Skylights and rooflights in Reading
From flat-roof extensions to period slate roofs, we fit the right rooflight for the building in Reading — after a survey, with a fixed written price.
Period cottages and conservation-area streets are common in the South East, so slim conservation rooflights are often the right choice.
Reading is the main town we list in Berkshire; we also cover nearby Earley and Henley-on-Thames.

Planning and building rules in England
English householder permitted development (Class C) normally covers rooflights that stand no more than 0.15 m proud of the roof plane and stay below the highest part of the roof. A rooflight on a side-facing slope must be obscure-glazed, and fixed shut unless the opening part is more than 1.7 m above the floor.
For English homes the energy rules ask for rooflights of 2.2 W/m²K or better and roof windows of 1.4 W/m²K (or WER Band B); most modern double glazed units meet both. Replacing a rooflight or roof window can be self-certified by an installer registered with an authorised competent person scheme; otherwise building control approval is needed.
