Dome rooflight replacement in Bloxwich

Bloxwich guide prices

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.

Covering WS3 and neighbouring districts

Jobs across WS3, WV12 and WS2 are part of our normal cover for Bloxwich. 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 Walsall and Great Wyrley 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?

A damaged delivery is a frequent snag on fit-only work. Before the day, unpack a dome rooflight, photograph it, and tell the seller about any cracks or scuffs, because claims are much easier made early. We will also ask for the model or a link, so we can read the maker's instructions and check the builder's opening size and the upstand height it expects. If everything lines up, we fit it. If not, we explain what needs changing first.

On the day, we cover

• Kerb checked for rot, size and height before the new unit goes on
• Inside checked for drips and the trim refitted
• New multi-skin dome or glass unit fixed and sealed
• Is the kerb sound? — We check each kerb for rot and movement before quoting a dome swap.
• Kerb size and adaptors — We measure every kerb against the new dome's sizes.

A typical installation day

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.

Do you need permission in Bloxwich?

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.

Details that speed up your quote

A fast quote needs five things: a photo of the roof from outside, one from the room below, rough sizes of the opening or the space, the roof covering (felt, single-ply, fibreglass, tiles, slate or metal), and a note on access. If you have already bought the unit, add the product link or spec sheet. And give us the postcode, WS3 or a neighbouring district.
