Commercial Skylight Installation in Stroud

Stroud wears its working past on its sleeve — the old textile mills along the valleys now house studios, makers, offices and small manufacturers, alongside the modern units around the town and out towards Stonehouse. These buildings often have deep floors and big roofs, which makes daylight from above the natural answer. As skylight specialists serving the Five Valleys, we install rooflights and roof glazing that brighten a commercial space and bring its running costs down.

Why daylight pays in a Stroud workspace

For a working building, a rooflight is a hard-headed choice. Daylight from above keeps the lights off for longer, trimming the electricity bill, and a brighter space is plainly better to work in — vital for a studio, a maker’s workshop or a design office where good light is part of the job. In a deep converted mill, where windows are limited to the outer walls, roof glazing is often the only way to light the centre of the floor.

The spaces we light

• Converted mills & workshops — roof glazing for the studios and makers of the valleys.
• Offices & co-working spaces — rooflights over open-plan floors to cut artificial lighting.
• Retail, cafes & galleries — daylight that shows products and work at their best.
• Trade & light-industrial units — brighter, safer floors around Stroud and Stonehouse.

Around the way you work

We schedule commercial installations to suit your operation — out of hours or in agreed phases so you do not lose a working day — with access and programme settled before we start. We protect the area below, keep the roof watertight throughout, and tidy up properly. See our commercial skylight installation hub page for how we approach access and larger programmes.

Right for the roof — old or new

Stroud’s commercial roofs run from modern flat membranes to the older, often steeper roofs of converted mills. Because rooflights are all we install, we get the upstand, falls and flashing right for each, and we check a building’s conservation or listed status — common with the older mills — before recommending anything. We specify glazing to meet Part L with solar-control coatings where needed, and fit safety glass where required. Every installation carries our written guarantee on our workmanship.

New install or replacement

We fit roof glazing into new commercial builds and extensions, and we replace tired or leaking rooflights on the town’s older buildings — a frequent job on mill conversions. We focus on installs and full replacements, not patch repairs, so the result lasts. To see the area we cover and our residential work, visit our Stroud skylight installation page.

Indicative cost

Cost depends on the number and size of units, the roof type, access and glazing, so we give a fixed written quote after a survey. As an indicative 2026 guide:

• Single commercial rooflight (supplied & fitted): from approximately £1,400–£3,500
• Run or grid of rooflights: priced per project after survey
• Roof access / height work: itemised separately and clearly

These are indicative ranges only — your real price is a fixed written quote after a survey. Roof type, access, conservation requirements and glazing upgrades affect the figure, and we set it all out before any work starts.
