How we approach bespoke & shaped rooflights in Bromsgrove
Thinking about bespoke & shaped rooflights in Bromsgrove? The short answer: triangular, angled, curved and multi-pane rooflights made to measure. The longer answer depends on your roof, which is why we survey before we price.
Many Midlands semis have had a single-storey rear extension added, and a larger flat rooflight or lantern is often the change that makes it feel finished. In Bromsgrove, as anywhere, bespoke & shaped rooflights are the usual choice for openings that standard sizes do not fit.
Neighbouring towns include Redditch (8 km) and Droitwich (10 km). We offer a survey date when we reply to your enquiry.

Consents for bespoke & shaped rooflights in Bromsgrove
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. 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.
Building Regulations Approved Document L sets a limiting U-value of 2.2 W/m²K for new or replacement rooflights in existing homes, measured in the horizontal plane; roof windows need 1.4 W/m²K or a Band B energy rating. In an extension, glazing including rooflights is normally limited to 25% of the new floor area plus any windows or doors the extension covers, unless a whole-house calculation shows otherwise.

Bespoke & shaped rooflights in Bromsgrove: questions
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.
Do you need my architect's drawings?
They help. We still survey on site, because built openings rarely match drawings exactly.
Why does bespoke take longer?
Each unit is drawn, checked and manufactured to order.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Bromsgrove?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
Can you work alongside my builder in Bromsgrove?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
