Sun tunnel installation in Renfrewshire & Inverclyde

A good share of sun tunnel installation in Renfrewshire & Inverclyde is replacement work. Older units go brittle or discoloured, sealed glass mists, and seals give up after years of sun and frost. Swapping the unit is often possible on the existing kerb, provided that kerb is sound, level and tall enough above the finished roof. Where it is not, we rebuild it. We cover the whole of Renfrewshire & Inverclyde, across 22 postcode districts, with fitters travelling to each address.

Towns we list in Renfrewshire & Inverclyde

From the larger towns to the smaller places in between, we take on rooflight fitting across Renfrewshire & Inverclyde. The process is the same for a terrace, a farmhouse extension or an industrial unit: details first, written quote second, fitting day third. Remote and island addresses in Scotland, where they arise, are covered by arrangement, and we tell you that before quoting.

What we do on the day

  • Tube insulated where it passes through a cold loft
  • Dome fixed and sealed on top of the flashing
  • Ceiling opening cut neatly and the diffuser fitted
  • Length and bends in the tube — We plan the shortest, straightest route we can between the roof and the ceiling.
  • Condensation in cold lofts — We insulate the tube where it passes through a cold loft.

Rules that apply in Scotland

If you live in Scotland, the key question is whether the job is new or a replacement. A new rooflight needs a building warrant. Swapping an old rooflight for a new one, frame included, doesn't, as long as the new unit meets the standards: the energy figure for new or replacement rooflights in alterations is 1.6 W/m²K. Conservation areas have no householder permitted development rights for roof alterations, and listed buildings need listed building consent.

Common questions in Renfrewshire & Inverclyde

Can you fit the sun tunnel I bought online?

Yes, fit-only is one of our core services. Send the product link or spec, photos of the roof and rough sizes, and we can usually price it from those. Before fitting we check the delivery for damage, which should be reported to the seller, plus the size against the opening, the flashing kit and the roof pitch. The product warranty stays with the maker or seller, and our guarantee covers the fitting.

How does payment work?

Payment terms are set out on your written quote before you accept it. Depending on the job, that may mean a deposit, stage payments for larger work, or payment on completion. The contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, part of the S&K Group. Nothing is added without your agreement: if something unexpected comes up, we discuss it and agree any change before carrying on.

Do you make good inside after fitting?

Yes, where the quote includes it. Internal finishing usually means lining the reveal with plasterboard, taping or skimming, and fitting trim where it meets the ceiling. Some people prefer their own plasterer or decorator to finish off, which is fine. The written quote spells out exactly where our work stops, so nobody is left guessing about who does what once the unit is in.
