Concrete hob / custom skylight

Concrete roofs sit outside the standard range, so the glass, the hob and the waterproofing are detailed together. This is where a builder's approach matters more than a product catalogue.

How to recognise it

Does this sound like your place?

Concrete roof or slab above the room
A raised concrete upstand or hob
Larger, squarer openings
Often architect-designed homes and rooftop terraces

What we handle

From the roof through to the finished ceiling.

Custom glass supply to the opening
Hob interface and setting out
Waterproofing and weatherproofing detail
Coordination with the roof and internal finishes
Finishing to the ceiling or soffit below

Suitable options

This one is put together for the project.

Custom work is designed around the opening, the structure and the finish you are after, rather than selected from a standard range.

Custom glass skylights, glass roof windows, operable glazing, skylights on concrete hobs and non-standard sizes. If a standard range does not make it, it is built for the project, supply, structure, roof and finishing handled by one team.

Indicative range

Where this kind of project usually sits.

Indicative range to be confirmed

We publish an indicative range for this kind of installation once it has been confirmed by the team. In the meantime, send through two photos and we will come back to you with a figure for your project, custom supply and install, range depends on glass size and access.

Installed with a builder's eye for detail.

We are not simply cutting a hole in a roof and installing a window. We consider structure, roof integration, waterproofing, ceiling finishes, plasterwork, natural light, overall appearance and how the work will read in years to come.

Standard solution or completely custom.

Custom glass skylights, glass roof windows, operable glazing, skylights on concrete hobs, bespoke configurations and non-standard sizes, for applications outside a standard product range.
