Fitting jobs in Evesham

Specialist fitting or a general builder

Water has to go somewhere. Around a rooflight, the roof falls should carry it away from the kerb, not towards it. The glass itself needs enough pitch to shed rain and stop dirt settling. Condensation needs a path out of the frame. Get any of this wrong and the result is ponding, staining or drips months later. A specialist fitter checks these details as a matter of course, because they are the difference between a rooflight that works and one that turns into a repair job.

Postcodes and places we cover

Need a rooflight fitted in Evesham or close by? Districts WR11, WR12 and WR10 are covered, as are Tewkesbury, Stratford-upon-Avon and Worcester. 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 Evesham

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.

Do you need scaffolding to fit a rooflight?

Not always. Single-storey roofs can often be reached safely with ladders, a tower or edge protection. Higher roofs, steep pitches and large units usually need scaffold or a mobile platform, and heavy glass may need a crane. We assess access from your photos or at the survey, and any scaffold or lifting cost is shown as its own line on the written 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.

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.
