What we fit in Stamford
We survey, supply and fit skylights and rooflights in Stamford and the PE9 district — flat rooflights, roof lanterns, roof windows, walk-on glass, sun tunnels and commercial rooflights.
Older terraced streets in Midlands towns often have back additions and side passages that suit a ridge rooflight or long flat rooflight.
Neighbouring towns include Oakham (17 km) and Uppingham (18 km). We offer a survey date when we reply to your enquiry.

Planning and building rules in England
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. 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. 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.

Skylight questions: Stamford
Is the survey in Stamford free?
Yes for new installations. Repair visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we book.
Can you work alongside my builder in Stamford?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
Will I need planning permission in Stamford?
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.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Stamford?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
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.
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.
