Bespoke & shaped rooflights for Deal: the essentials
Thinking about bespoke & shaped rooflights in Deal? 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.
Period cottages and conservation-area streets are common in the South East, so slim conservation rooflights are often the right choice. Think of bespoke & shaped rooflights for angled ceilings, corners and architect-designed extensions.
Jobs in Deal 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
- Concealed or slim frames
- Triangular and trapezoid panes
- Multi-pane butt-jointed runs
- Solar-control and low-iron glass
- Sloped or monopitch rooflights
- Structural or framed options
- Drawing sign-off before order
Before you order: points to check
- Longer lead times and no returns on made-to-measure glass
- Precise survey and template may be needed
Planning, building control and Deal
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.
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. 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.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.

Bespoke & shaped rooflights in Deal: questions
Do you need my architect's drawings?
They help. We still survey on site, because built openings rarely match drawings exactly.
Why does bespoke take longer?
Each unit is drawn, checked and manufactured to order.
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.
How do I book a survey in Deal?
Send your postcode and, if you can, a photo of the roof and the room. We offer a survey date when we reply.
Can you work alongside my builder in Deal?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
