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.

Glass conservatory roofs

Questions we will ask at the survey

Access

Most lanterns can be reached from a tower or ladder system. High or steep roofs may need scaffolding, which is itemised in your written quote.

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.

Building regulations and safety in England

England

Listed buildings and conservation areas

In England, listed building consent from the council may be needed to replace historic glass such as crown or cylinder glass, or to alter glazing bars, sashes and frames. Historic England publishes guidance on traditional windows. Secondary glazing and window film are often easier to agree because they can be removed later, but the council's conservation officer makes the decision.

Safety glass in critical locations

In England, section 5 of Approved Document K treats glazing in doors and in side panels within 300 mm of a door edge, from floor level up to 1,500 mm, and any other glazing below 800 mm, as a critical location. Glass there should break safely, be robust, or be guarded. Laminated or toughened glass meeting BS EN 12600 class 3 is the usual answer, rising to class 2 for door and side-panel panes wider than 900 mm.

Laminated roof and conservatory glass in Bow: questions

Do you cover Stratford as well as Bow?

Yes. As well as Bow, we can arrange surveys in nearby Stratford, Canary Wharf and Canning Town. 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 you change my conservatory roof from plastic to glass?

Replacing polycarbonate with glass adds a lot of weight and is a structural change, so it is not part of this service. We can advise once a structural plan is in place.

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.
