Trade flat rooflights in Colchester

Flat rooflights for Colchester jobs

A flat rooflight should not be laid dead flat. Water needs to run off, so the upstand is built to a slight fall or the unit has one built in.

The inner pane is laminated so that if the glass breaks it stays in place rather than falling into the room below.

• Double or triple glazed
• Minimal or hidden aluminium frame
• Square and rectangular sizes
• Solar-control glass options

Flat rooflights need a fall so water runs off. Build the upstand to a slight slope or use a unit with a built-in fall, and give us the upstand size.

Regulations for jobs in Colchester

Replacement rooflights and roof lanterns in England should meet a U-value of 2.2 W/m²K under Approved Document L. A lantern in a new extension is covered by the extension's own building regulations approval. Replacing a glazed or polycarbonate conservatory roof with a solid roof usually takes the conservatory out of the exemption, so building control approval is normally needed.
