Flat rooflight installation in Walton-on-Thames

Guide prices in Walton-on-Thames

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.

Is your address covered?

Our fitters come to you. For Walton-on-Thames that covers KT12, TW17 and TW16, plus nearby Sunbury-on-Thames and West Molesey. We do not keep a yard or showroom in the area, and you do not need to visit one. The survey happens at your property or, for fit-only work, from the photos you send. Dates follow fitter availability, which we confirm when you accept the quote.

What we check on a supplied unit

Which works out better, buying your own or letting us supply? It depends on what you value. Buying your own gives you control of the product and what you pay for it. Letting us supply puts the whole job, unit and fitting, under one written quote. On a customer-supplied unit we still measure it against the opening, look at the upstand, and inspect the condition it arrived in. Warranty on the product sits with whoever sold it, while the fitting carries our own guarantee.

What we do on the day

• Unit bedded on the specified sealant or tape and screw-fixed
• Product paperwork handed over and warranty registration explained
• Reveal lined and trimmed inside, with the glass left clean
• Solar gain on south-facing roofs — We ask which way the roof faces and how the room is used before suggesting glass.
• Ceiling and reveal depth — We measure the depth from the kerb top to the ceiling to plan the reveal.

Fitting your flat rooflight, step by step

Fitting days start with a look at the sky. If rain is due, the order of work changes so the roof is never left open to it. A typical day for a flat rooflight runs like this: set up access, protect the room, open up the roof or prepare the existing kerb or frame, check sizes, fix, seal, then finish inside. On jobs that take more than a day, the opening is weather-sealed overnight. The last hour goes on tidying, waste removal and a walk-round with you.

Regulations for Walton-on-Thames properties

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

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, KT12 or nearby, confirms travel.
