Property across Essex runs to 1930s semis, new-build estates and barn conversions — large bifold-plus-lantern rear extensions are the dominant project type — context that genuinely changes what we specify, from glazing coatings to frame colours and fixing details.
Frames are thermally broken aluminium, glazing is 28mm argon-filled with self-clean and solar options, and everything is made to measure. Buy supply-only with kerbside delivery, or have our fitters handle the lot under a written workmanship guarantee.
Standard sizes below — made to measure quoted same day. Installation available nationwide if you’d rather we fit it.

Standard ranges run past 3 metres on the long edge, and bespoke structural units go larger. Beyond certain spans glass thickness steps up — we'll spec it for the size and walk-on requirements.
Lanterns add height, presence and all-direction light — right for big kitchen-diners. Flat rooflights are quieter: flush, minimal, perfect for hallways, bathrooms, smaller rooms and strict modern aesthetics. Many projects use both.
A small one — 3 to 5 degrees of fall so water sheds rather than ponds. It's built into the kerb or the unit itself and is invisible from inside the room.
A structurally rated unit with thick laminated glass engineered for foot traffic — it turns a flat roof or terrace into usable floor while lighting the room below. Each one is load-calculated for its span.
