Rooflight installers in Putney

Fitting jobs in Putney

Specialist fitting or a general builder

A general builder can frame an opening perfectly well. The trouble usually comes at the top of it. Rooflight makers specify a minimum upstand height above the finished roof, a minimum pitch on the glass, and particular fixings and packers. Miss one of those and the unit can hold water, leak at the corners, or put its product warranty at risk. A fitting specialist works to those figures and checks where each maker's instructions differ. That is the part of the job worth handing over.

Fitting in Putney and beyond

Need a rooflight fitted in Putney or close by? Districts SW15, SW6 and SW18 are covered, as are Wandsworth, Roehampton and Barnes. If you manage several properties across these places, we can quote them together and plan the fitting days so the route makes sense. Larger units or awkward access at any of them are planned for at quote stage, so the day itself runs to plan.

Planning and building rules in England

England's rules in short: permitted development usually covers a rooflight on a house roof provided it doesn't stick out more than 0.15 m or rise above the ridge, though a listed building always needs consent and some streets have Article 4 directions. Building regulations apply to new openings, and replacements go through building control; as we are not registered with a competent person scheme, we use a building notice and show the fee on the quote. The energy limit for rooflights in existing homes is 2.2 W/m²K, and the 2026 Approved Document L, in force from 24 March 2027, keeps that figure.

Questions about rooflight fitting in Putney

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.

Can you fit the rooflight I bought online?

Yes, fit-only is one of our core services. Send the product link or spec, photos of the roof and rough sizes, and we can usually price it from those. Before fitting we check the delivery for damage, which should be reported to the seller, plus the size against the builder's opening and the upstand height. The product warranty stays with the maker or seller, and our guarantee covers the fitting.

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.

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.
