Skylight cleaning and repairs

GRP (glass reinforced plastic) skylights need to be regularly cleaned in order to maintain their condition. If left for long periods of time, then the dirt, grime and algae build-up can reduce natural light, which can not only damage the fibreglass but also reduce the amount of natural light getting into your commercial space. 

Regular skylight cleaning can have a surprising effect on your business running costs, particularly electricity bills. In previous jobs, we have been able to increase the natural lighting levels so much that some of our clients were able to reduce the need for lighting in their commercial property during the summer months.

Specialist skylight cleaning 

Here at Locus Services, we are specialists when it comes to skylight cleaning. Our team of highly skilled and trained operatives are certified to work safely at heights and offer an efficient and effective service. 

Before we start any skylight cleaning, we will carry out a site survey which will enable us to advise you on any future works which may be required. Because of the height that skylight cleaning is carried out at, we can combine this with other works which may benefit your commercial property overall and reduce the need for more frequent skylight cleans, such as gutter cleaning and pressure washing for building exteriors, as well as identify any potential problems with your skylights which may need repairing. 

We are able to supply more in-depth and one-off skylight cleaning services, as well as more regular cleans. Our team can access the roof of your property using MEWPs and crawler boards, but for some projects, we may also install scaffolding.

Often, insurance audits that are carried out in factories and commercial spaces mean that keeping skylights clean is a necessity for various health and safety reasons and often, there are light levels that must be met. Here at Locus Services, we offer full skylight cleaning services, as well as maintenance and repairs, for business across the UK. 

We operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in order to minimise disruption to your business, especially if we need to reach hard to access areas. For more information, or to arrange a free site survey for your commercial premises, contact the Locus Services team today.

FAQs

  • Skylight cleaning is essential when it comes to overall business maintenance. Firstly we will loosen and remove any debris or dirt from the surface of the window. Then, we will use a brush cleaning or power washing technique, depending on the condition of the skylight. Our team of specialists are able to clean, repair or replace skylights and are fully compliant with high level roof access and safe working practices.

  • Not only do we offer full skylight cleaning services, but we are also able to repair and replace skylights, too. Skylights can deteriorate over time and if GRP (glass reinforced plastic) skylights are left untreated and are exposed to moisture, the fibres will start to break down, resulting in costly repairs and replacements. 

  • Whether you have glass or GRP skylights, we recommend that your skylights are cleaned regularly. Not only is it important to ensure that the skylight windows are clean and allow optimal light to filter through, but it also allows us to carry out maintenance checks to look for any signs of wear or damage. Our skylight cleaning services can also be combined with other building maintenance works which will benefit your commercial property, such as gutter cleaning or external building cleaning.

  • When we carry out skylight cleaning, we will need access to your external roof space to carry out cleaning and repairs. In order to access the skylights of the property, we use specialist equipment, for which we are fully qualified to use. To gain safe roof access for most jobs, we use mobile elevating platforms in order to get full access to the skylights of your commercial premises.

They had all necessary documentation and accreditations needed to carry out work for us and were able to provide this to me very quickly. The job needed to be completed within two days.
