How we approach conservation rooflights in Bloxwich
Conservation rooflights in Bloxwich means slim, low-profile steel-look rooflights for period and listed roofs. We cover the WS3 district and the rest of the West Midlands, with a survey before any price is fixed.
Older terraced streets in Midlands towns often have back additions and side passages that suit a ridge rooflight or long flat rooflight. Typical uses for conservation rooflights include period, listed and conservation-area roofs.
Bloxwich is around 17 km from Birmingham, and we survey and fit throughout that part of the West Midlands, including the WS3 district.

Do you need permission in Bloxwich?
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. 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.
