Skylights and rooflights in Carrickfergus
We survey, supply and fit skylights and rooflights in Carrickfergus and the BT38 district — flat rooflights, roof lanterns, roof windows, walk-on glass, sun tunnels and commercial rooflights.
Many Northern Irish homes have later flat-roofed kitchen extensions where an old dome can be swapped for glass.
Carrickfergus sits about 9 km from Newtownabbey and 11 km from Bangor, County Down, and we cover the whole BT38 postcode district and the roads in between.

Planning and building rules in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, roof alterations come under Class B of the 2015 order: a rooflight facing a road must not project more than 15 cm and must sit at least 0.5 m from the ridge, eaves, verge and party wall. A side-facing window within 15 m of a neighbouring boundary must be obscure-glazed, and non-opening unless the opening part is more than 1.7 m above the floor.
For homes in Northern Ireland, Technical Booklet F1 sets 1.6 W/m²K (or WER Band C) for replacement glazing including rooflights. New dwellings must average 1.40 W/m²K across windows, roof windows and rooflights.

Skylight questions: Carrickfergus
How do I book a survey in Carrickfergus?
Send your postcode and, if you can, a photo of the roof and the room. We offer a survey date when we reply.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Carrickfergus?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
Can you work alongside my builder in Carrickfergus?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
Is the survey in Carrickfergus free?
Yes for new installations. Repair visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we book.
Do you take a deposit?
Nothing is paid until you accept a written quote. Made-to-measure products are ordered after you accept, we tell you in writing when the order is placed, and the quote states the payment stages.
Can I cancel?
Made-to-measure products are excluded from the statutory 14-day cancellation right, but you can cancel without charge until we place the order with the manufacturer. Our terms explain the rest.
