What do bespoke & shaped rooflights in Swansea involve?
Our bespoke & shaped rooflights service in Swansea 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.
Slate roofs, stone cottages and terraced valleys are typical across Wales, and slim rooflights that sit low in the slates suit them best. Think of bespoke & shaped rooflights for angled ceilings, corners and architect-designed extensions.
Swansea is the main town we list in West Glamorgan; we also cover nearby Briton Ferry and Gorseinon.

Consents for bespoke & shaped rooflights in Swansea
Planning rules in Wales are tighter than in England for rooflights: Class C rights do not apply in conservation areas, National Parks or AONBs, so a rooflight there needs planning permission. A side-facing rooflight within 10.5 m of the boundary must be obscure-glazed, and non-opening unless the opening part is more than 1.7 m above the floor.
Welsh Building Regulations expect new or replacement rooflights to reach 2.2 W/m²K and roof windows 1.4 W/m²K or a Band B rating. A revised Welsh Approved Document L takes effect on 4 March 2027; rooflights in new dwellings stay at 2.2 W/m²K.

Common questions
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.
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 you work alongside my builder in Swansea?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
Do you offer bespoke & shaped rooflights in Swansea?
Yes. We carry out bespoke & shaped rooflights in Swansea and across West Glamorgan. Send your postcode and we will offer a survey date when we reply.
