Guide ranges for supply & fit; controls and commissioning by a smoke-control specialist. 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 warrant fees, where a job needs them, are shown as their own line.
Where our fitters travel
Our fitters come to you. For Stirling that covers FK9, FK7 and FK11, plus nearby Alloa and Falkirk. We do not keep a yard or showroom in the area, and you do not need to visit one. The survey happens at your property or, for fit-only work, from the photos you send. Dates follow fitter availability, which we confirm when you accept the quote.
On the day, we cover
- Old vent removed with the stairwell kept protected below
- New vent fitted, sealed and weathered into the roof
- Certified vent and actuator matched to the opening and controls
- Free area at the stair head — We check the free area the vent must provide before choosing a replacement.
- Controls and backup power — We confirm the controls, detection and backup power are being dealt with by a specialist.
From arrival to clean-up
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 smoke vent 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.
Planning and building rules in Scotland
In Scotland, smoke ventilation is covered by the domestic or non-domestic Technical Handbook, depending on the building. Vents must be certified products, keep the required free area, and be connected and commissioned by a smoke-control specialist. A building warrant is needed where the system is altered.
Details that speed up your 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 FK9 and we will come back with a quote or a survey date.
Common questions in Stirling
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 Stirling?
Yes. Fitters travel to addresses in Stirling and the surrounding districts, including FK9. 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.
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.
Send a few photos and your FK9 postcode, and we will put together a written quote for the job.
