Burgess Hill sits about 5 km from Haywards Heath and 14 km from Portslade, and we cover the whole RH15 postcode district and the roads in between.

Consents for bespoke & shaped rooflights in Burgess Hill
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. A rooflight on a side-facing slope must be obscure-glazed, and fixed shut unless the opening part is more than 1.7 m above the floor.
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. Replacing a rooflight or roof window can be self-certified by an installer registered with an authorised competent person scheme; otherwise building control approval is needed.

Some can. Shaped glass is usually fixed, combined with a standard opening unit elsewhere.

Not if detailed properly — corners and junctions just need more care.
