Rooflight installers in Manor Park

Fitting jobs in Manor Park

Specialist fitting or a general builder

Builders run many trades at once, and the rooflight often gets squeezed in between the roofer and the plasterer. That is when corners get cut: an upstand built a little low, sealant applied in damp conditions, a reveal left rough. Bringing in a fitting specialist for that one stage means someone is focused on it alone, following the maker's instructions, with time set aside to finish the inside properly. The builder keeps control of the programme, and the rooflight gets proper attention.

Postcodes E12, E7 and IG1 are the core of our Manor Park coverage, but they are not the boundary. Addresses in Ilford, West Ham and Barking are handled in just the same way, with fitters travelling to each one and travel costs built into the quote before you agree to anything. If you are unsure which side of a boundary you fall on, the full postcode settles it.

Planning and building control

Two sets of rules matter in England. Planning: a rooflight on a house is normally permitted development if it projects no more than 0.15 m and stays below the highest part of the roof, but flats, listed buildings and Article 4 areas need checking. Building regulations: new openings need approval for the structure and energy performance, and a replacement is a controlled fitting. We are not registered with a competent person scheme, so we notify replacements to building control with a building notice and put the council's fee on the quote.

Questions about rooflight fitting in Manor Park

Does a rooflight need building regulations approval?

A new opening usually needs building regulations approval. A replacement is a controlled fitting: it must be self-certified by an installer registered with a competent person scheme or notified to building control. We are not registered with a scheme, so replacements we fit are notified to building control with a building notice, and the council's fee is shown on your quote.

Do you offer trade rates for builders and roofers?

We carry out subcontract fitting for builders, roofers, extension companies and commercial contractors. Pricing is per job or per schedule of units, agreed in writing before we start. We can work to your programme, fit on your upstand or build our own, and leave the opening ready for the next trade. Send drawings or a unit schedule and we will come back with a trade quote.

How does payment work?

Payment terms are set out on your written quote before you accept it. Depending on the job, that may mean a deposit, stage payments for larger work, or payment on completion. The contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, part of the S&K Group. Nothing is added without your agreement: if something unexpected comes up, we discuss it and agree any change before carrying on.

Can you remove and dispose of the old rooflight?

Yes. Taking out the old unit is part of any replacement job, and it leaves with the rest of the waste unless you ask to keep it. Old domes, glass and frames go through proper waste routes. If removal turns up a rotten kerb or damaged decking, we show you what we have found and agree the repair with you before going any further.
