Skylights and rooflights in Newtownards
We survey, supply and fit skylights and rooflights in Newtownards and the BT22 district — flat rooflights, roof lanterns, roof windows, walk-on glass, sun tunnels and commercial rooflights.
Bungalows are widespread in Northern Ireland, and sun tunnels or roof windows are an easy way to brighten internal hallways.
We work across County Down, including Newtownards, and in neighbouring towns such as Bangor, County Down and Castlereagh. Access, parking and how the glass reaches the roof are all checked at the survey.

Planning and building rules in Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland's householder permitted development allows rooflights within limits — no more than 15 cm projection on road-facing slopes and a 0.5 m margin from ridge, eaves and party walls. Listed buildings also need listed building consent from the council.
Technical Booklet F1 (2022) asks for replacement windows and rooflights in existing homes to reach WER Band C or a U-value of 1.6 W/m²K, assessed in the vertical position. Extensions follow a 25% glazing allowance in Technical Booklet F1.

Skylight questions: Newtownards
Do you fit skylights and rooflights in Newtownards?
Yes. We survey and fit skylights and rooflights in Newtownards and across County Down. Send your postcode and we will offer a survey date when we reply.
Is the survey in Newtownards free?
Yes for new installations. Repair visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we book.
Will I need planning permission in Newtownards?
Most rooflights on houses in Northern Ireland are permitted development under Class B, but not in a conservation area or on a listed building's curtilage.
Can you work alongside my builder in Newtownards?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
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 a skylight be fitted into an existing flat roof?
Yes. We form the opening, trim joists, build an insulated upstand, re-waterproof and make good the ceiling.
