Roof Lights

Roof lights are a very good source of natural light and their passive solar gain can help reduce energy costs. However they do deteriorate and without proper maintenance they can become stained, dirty and subject to water ingress. At Vertec we are able to offer a wide range of solutions from refurbishment of existing roof lights utilising products such as HD Sharman Delglaze through to replacement with the industry’s leading suppliers Kingspan, Brett Martin and Hambleside Danelaw. Whether installing roof lights in to new build projects or refurbishment works Vetec are able to offer products that take full account of thermal and acoustic requirements in addition to fire rating and structural performance. All of our works are carried out diligently by fully trained CSCS accredited operatives with health and safety being a priority due to the hazardous nature of these operations.
