Bespoke & shaped rooflights for Lichfield: the essentials
Bespoke & shaped rooflights in Lichfield means triangular, angled, curved and multi-pane rooflights made to measure. We cover the WS13 district and the rest of Staffordshire, with a survey before any price is fixed.
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.
From Lichfield to Burntwood, Tamworth and Aldridge, the same survey-first process applies: measure, specify, fix the price, then fit.

Consents for bespoke & shaped rooflights in Lichfield
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.
