What do bespoke & shaped rooflights in Bexley involve?
Bespoke & shaped rooflights in Bexley means triangular, angled, curved and multi-pane rooflights made to measure. We cover the DA5 district and the rest of Greater London, with a survey before any price is fixed.
Mansard and loft conversions are common across London, and roof windows are often set out alongside dormers on the rear slope. Typical uses for bespoke & shaped rooflights include openings that standard sizes do not fit.
Bexley is around 20 km from central London, and we survey and fit throughout that part of Greater London, including the DA5 district.

Planning, building control and Bexley
Most rooflights on English houses do not need planning permission, provided they keep within 150 mm of the roof surface and below the ridge line. 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. 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.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.

Common 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.
Do you need my architect's drawings?
They help. We still survey on site, because built openings rarely match drawings exactly.
Will a shaped rooflight leak more?
Not if detailed properly — corners and junctions just need more care.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Bexley?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
