Conservation rooflights for Havant: the essentials
Conservation rooflights in Havant means slim, low-profile steel-look rooflights for period and listed roofs. We cover the PO9 district and the rest of Hampshire, with a survey before any price is fixed.
Across the South East, single-storey kitchen extensions on 1930s semis and post-war detached houses are where most flat rooflights and lanterns go. Think of conservation rooflights for slate and plain-tile roofs where a quiet roofline matters.
Havant is around 30 km from Southampton, and we survey and fit throughout that part of Hampshire, including the PO9 district.

Planning and building rules for Havant
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.
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.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.
