Towns we list in County Fermanagh
Fitting across County Fermanagh means planning routes, access and lifting as well as the roof itself. Narrow lanes, shared driveways and town-centre parking restrictions all affect how a large unit is delivered and raised to roof level. We ask about these early so the quote reflects them. That approach is the same everywhere we work in Northern Ireland, from single domestic jobs to multi-unit commercial sites.
Included in the work
- Lifting gear or extra hands arranged for large and heavy panes
- Upstand checked or built to the maker's internal and external sizes
- Unit bedded on the specified sealant or tape and screw-fixed
- Pitch of the glass — We make sure the glass will sit at the pitch its maker asks for.
- Solar gain on south-facing roofs — We ask which way the roof faces and how the room is used before suggesting glass.
Rules that apply in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, the energy standard for a new or replacement rooflight or roof window in an existing home is WER Band C or a U-value of 1.6 W/m²K, under Technical Booklet F1. Cutting a new opening alters the roof structure, so a building control application is expected; confirm with the council's building control team. Planning permitted development covers many rooflights on houses if they stay below the ridge, project no more than 15 cm on a road-facing slope and sit at least 0.5 m from the ridge, eaves and verges.
Common questions in County Fermanagh
Does a rooflight need building control approval?
In Northern Ireland a new opening alters the roof structure, so expect a building control application; confirm the position with your council, including for replacements. The new rooflight must meet WER Band C or 1.6 W/m²K. We confirm what applies before you commit.
What if my roof opening is the wrong size for the flat rooflight?
We find out before the fitting day, not on it. If the opening is slightly out, it can usually be adjusted by trimming or by packing out the upstand. If it is a long way off, the choice is between altering the opening and changing the unit. Bear in mind that rooflights are often sold by builder's opening size rather than external size, so check which one your measurement refers to.
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.
