Flat rooflight installation in Hampshire

Across Hampshire we fit flat rooflights for homeowners, builders, roofers and commercial clients. The trade side matters: an extension company with jobs running in several of the 25 towns we list does not want to coordinate a different fitter for each. We can take the rooflight element of every site, fitted to the maker's instructions and left ready for the next trade. Domestic customers get the same fitting standard, quoted in writing before work begins.

Towns we list in Hampshire

Builders and roofers working in Hampshire can use us for the rooflight element of a job, wherever the site is in England. Homeowners can book us directly. In both cases the fitters come to the address, the work follows the maker's instructions, and a written quote fixes the price first. Fitting is carried out by vetted teams under S&K's direction.

What we do on the day

  • Reveal lined and trimmed inside, with the glass left clean
  • Upstand checked or built to the maker's internal and external sizes
  • Lifting gear or extra hands arranged for large and heavy panes
  • Fixed or opening — We ask whether you need ventilation before you settle on a fixed unit.
  • Ceiling and reveal depth — We measure the depth from the kerb top to the ceiling to plan the reveal.

Rules that apply in England

Replacing a rooflight in an English home is a controlled fitting: it has to be self-certified by a scheme-registered installer or notified to building control. We are not registered with a competent person scheme, so replacements we fit are notified with a building notice, and the new unit has to meet current energy limits. Adding a new one usually means a building regulations application, because joists or rafters are trimmed. On the planning side, most house rooflights are permitted development if they project 0.15 m or less; on a side slope the glass must be obscured and fixed unless the opening part is over 1.7 m above the floor.

Common questions in Hampshire

Do I need planning permission for a rooflight in Hampshire?

Often not. Many rooflights fall under permitted development, provided they do not project beyond the national limit and meet the other conditions that apply in England. Conservation areas, listed buildings and some flats are different and may need consent. Because the rules depend on the property, we confirm what is likely to apply at your address and point you to the planning authority where an application is needed.

Can you replace an old dome without redoing the whole roof?

Usually, yes. If the existing kerb is sound, level and tall enough, a new unit can often sit on it with a fresh seal to the roof covering. If the kerb is rotten or too low, we rebuild it and patch the covering around it rather than stripping the whole roof. This is checked at the survey and included in the written quote, so you know the full scope first.

What upstand height and roof pitch does flat rooflight fitting need?

It depends on the product. Manufacturers usually specify a minimum upstand height above the finished roof surface, and a minimum pitch on the glass so rain runs off. We follow the maker's figures for your unit rather than a rule of thumb. If your existing kerb or roof falls short, we explain the options, such as raising the upstand or choosing a unit with built-in pitch.
