Planning and building rules in England
English householder permitted development (Class C) normally covers rooflights that stand no more than 0.15 m proud of the roof plane and stay below the highest part of the roof. A rooflight on a side-facing slope must be obscure-glazed, and fixed shut unless the opening part is more than 1.7 m above the floor.
For English homes the energy rules ask for rooflights of 2.2 W/m²K or better and roof windows of 1.4 W/m²K (or WER Band B); most modern double glazed units meet both. Replacing a rooflight or roof window can be self-certified by an installer registered with an authorised competent person scheme; otherwise building control approval is needed.

Skylight questions: Sale
Is the survey in Sale free?
Yes for new installations. Repair visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we book.
Do you fit skylights and rooflights in Sale?
Yes. We survey and fit skylights and rooflights in Sale and across Greater Manchester. Send your postcode and we will offer a survey date when we reply.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Sale?
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 Sale?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
Fixed or opening?
Opening units suit kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms; fixed units are simpler and cheaper where the room already ventilates well.
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.
