Laminated roof and conservatory glass in Wrexham: what will it cost?
Budget £234 to £774 including VAT (£195 to £645 plus VAT) per pane for laminated roof and conservatory glass in Wrexham, supplied and fitted. Larger panes, thicker makeups and difficult access cost more; the price is fixed in writing after the survey.
Laminated roof glass is overhead glazing with a laminated inner pane, so if the glass is broken by impact, a falling branch or an intruder, the pieces stay bonded in place rather than dropping into the room below. It is the usual specification for roof lanterns, flat rooflights and glass conservatory roofs.
What you can specify
- Units for flat rooflights and walk-on surrounds where specified
- New seals, gaskets and caps refitted to keep the roof watertight
- Safe access with towers or scaffolding where needed
- Self-cleaning, solar control and blue or neutral tints
- Matching existing tints where possible
- Laminated inner pane for overhead safety

Getting the right glass for your building
Self-cleaning outer pane
A self-cleaning coating cuts how often the roof needs washing, which helps where access is awkward.
Repair or replace the roof
If the roof frame is failing or leaking at the bars, we will say so rather than putting new glass into it.
What the rules say in Wales
Safety glass in critical locations
In Wales, safety glazing is covered by Approved Document N (glazing) under the Welsh Building Regulations rather than Approved Document K. Glass in doors up to 1,500 mm above the floor, in panes within 300 mm of a door up to 1,500 mm, and in other glazing below 800 mm should be safety glass or protected. Laminated and toughened glass are the usual choices.
Planning permission
In Wales the local planning authority decides whether a new or altered shopfront needs planning permission. Replacing glass in an existing frame usually does not, because the outside of the building looks much the same. Bollards or barriers on the pavement need consent from the highway authority, normally the council.

Laminated roof and conservatory glass in Wrexham: questions
Do you cover Rhosllanerchrugog as well as Wrexham?
Yes. As well as Wrexham, we can arrange surveys in nearby Rhosllanerchrugog, Buckley and Hawarden. Dates depend on installer availability.
Why should roof glass be laminated?
So that if it breaks, the pieces stay in place overhead instead of falling into the room. A laminated inner pane is the usual specification for overhead glazing.
Can roof glass reduce heat in summer?
Yes. Solar control glass on the outer pane reflects much of the heat, and tints reduce glare.
Will laminated roof glass stop someone getting in?
It makes breaking through the roof slow and noisy, so the roof is a much harder way into a single-storey extension.
