Bespoke & shaped rooflights in Kinross: what is involved?
Our bespoke & shaped rooflights service in Kinross 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 Scottish homes have dormers and attic rooms where an extra roof window adds light without a full dormer. Think of bespoke & shaped rooflights for openings that standard sizes do not fit.
Neighbouring towns include Dunfermline (15 km) and Glenrothes (15 km). We offer a survey date when we reply to your enquiry.

Do you need permission in Kinross?
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. Flats and tenements are outside householder permitted development, so check with the planning authority first.
Scottish energy standards for glazing, including rooflights, use an area-weighted average of 1.4–1.6 W/m²K in extensions, so most modern units comply comfortably. Replacing a rooflight, frame included, does not need a building warrant, but the work must still meet the building standards.

Questions about bespoke & shaped rooflights in Kinross
Do you need my architect's drawings?
They help. We still survey on site, because built openings rarely match drawings exactly.
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 bespoke units open?
Some can. Shaped glass is usually fixed, combined with a standard opening unit elsewhere.
Is the survey in Kinross free?
Yes for new installations. Repair visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we book.
How do I book a survey in Kinross?
Send your postcode and, if you can, a photo of the roof and the room. We offer a survey date when we reply.
