What do bespoke & shaped rooflights in Slough involve?
For Slough homes and buildings we offer bespoke & shaped rooflights: triangular, angled, curved and multi-pane rooflights made to measure. We measure first, specify to the opening and confirm any planning or building-control points before quoting.
Orangery-style extensions with lanterns are popular across the South East, and solar-control glass makes a big difference on south-facing gardens. Typical uses for bespoke & shaped rooflights include angled ceilings, corners and architect-designed extensions.
Slough is around 27 km from Reading, and we survey and fit throughout that part of Berkshire, including the SL1 district.
Options we can specify in Slough
- Corner and wrap-around glazing
- Solar-control and low-iron glass
- Multi-pane butt-jointed runs
- Concealed or slim frames
- Sloped or monopitch rooflights
- Works with architects and builders
- Structural or framed options
Before you order: points to check
- Large panes need a lifting plan
- Longer lead times and no returns on made-to-measure glass
Do you need permission in Slough?
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.
For English homes the energy rules ask for rooflights of 2.2 W/m²K or better and roof windows of 1.4 W/m²K (or WER Band B); most modern double glazed units meet both. Replacing a rooflight or roof window can be self-certified by an installer registered with an authorised competent person scheme; otherwise building control approval is needed.
Read the planning permission guide before you commit to a design.

Bespoke & shaped rooflights in Slough: questions
Can any shape be made?
Most straight-edged shapes can be made in glass, within the manufacturer's size and angle limits. Curved glass is possible but specialist.
Can I cancel a bespoke order?
Made-to-measure goods are excluded from the statutory 14-day cancellation right. As a goodwill gesture you can cancel without charge until we place the order with the manufacturer, and we tell you in writing when that happens.
Do you need my architect's drawings?
They help. We still survey on site, because built openings rarely match drawings exactly.
