What do bespoke & shaped rooflights in Stirling involve?
Thinking about bespoke & shaped rooflights in Stirling? The short answer: triangular, angled, curved and multi-pane rooflights made to measure. The longer answer depends on your roof, which is why we survey before we price.
Scottish weather is hard on roofs, so we specify rooflights and roof windows with exposure in mind and fit upstands with generous heights. Bespoke & shaped rooflights suit angled ceilings, corners and architect-designed extensions.
We cover all of Stirling and the FK8 district, and nearby Bridge of Allan and Dunblane.

Planning and building rules for Stirling
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. Listed buildings need listed building consent where the work affects their character.
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.
Read the planning permission guide before you commit to a design.

Bespoke & shaped rooflights in Stirling: questions
Do you need my architect's drawings?

Why does bespoke take longer?
Each unit is drawn, checked and manufactured to order.
Is the survey in Stirling free?
Yes for new installations. Repair visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we book.

Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
