What do bespoke & shaped rooflights in Ludlow involve?
Our bespoke & shaped rooflights service in Ludlow 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.
Midlands housing is a mix of Victorian terraces, inter-war semis and newer estates, and rear kitchen extensions with flat rooflights are a common upgrade. Bespoke & shaped rooflights suit angled ceilings, corners and architect-designed extensions.
Neighbouring towns include Loughton (12 km) and Leominster (17 km). We offer a survey date when we reply to your enquiry.

Consents for bespoke & shaped rooflights in Ludlow
English householder permitted development (Class C) normally covers rooflights that stand no more than 0.15 m proud of the roof plane and stay below the highest part of the roof. 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. 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.
Read the planning permission guide before you commit to a design.

Questions about bespoke & shaped rooflights in Ludlow
Can bespoke units open?
Some can. Shaped glass is usually fixed, combined with a standard opening unit elsewhere.
Will a shaped rooflight leak more?
Not if detailed properly — corners and junctions just need more care.
Do you need my architect's drawings?
They help. We still survey on site, because built openings rarely match drawings exactly.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Ludlow?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
Will I need planning permission in Ludlow?
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.
