How we approach bespoke & shaped rooflights in Goole
Our bespoke & shaped rooflights service in Goole covers triangular, angled, curved and multi-pane rooflights made to measure. Every job starts with a survey of the opening, the roof covering and the room below, and a fixed written price.
Many Yorkshire homes have had kitchen extensions with flat roofs, where a larger glass rooflight is a straightforward upgrade from an old dome. Bespoke & shaped rooflights suit angled ceilings, corners and architect-designed extensions.
Jobs in Goole are planned around access: whether the roof can be reached from the garden, whether a hoist or crane is needed, and where we can park. We check this when we measure.
What you can choose
- Corner and wrap-around glazing
- Multi-pane butt-jointed runs
- Concealed or slim frames
- Triangular and trapezoid panes
- Sloped or monopitch rooflights
- Matching solar and thermal performance
- Glass shaped to the architecture
What to check first
- Large panes need a lifting plan
- Precise survey and template may be needed
Do you need permission in Goole?
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. 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.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.

Common questions
Why does bespoke take longer?
Each unit is drawn, checked and manufactured to order.
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.
Do you need my architect's drawings?
They help. We still survey on site, because built openings rarely match drawings exactly.
Is the survey in Goole free?
Yes for new installations. Repair visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we book.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Goole?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
