What we fit in Hawick
From flat-roof extensions to period slate roofs, we fit the right rooflight for the building in Hawick — after a survey, with a fixed written price.
Short winter days in Scotland make every square metre of overhead glass count, so rooflight sizing matters.
We work across the Scottish Borders, including Hawick, and in neighbouring towns such as Selkirk and Jedburgh. Access, parking and how the glass reaches the roof are all checked at the survey.

Planning and building rules in Scotland
Planning rules in Scotland differ: rooflights are treated as external alterations under Class 2B, with no permitted development in conservation areas. Flats and tenements are outside householder permitted development, so check with the planning authority first.
Under the Scottish building standards, replacement rooflights should average 1.6 W/m²K or better, and no individual unit should exceed 3.3 W/m²K. Forming a new opening normally involves structural work, so check with the local authority verifier whether a building warrant is needed.

Skylight questions: Hawick
Will I need planning permission in Hawick?
Scottish householder permitted development (Class 2B, other external alterations) can cover a rooflight that projects no more than 1 metre from the roof, but the right does not apply in conservation areas.
Do you fit skylights and rooflights in Hawick?
Yes. We survey and fit skylights and rooflights in Hawick and across the Scottish Borders. Send your postcode and we will offer a survey date when we reply.
How do I book a survey in Hawick?
Send your postcode and, if you can, a photo of the roof and the room. We offer a survey date when we reply.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Hawick?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
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.
Fixed or opening?
Opening units suit kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms; fixed units are simpler and cheaper where the room already ventilates well.
