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 Rugby we cover
Jobs across CV21, CV22 and CV23 are part of our normal cover for Rugby. 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 Daventry and Coventry 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
- Kerbs checked and packed, adapted or rebuilt where needed
- Roof survey of every unit, kerb and the fragile areas around them
- Working around occupied buildings — We plan noise, dust and access around the people using the building.
- Energy limits for non-domestic roofs — We check new units against the energy limits for non-domestic buildings.
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 Rugby
For non-domestic roofs in England, expect building control involvement for new openings, energy limits of 2.2 W/m²K for rooflights, and fire checks where rooflights sit near a boundary or above an escape route. Smoke ventilation rooflights must be certified products, with controls commissioned by a specialist. We set out what applies to your building on the quote.
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, CV21 or nearby, confirms travel.
Common questions in Rugby
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.
Do you cover Rugby?
Yes. Fitters travel to addresses in Rugby and the surrounding districts, including CV21. We do not run an office there; the survey and the fitting happen at your property. A few island and remote postcodes are covered by arrangement; if yours is one, we confirm travel and dates before quoting.
