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.
Is your address covered?
Covering Hoyland means covering the people who live and work there, not a single postcode. We take on domestic and commercial jobs in S74, S73 and S70, and are happy to quote further out in Chapeltown and Wombwell. If your address sits between towns, tell us and we will confirm whether it falls in our normal area or needs travel set out separately on the quote.
What the job includes
- Roof survey of every unit, kerb and the fragile areas around them
- Kerbs checked and packed, adapted or rebuilt where needed
- Access, edge protection and fragile-roof covers planned before work starts
- Working around occupied buildings — We plan noise, dust and access around the people using the building.
- Glass or polycarbonate — We compare glass and polycarbonate units against the roof, use and budget.
How a fitting day runs
Fitting days start with a look at the sky. If rain is due, the order of work changes so the roof is never left open to it. A typical day for a commercial rooflight runs like this: set up access, protect the room, open up the roof or prepare the existing kerb or frame, check sizes, fix, seal, then finish inside. On jobs that take more than a day, the opening is weather-sealed overnight. The last hour goes on tidying, waste removal and a walk-round with you.
Do you need permission in Hoyland?
On commercial buildings in England, new rooflights and changes to roof structure go through building control, and replacements in non-dwellings also need building control involvement unless fitted by a scheme-registered installer, which we are not; load-bearing or structural glass always goes through building control. Fire rules matter near boundaries and over escape routes, and smoke vents must be certified to BS EN 12101-2. We confirm the route and the paperwork for your building before work starts.
What to send for a quick quote
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 S74 and we will come back with a quote or a survey date.
Common questions in Hoyland
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.
What is included in the price?
The written quote lists it line by line. Typically that covers fitting labour, fixings, sealants, membrane or flashing materials, any upstand work, internal finishing if agreed, and taking away the waste. For supply and fit, the unit itself is included too. Scaffold, lifting gear and any third-party fees, where needed, are shown separately so you can see what each part of the job costs.
Who is responsible for the smoke-control system?
The building's responsible person, duty holder or managing agent, depending on the nation, is responsible for keeping fire safety systems working. Our part is the rooflight and roof work; the controls, detection and commissioning are handled by a smoke-control specialist, and the quote says who does what.
