What we fit in Cramlington
SkylightCompany.uk covers Cramlington and the surrounding part of Northumberland, from a single roof window in a loft to a glass link or a warehouse roof.
Older flat-roofed extensions in the North East are often due a new roof covering — the right time to upgrade the rooflight too.
We work across Northumberland, including Cramlington, and in neighbouring towns such as Blyth and Gosforth. Access, parking and how the glass reaches the roof are all checked at the survey.

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.
Building Regulations Approved Document L sets a limiting U-value of 2.2 W/m²K for new or replacement rooflights in existing homes, measured in the horizontal plane; roof windows need 1.4 W/m²K or a Band B energy rating. 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.
