Conservation rooflight installation in Wednesfield

Guide prices in Wednesfield

Guide ranges for supply & fit. 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 control fees, where a job needs them, are shown as their own line.

Areas around Wednesfield we cover

Distance is rarely the deciding factor. A roof in Willenhall, 1 mile from Wednesfield, gets the same survey, the same written quote and the same fitting process as one in WV11, WV13 and WV1. What changes the price is the job itself: size of unit, roof type, access and lifting. Wolverhampton, around 2 miles out, is treated the same way.

Your conservation rooflights or ours

Supply and fit tends to suit people who would rather not pick a unit from a catalogue. We look at the roof, the opening and how you use the room, then put a conservation rooflight on the quote that fits all three. Fit-only suits people who already know what they want, or have one on site. We are happy with either. The difference is who stands behind what: on fit-only, the maker or retailer covers the product, and our workmanship guarantee covers the installation.

What the job includes

• Flashings in lead or a matching kit, dressed to the covering
• Inside lining fitted to suit the room's ceiling or exposed rafters
• Slates or tiles made good around the frame with tidy cuts
• Conservation area rules by nation — We check the permitted development position for your nation before the rooflight is ordered.
• Listed building consent — We confirm listed building consent is in place before fitting any rooflight on a listed building.

A typical installation day

Morning first: the team arrives, introduces itself and walks through the job with you. Dust sheets go down in the room below and along the route in. Then the opening and upstand, or the flashing on a pitched roof, are checked against the unit's measurements. A conservation rooflight goes in, is fixed to the maker's pattern and sealed into the roof covering. Inside, the reveal is finished as quoted. Before leaving, the team clears debris and talks you through what was done. Most jobs of this type take one day.

Planning and building rules in England

In England, a new rooflight opening generally needs building regulations approval because the roof structure is altered and the glazing must meet energy rules: 2.2 W/m²K for a rooflight in an existing home, or 1.4 W/m²K (or WER Band B) for a roof window. Planning is often not needed on a house: permitted development covers rooflights that stand no more than 0.15 m proud of the roof slope and sit below the highest part of the roof. Flats, listed buildings and areas with an Article 4 direction are different, so we check your address first.

Details that speed up your quote

Start with your phone. Take a picture of the roof where the unit goes or already sits, then one from inside looking up. Measure what you can, even roughly. Tell us what the roof is covered with and how a fitter would reach it: ladder, garden access or scaffold. Bought it already? Send the link or spec. Add your full postcode, for example in WV11, and we can price it.
