Rooflights for Cheltenham homes and buildings
We survey, supply and fit skylights and rooflights in Cheltenham and the GL50 district — flat rooflights, roof lanterns, roof windows, walk-on glass, sun tunnels and commercial rooflights.
Western coasts take wind-driven rain, so we pay close attention to upstand height and flashing laps on exposed roofs.
Neighbouring towns include Tewkesbury (12 km) and Gloucester (12 km). We offer a survey date when we reply to your enquiry.

Planning and building rules in England
In England a rooflight on a house is usually permitted development under Class C if it projects no more than 150 mm beyond the roof slope and sits no higher than the ridge. Listed buildings need listed building consent, flats have no householder permitted development rights, and an Article 4 direction can remove the rights in some conservation areas.
Under Approved Document L, a rooflight added to an English home must achieve at least 2.2 W/m²K (horizontal plane), and a roof window 1.4 W/m²K or Window Energy Rating Band B. In an extension, glazing including rooflights is normally limited to 25% of the new floor area plus any windows or doors the extension covers, unless a whole-house calculation shows otherwise.
