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?
Jobs across BT32, BT25 and BT31 are part of our normal cover for Banbridge. 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 Craigavon and Portadown 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
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.
Included in the work
- Window frame fixed on its brackets, square and at the right height
- Tiles or slates cut and refitted neatly around the flashing
- Flashing kit matched to tiles, slates or a recessed fit
- Side slopes and neighbours — We check which slope the window is going on before you commit.
- Head height and view — We think about how the window will be used from inside before fixing its height.
What happens on the day
Arrive and agree the plan. Sheet the floor and furniture. Set up the ladder, tower or scaffold. Check the opening, the upstand or flashing, and the unit against the paperwork. Fix and pack a pitched roof window level. Seal it into the roof. Line the reveal or fit the ceiling trim. Clean the glass, clear the waste, and talk you through it. That is the shape of most fitting days, and for this type of job it usually takes one day.
Regulations for Banbridge properties
For a home in Northern Ireland, check planning first: rooflights are excluded from permitted development in conservation areas and within the curtilage of listed buildings, and elsewhere must keep 0.5 m clear of the ridge, eaves and verges. Then building control: a new opening alters the roof structure, so expect a building control application and confirm with your council, and the glazing must achieve WER Band C or 1.6 W/m²K. We check both for your address before quoting.
What to send for a quick 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, BT32 or a neighbouring district.
Common questions in Banbridge
How long does fitting take?
Fitting a pitched roof window into an existing, correctly sized opening is often a day's work. New openings take longer, because joists or rafters need trimming, an upstand or flashing has to be built or fitted, and the inside needs finishing. Large units that need lifting gear, and days lost to rain, can stretch things further. Your written quote gives a realistic estimate for your roof.
Do you cover Banbridge?
Yes. Fitters travel to addresses in Banbridge and the surrounding districts, including BT32. We do not run an office there; the survey and the fitting happen at your property. A few island and remote postcodes are covered by arrangement; if yours is one, we confirm travel and dates before quoting.
Will my new pitched roof window leak?
A correctly fitted unit should not. Leaks usually trace back to the detail around the frame: an upstand that is too low, a membrane or flashing that is not dressed properly, sealant applied to a damp surface, or water ponding against the kerb. We fit to the maker's instructions and check each of those points. The fitting carries a written workmanship guarantee, with its terms set out on your quote.
Got a unit waiting to go in, or need one sourced? Either way, start with your Banbridge address and a couple of photos.
