Frameless rooflight installation in Bordon

Guide prices in Bordon

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.

Areas around Bordon we cover

Jobs across GU35, GU30 and GU33 are part of our normal cover for Bordon. 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 Alton and Haslemere are covered on the same terms, so a house on the edge of town is no harder to book than one in the centre.

What we check on a supplied 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 frameless 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

• Kerb squared across the diagonals before the glass is ordered or fitted
• Roof covering turned up and finished under the glass overhang
• Fall set in the upstand so rain clears the oversailing glass edge
• Drainage at the overhang — We check how water leaves the glass where it oversails the kerb.
• Glass weight and access — We plan the lift for a frameless pane before the delivery is booked.

A typical installation day

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 frameless 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 Bordon 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.

Getting a price from photos

For fit-only work, the product details matter most: the link, the spec sheet, or a photo of the label on the box. Alongside that, send pictures of the roof and the ceiling below, approximate opening sizes, the type of roof covering, and how someone would get onto the roof. For supply and fit, the same photos and sizes do the job. Finish with your postcode, such as GU35.
