Dome rooflight replacement in Weybridge

What the job costs in Weybridge

Guide ranges for supply & fit, per dome; building control notice fee extra on homes in England and Wales. 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 Weybridge we cover

Jobs across KT13, KT15 and TW17 are part of our normal cover for Weybridge. We are not an office on the high street. Our fitting teams come out to the property from wherever they are working that week. Neighbouring places such as Walton-on-Thames and Chertsey are covered on the same terms, so a house on the edge of town is no harder to book than one in the centre.

Already bought your unit?

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 dome 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.

Included in the work

• Membrane checked where it meets the kerb, with small repairs made
• Inside checked for drips and the trim refitted
• New multi-skin dome or glass unit fixed and sealed
• Upgrading to glass — We check whether the kerb suits a glass unit before recommending one.
• Fragile dome safety — We treat old domes as fragile at all times.

From arrival to clean-up

On the day, you need to be in at the start and at the end. In between, the fitters get on with it. They will want the room below cleared where possible, a parking spot if you have one, and somewhere to set the unit down safely. After checking the opening and the upstand or flashing, they fix a dome rooflight, seal it and finish the inside. Packaging and any old unit leave with them unless the quote says otherwise.

Planning and building rules in England

Two sets of rules matter in England. Planning: a rooflight on a house is normally permitted development if it projects no more than 0.15 m and stays below the highest part of the roof, but flats, listed buildings and Article 4 areas need checking. Building regulations: new openings need approval for the structure and energy performance, and a replacement is a controlled fitting. We are not registered with a competent person scheme, so we notify replacements to building control with a building notice and put the council's fee on the quote.

What to send for a quick quote

Each detail you send takes a question off our list. Photos inside and out show the opening and the ceiling. Rough measurements tell us the unit size. The roof covering tells us how it will be sealed in. Access notes tell us whether a tower or scaffold is needed. A product link, if you have one, lets us check it against the opening. Your postcode, KT13 or nearby, confirms travel.
