- Light, impact-resistant domes
- Fixed, hinged or vented options
Before you order: points to check
- Plastic domes have a lower acoustic and thermal performance than glass
- Old domes may be fragile — treat as fragile until checked
Regulations for dome rooflights in Telford
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.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.

Questions about dome rooflights in Telford
Can domes open?
Hinged and vented domes are available, manual or electric.
Can you replace just the dome?
Yes, if the upstand is sound and the size matches. Otherwise we replace both.
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.
Do you fit dome rooflights in Telford?
Yes. We survey and fit dome rooflights in Telford and across Shropshire. Send your postcode and we will offer a survey date when we reply.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Telford?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
