Rooflights for Ammanford homes and buildings
Looking for skylights in Ammanford? We handle survey, supply and fitting for homes and businesses across SA18 and nearby Pontardawe and Gorseinon.
Wales sees a lot of wind-driven rain, particularly in the west, so upstand height and flashing laps matter more than anywhere.
Ammanford is around 17 km from Llanelli, and we survey and fit throughout that part of Dyfed, including the SA18 district.

Planning and building rules in Wales
Planning rules in Wales are tighter than in England for rooflights: Class C rights do not apply in conservation areas, National Parks or AONBs, so a rooflight there needs planning permission. A side-facing rooflight within 10.5 m of the boundary must be obscure-glazed, and non-opening unless the opening part is more than 1.7 m above the floor.
In Wales the limiting values are 2.2 W/m²K for a rooflight and 1.4 W/m²K (or WER Band B) for a roof window in an existing house. Wales also has its own overheating rules (Part O) for new homes, in force since November 2022.

Skylight questions: Ammanford
Will I need planning permission in Ammanford?
Welsh householder permitted development (Class C) allows rooflights that project no more than 15 cm and sit no higher than the existing roof — but not in conservation areas, National Parks, AONBs or World Heritage Sites.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Ammanford?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
How do I book a survey in Ammanford?
Send your postcode and, if you can, a photo of the roof and the room. We offer a survey date when we reply.
Can you work alongside my builder in Ammanford?
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.
Fixed or opening?
Opening units suit kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms; fixed units are simpler and cheaper where the room already ventilates well.
