Glazed area calculations

Many people like to have as much glazing as they can incorporate within their extensions. This causes a conflict with the guidance in the building regulations L1B which allows up to 25% of the floor area of the extension, with any existing covered openings to be discounted. However, problems often occur when the glazed area exceeds these guidelines.

We have qualified staff who can carry out glazed area calculations and building regulations guidance to ensure that your scheme is compliant.
