VELUX & Skylight Window Installers

VELUX offers a range of roof windows for pitched and flat roofs, along with accessories such as blinds, shutters and remote controls. Roof windows are available in different sizes, opening styles and finishes and can help bring natural light and ventilation into lofts and other rooms.

Different VELUX roof windows are suitable for different roof pitches. Standard centre-pivot models are generally suitable for pitches from 15°-90°, while manual top-hung models are typically suitable for pitches from 15°-55°. Always check the specification of the particular window and flashing system before installation.

Maintenance requirements will depend on the window finish and model. Air filters can be removed and cleaned, while leaves and other debris should be cleared from around the flashing periodically to allow rainwater to drain freely. Follow the manufacturer's maintenance instructions for the particular roof window installed.

Fitting VELUX Windows

Installing a roof window involves cutting into the roof covering and structure, fitting the window and flashing, and making the opening weatherproof. For this reason, many homeowners choose to hire a roofer, carpenter or roof window installer rather than carry out the work themselves.

When choosing an installer, ask whether they regularly fit the type of roof window you have selected and request examples of previous installations. You can also check whether they belong to a relevant trade organisation, such as the Federation of Master Builders, where applicable.

Membership of a trade organisation does not guarantee the standard of the work, so compare several written quotes and check customer feedback, insurance and what is included in the installation price.

VELUX Window Installation Cost

As a rough guide, fitting a mid-sized roof window into a traditional slate or tiled roof may cost around £950. This may include the window, flashing, timber and labour, although the final price will depend on the roof, access and any internal finishing work required.
