Rooflights for Carnoustie homes and buildings
From flat-roof extensions to period slate roofs, we fit the right rooflight for the building in Carnoustie — after a survey, with a fixed written price.
Scottish weather is hard on roofs, so we specify rooflights and roof windows with exposure in mind and fit upstands with generous heights.
We work across Dundee and Angus, including Carnoustie, and in neighbouring towns such as Arbroath and Dundee. Access, parking and how the glass reaches the roof are all checked at the survey.

Planning and building rules in Scotland
Planning rules in Scotland differ: rooflights are treated as external alterations under Class 2B, with no permitted development in conservation areas. Listed buildings need listed building consent where the work affects their character.
Under the Scottish building standards, replacement rooflights should average 1.6 W/m²K or better, and no individual unit should exceed 3.3 W/m²K. Replacing a rooflight, frame included, does not need a building warrant, but the work must still meet the building standards.

Skylight questions: Carnoustie
How do I book a survey in Carnoustie?
Send your postcode and, if you can, a photo of the roof and the room. We offer a survey date when we reply.
Do you fit skylights and rooflights in Carnoustie?
Yes. We survey and fit skylights and rooflights in Carnoustie and across Dundee and Angus. Send your postcode and we will offer a survey date when we reply.
Will I need planning permission in Carnoustie?
Scottish householder permitted development (Class 2B, other external alterations) can cover a rooflight that projects no more than 1 metre from the roof, but the right does not apply in conservation areas.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Carnoustie?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
Fixed or opening?
Opening units suit kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms; fixed units are simpler and cheaper where the room already ventilates well.
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.
