Where rooflight jobs go wrong

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 and places we cover

Our fitters cover all of Bangor, including LL59, LL57 and LL58, and travel on to Caernarfon, Llandudno and Colwyn Bay on the same basis. Nobody needs to visit us, because we come to the property for surveys and fitting. Dates are offered according to fitter availability, and travel is part of the written quote rather than an extra.

Planning and building control

Welsh rules differ from England's in one important way: rooflights lose permitted development rights in conservation areas, National Parks, AONBs and World Heritage Sites. Elsewhere on a house, a rooflight that projects no more than 150 mm and stays below the highest part of the roof is usually fine. Building regulations still apply to new openings, replacements we fit go through a building notice because we are not scheme-registered, and the energy limit for rooflights is 2.2 W/m²K. A new Welsh Approved Document L takes effect on 4 March 2027.

Questions about rooflight fitting in Bangor

Will my new rooflight leak?

A correctly fitted unit should not. Leaks usually trace back to the detail around the frame: an upstand that is too low, a membrane or flashing that is not dressed properly, sealant applied to a damp surface, or water ponding against the kerb. We fit to the maker's instructions and check each of those points. The fitting carries a written workmanship guarantee, with its terms set out on your quote.

Do you cover Bangor?

Yes. Fitters travel to addresses in Bangor and the surrounding districts, including LL59. We do not run an office there; the survey and the fitting happen at your property. A few island and remote postcodes are covered by arrangement; if yours is one, we confirm travel and dates before quoting.

Do you make good inside after fitting?

Yes, where the quote includes it. Internal finishing usually means lining the reveal with plasterboard, taping or skimming, and fitting trim where it meets the ceiling. Some people prefer their own plasterer or decorator to finish off, which is fine. The written quote spells out exactly where our work stops, so nobody is left guessing about who does what once the unit is in.

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.
