Innovative Roof Terrace Access with Sliding Over Fixed Rooflights with Electric Opening Vent & Fixed Skylight which added natural light and ventilation.

Roof terrace more space to enjoy with family and friends

The Challenge

The homeowner wanted to make sympathetic improvements to the existing components of their London townhouse without losing the essence that made it a home. This included partial conversion of main roof into terrace with access, the addition of roof light and the enlargement of an existing roof light. But with such a stunning property, standard and ordinary just would not do.

The Solution

There were three components were we provided expert advise and unique glazing solutions. Firstly, they wanted to bring more light to an existing bathroom which was achieved with an opening electric vent rooflight, that allowed both light and additional ventilation to the space. Secondly was enlargement of the roof light to a single storey extension at lower ground floor level. Thirdly was the design and installation of a Sliding over fixed rooflight above the third floor staircase that provided access to a new flat roof terrace which replaced the original butterfly roof.

This now meant our client could maximise their property, create more space, and make a feature of their roof terrace where they could enjoy this vista with family and friends, capitalising on the views they and let light flood into the space below.

In our clients words:

We recently had the pleasure of working with Next Generation Rooflights on the design, manufacture and installation of a large bespoke mono pitch atrium rooflight. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The team demonstrated outstanding professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail throughout the entire process. The rooflight itself was perfectly tailored to our specifications and enhances the natural light in the space beautifully. The quality of the materials and craftsmanship is evident, and we have received numerous compliments on the stunning design. We were particularly impressed with the team's commitment to meeting our deadlines and their ability to navigate the complexities of the project with ease. Their communication was clear and consistent, ensuring that we were always informed and confident in the progress. Overall, we couldn't be happier with the result and highly recommend Next Generation Rooflights for any rooflight installations. Their dedication to excellence and customer satisfaction is truly commendable.

Communication is always swift and informative. All we really want in the rooflight world is, quick answers, good prices, great products, and delivery on time. They tick all these boxes.
