For any reliable installer, ensuring that light is made great use of should always be a top priority when undertaking a home improvement project unless the client/customer specifies otherwise. Thankfully, the industry continues to innovate and develop products that expertly balance opaque style elements (i.e. profiles, door panels, roof tiles) while still let an abundance of natural light shine through.
To give readers a bit of a refresh in terms of the most popular glazing products that increase natural light, we thought we’d explore some of the most effective and intuitive methods. From simple yet elegant glass conservatory roofs to subtle skylights, be sure to never leave any of the following products out of your portfolio.
Flat or Pitched, Skylights never disappoint
An intricate design readily capable of being fitted onto any new or existing flat roof, skylights whether they be pitched, flat, or pyramid in style are a great way of letting in light from various angles. They are particularly ideal for areas of the home that typically feel dark due to surrounding solid wall construction, so with clean lines and optional self-cleaning glass technology, they act as a low-maintenance and hassle-free addition.
In an age where the energy conscious consumer does their best to reduce heating bills, you’ll be able to rest easy knowing that modern skylights utilise high-quality glass to offer extra warmth as well as an abundance of light. Despite opening properties up to the outside using pitched and/or flat glass fittings, there’s never a need to compromise on comfort when illuminating a space.
Glass roofs, roof vents, and other glazing workarounds
While skylights are ideal in terms of their flexible approach to installation, other popular glazing products which excel at letting the light flow through are undeniably glass roofs and roof vents. The latter obviously serves to enhance extended areas of the home that otherwise make use of a solid tiled roof system either for stylistic or privacy purposes. A far cry from the polycarbonate roofs of yesteryear, modern glass roofs equally make the most of light too.
Assuring that a property’s existing windows and doors feature sleek and clean lines is another inventive workaround to introducing more light when altering the roof isn’t possible, and a mixture of the two means darkness need never plague the home again. Choosing to blend methods old and new means being able to cater for all customer preferences and occasions, either way – a little light will always be shed on the situation.
