Roof lantern installation around Bristol

Local survey and fitting for new or replacement roof lanterns within approximately 20 miles of Bristol.

TRADING SINCE 1994MADE TO MEASURENATIONWIDE DELIVERYLOCAL SURVEY & FITTING

Survey before manufacture

For fitted projects we inspect the proposed kerb, access, roof covering and internal working area before final dimensions are approved. The supporting structure must be suitable for the roof lantern and glazing loads.

Installation area

Our local survey and fitting service normally covers addresses within approximately 20 miles of Bristol. Projects outside this area are generally supplied for installation by the customer's builder or roofing contractor.

Planning the installation

Safe access, scaffolding where needed, weather protection and lifting of the glass must be considered. Electrical work for powered ventilation should be arranged with a qualified electrician.

Complete roof replacement

If the existing conservatory roof or supporting structure is unsuitable, approved installers may be able to provide a complete replacement roof rather than fitting a new lantern onto a failing structure.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

Who should install an aluminium roof lantern?

Installation should be completed by a competent person familiar with roof structures, weatherproofing and heavy glazing. The roof and kerb must be capable of supporting the system and glass.

Is scaffolding required?

That depends on roof height, access and the installation method. Safe edge protection, glass handling and lifting arrangements must be assessed before work begins.

Who connects a powered roof vent?

Electrical preparation and final connections should be undertaken by an appropriately qualified electrician in accordance with the vent instructions and applicable regulations.
