Rooflights for Ross-on-Wye homes and buildings
We survey, supply and fit skylights and rooflights in Ross-on-Wye and the HR9 district — flat rooflights, roof lanterns, roof windows, walk-on glass, sun tunnels and commercial rooflights.
Midlands housing is a mix of Victorian terraces, inter-war semis and newer estates, and rear kitchen extensions with flat rooflights are a common upgrade.
From Ross-on-Wye to Ledbury, Hereford and Gloucester, the same survey-first process applies: measure, specify, fix the price, then fit.

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.
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. The Future Homes and Buildings Standards, published in March 2026, apply from 24 March 2027 and keep the 2.2 W/m²K limit for rooflights.

Skylight questions: Ross-on-Wye
Is the survey in Ross-on-Wye free?
Yes for new installations. Repair visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we book.
Will I need planning permission in Ross-on-Wye?
Most rooflights on English houses do not need planning permission, provided they keep within 150 mm of the roof surface and below the ridge line.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Ross-on-Wye?
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 Ross-on-Wye?
Send your postcode and, if you can, a photo of the roof and the room. We offer a survey date when we reply.
Fixed or opening?
Opening units suit kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms; fixed units are simpler and cheaper where the room already ventilates well.
Can I cancel?
Made-to-measure products are excluded from the statutory 14-day cancellation right, but you can cancel without charge until we place the order with the manufacturer. Our terms explain the rest.
