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.
Covering CF34 and neighbouring districts
Jobs across CF34, CF32 and CF33 are part of our normal cover for Maesteg. We are not an office on the high street. Our fitting teams come out to the property from wherever they are working that week. Neighbouring places such as Briton Ferry and Neath are covered on the same terms, so a house on the edge of town is no harder to book than one in the centre.
What the job includes
- Unit schedule and handover notes for the building's records
- Roof survey of every unit, kerb and the fragile areas around them
- Phasing agreed so occupied areas stay dry and usable
- Working around occupied buildings — We plan noise, dust and access around the people using the building.
- Fire performance near boundaries — We check how close the rooflights are to the site boundary and to escape routes.
How a fitting day runs
Protection comes before tools. Floors, furniture and stairs get covered, and the ceiling below the opening is sheeted to catch dust. Up top, the fitters confirm the opening is square and the upstand or flashing suits what the maker specifies. Fixing follows, then weather-sealing into the membrane, felt or tiles. Only once the roof is tight do they turn to the internal reveal. Time on site for a commercial rooflight: about a day per unit, longer on big roofs, weather permitting.
Regulations for Maesteg properties
Non-domestic rooflight work in Wales follows the Welsh Approved Documents: energy limits for the glazing, fire checks near boundaries and over escape routes, and building control for new openings. Planning depends on the building and its location. We set out the route on your quote.
Before you get in touch
What we cannot see, we have to guess, and guesses make quotes wider. So the more you send, the tighter the price. Useful: shots from the roof or garden, shots from the room underneath, a rough width and length, the roof finish, any access problems, and the product page if you have already ordered. Add the property postcode around CF34 and we will come back with a quote or a survey date.
Common questions in Maesteg
Do you need scaffolding to fit a rooflight?
Not always. Single-storey roofs can often be reached safely with ladders, a tower or edge protection. Higher roofs, steep pitches and large units usually need scaffold or a mobile platform, and heavy glass may need a crane. We assess access from your photos or at the survey, and any scaffold or lifting cost is shown as its own line on the written quote.
How does payment work?
Payment terms are set out on your written quote before you accept it. Depending on the job, that may mean a deposit, stage payments for larger work, or payment on completion. The contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, part of the S&K Group. Nothing is added without your agreement: if something unexpected comes up, we discuss it and agree any change before carrying on.
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.
