Phased replacement across a building, priced from a survey
Guide ranges for supply & fit, per unit; site set-up priced separately. Your price is fixed in a written quote after we have seen photos or surveyed. Scaffold, access towers or a crane are priced separately if the job needs them, and building warrant fees, where a job needs them, are shown as their own line.
Towns we list in Ayrshire
From the larger towns to the smaller places in between, we take on rooflight fitting across Ayrshire. The process is the same for a terrace, a farmhouse extension or an industrial unit: details first, written quote second, fitting day third. Remote and island addresses in Scotland, where they arise, are covered by arrangement, and we tell you that before quoting.
Arran and Cumbrae are covered by arrangement, with ferry and travel costs priced into the quote before you commit.

Rules that apply in Scotland
Rooflight work on non-domestic buildings and blocks of flats in Scotland is covered by the domestic or non-domestic Technical Handbook, depending on the building: a building warrant for new openings, energy limits for the glazing and fire checks near boundaries. Replacements complete with frames have their own rules. We set out what applies before work starts.
Common questions in Ayrshire
Does a rooflight need a building warrant?
In Scotland a new rooflight needs a building warrant from the council before work starts. Replacing a rooflight complete with its frame doesn't need a warrant, but the new unit must meet the building standards in full, including 1.6 W/m²K. We confirm which applies to your job before you commit.
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.
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.
