Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
Fire-rated glass floors and horizontal rooflights are specialist systems with limited sizes and tested frames. We supply and install them where the evidence matches your span, load and rating, and coordinate the structural support with your engineer.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Bracknell budgets are not open-ended.
If an existing frame in a Bracknell building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Bracknell, including the RG12, RG42 districts, and in nearby Crowthorne, Wokingham, Sandhurst. Bracknell is about 16 km from Reading, the largest town in our Berkshire coverage.
