Rooflights fitted properly. Ours or yours.

Yes. Fit-only is a big part of what we do. Send the product link or spec sheet, photos of the roof and inside, and the size of the opening. We check the delivery and the opening before fitting it to the maker's instructions. The product warranty stays with the maker or seller; our written guarantee covers the fitting.

Fitting a customer-supplied flat rooflight onto a ready upstand is usually the cheapest job; supply & fit, replacements and new openings cost more because of the product, the structure or the roof work involved. Our guide prices page and the guide price tool show the ranges, and the written quote fixes the price.

Often not. Rooflights on most houses can fall under permitted development if they don't stick out too far from the roof slope and aren't higher than the highest part of the roof, but the limits differ between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, and conservation areas and listed buildings have tighter rules. We confirm what applies to your address.

A new opening usually does, because the roof structure is altered and the new glazing has to meet energy rules. Replacing a rooflight still has to go through building control in England and Wales: either a scheme-registered installer self-certifies it or a building notice is given. We are not registered with a competent person scheme, so replacements we fit go through a building notice, and the fee is on your quote. Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own rules, which we confirm for your address.

A straightforward fit-only or replacement job is usually done in a day or less. A new opening in an existing roof, with structure, upstand, roofing and internal reveals, typically takes two to three days. Big lanterns, walk-on units and sliding rooflights can need longer and lifting gear.

Usually, yes. If the existing kerb is sound and the right size, a modern glass rooflight can go straight onto it with the membrane made good around it. If the kerb is rotten or too low, we build a new upstand and patch the roof covering around it, which is still far less than a new roof.

Fitting teams cover England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland and travel to the address. Island and remote mainland postcodes, such as Shetland, Orkney, the Western Isles, the Isles of Scilly and parts of the Highlands, are covered by arrangement, with travel priced into the quote.

Yes. We fit rooflights, lanterns and roof windows as a subcontractor for builders, roofers and extension companies, priced per unit or by the day. You prepare the opening and upstand to the maker's sizes, or we can build the upstand for you.
