What do dome rooflights in Stoke-on-Trent involve?
Thinking about dome rooflights in Stoke-on-Trent? 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.
Industrial and commercial units around Midlands towns often still have their original rooflight sheets, which are due for replacement. Think of dome rooflights for older flat roofs with yellowed or leaking domes.
We cover all of Stoke-on-Trent and the ST1 district, and nearby Newcastle-under-Lyme and Longton.
Options we can specify in Stoke-on-Trent
- Fall-through protection mesh
- Clear, opal or tinted
- Fixed or hinged with vent
- Polycarbonate or acrylic
- Insulated PVC or GRP upstands
- Suits schools, flats and commercial roofs
- Light, impact-resistant domes
Before you order: points to check
- Old domes may be fragile — treat as fragile until checked
- Upstand condition decides whether you replace dome only or the whole unit
Regulations for dome rooflights in Stoke-on-Trent
On commercial roofs the main questions are usually building control, fire classification of rooflight materials and safe access rather than householder permitted development. We confirm the route for your building before ordering.
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.

Yes, if the upstand is sound and the size matches. Otherwise we replace both.
Can domes open?
Hinged and vented domes are available, manual or electric.
Can you work alongside my builder in Stoke-on-Trent?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
