Programme of works
Phased replacement across a building, priced from a survey
Guide ranges for supply & fit, per unit; site set-up priced separately. Your price is fixed in a written quote after we have seen photos or surveyed. Scaffold, access towers or a crane are priced separately if the job needs them, and building control fees, where a job needs them, are shown as their own line.
Areas around Banbridge we cover
Fitters travel to the job, so the address is what counts. In Banbridge that means postcode districts BT32, BT25 and BT31, and the same teams can just as easily take on work in Craigavon, about 8 miles away, or Portadown at roughly 8 miles. Survey and fitting dates are offered according to fitter availability, and travel is built into the quote rather than added later.
Included in the work
- Kerbs checked and packed, adapted or rebuilt where needed
- Old units removed, with waste taken off site
- Roof survey of every unit, kerb and the fragile areas around them
- Fragile roofs and rooflights — We treat every rooflight and the roof around it as fragile until we have checked it.
- Glass or polycarbonate — We compare glass and polycarbonate units against the roof, use and budget.
Fitting your commercial rooflight, step by step
Arrive and agree the plan. Sheet the floor and furniture. Set up the ladder, tower or scaffold. Check the opening, the upstand or flashing, and the unit against the paperwork. Fix and pack a commercial rooflight level. Seal it into the roof. Line the reveal or fit the ceiling trim. Clean the glass, clear the waste, and talk you through it. That is the shape of most fitting days, and for this type of job it usually takes about a day per unit, longer on big roofs.
Planning, building control and Banbridge
Non-domestic rooflight work in Northern Ireland needs building control for new openings, glazing that meets the Technical Booklet energy limits, and fire checks near boundaries. Planning depends on the building and location. We set out what applies before quoting.
Before you get in touch
Each detail you send takes a question off our list. Photos inside and out show the opening and the ceiling. Rough measurements tell us the unit size. The roof covering tells us how it will be sealed in. Access notes tell us whether a tower or scaffold is needed. A product link, if you have one, lets us check it against the opening. Your postcode, BT32 or nearby, confirms travel.
Common questions in Banbridge
Do commercial rooflights need planning permission?
Like-for-like replacements on commercial buildings rarely need planning permission. New or larger rooflights on non-domestic buildings and blocks of flats usually need checking with the planning authority, because householder permitted development rights don't apply. We tell you what we know about your building and point you to the right team.
Does a rooflight need building control approval?
In Northern Ireland a new opening alters the roof structure, so expect a building control application; confirm the position with your council, including for replacements. The new rooflight must meet WER Band C or 1.6 W/m²K. We confirm what applies before you commit.
Can you remove and dispose of the old rooflight?
Yes. Taking out the old unit is part of any replacement job, and it leaves with the rest of the waste unless you ask to keep it. Old domes, glass and frames go through proper waste routes. If removal turns up a rotten kerb or damaged decking, we show you what we have found and agree the repair with you before going any further.
