Bespoke & shaped rooflights in Crowthorne: what is involved?
We handle bespoke & shaped rooflights across Berkshire, including Crowthorne. In short: triangular, angled, curved and multi-pane rooflights made to measure. The survey checks structure, weathering and orientation, so the quote reflects your actual roof.
Larger gardens in much of the South East mean deeper rear extensions, and deeper rooms need light from above rather than only from the doors. Think of bespoke & shaped rooflights for angled ceilings, corners and architect-designed extensions.
From Crowthorne to Sandhurst, Yateley and Camberley, the same survey-first process applies: measure, specify, fix the price, then fit.

Planning, building control and Crowthorne
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. Listed buildings need listed building consent, flats have no householder permitted development rights, and an Article 4 direction can remove the rights in some conservation areas.
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.
