How we approach flat rooflights in Bedworth
For Bedworth homes and buildings we offer flat rooflights: fixed double or triple glazed rooflights for flat roofs and extensions. We measure first, specify to the opening and confirm any planning or building-control points before quoting.
Industrial and commercial units around Midlands towns often still have their original rooflight sheets, which are due for replacement. In Bedworth, as anywhere, flat rooflights are the usual choice for kitchen extensions, side returns and flat-roofed back rooms.
Bedworth is around 5 km from Nuneaton, and we survey and fit throughout that part of Warwickshire, including the CV12 district.
Specification options
- Insulated kerb or timber upstand built to suit
- Solar-control or self-cleaning outer pane
- Plastered or lined internal reveal
- Rain sensor if paired with an opening unit
- Integral or fitted blinds
- Slim sightlines from inside — mostly glass, little frame
- Inner pane laminated for safety overhead
Things we check at survey
- New openings in an existing roof need a structural check on joists
- The roof membrane must be dressed up the upstand before the unit goes on
Do you need permission in Bedworth?
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. Listed buildings need listed building consent, flats have no householder permitted development rights, and an Article 4 direction can remove the rights in some conservation areas.
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.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.

Questions about flat rooflights in Bedworth
Will it make the room too hot?
A big unglazed-to-sky area can add solar gain in summer. Solar-control glass, a blind, or pairing a fixed unit with an opening one keeps it comfortable.
Double or triple glazing?
Double glazing suits most domestic jobs. Triple glazing improves thermal performance and cuts noise from rain, which is worth it over bedrooms or where the energy calculation is tight.
Do flat rooflights leak?
A well-fitted flat rooflight should not leak. Leaks almost always come from the upstand or membrane detailing, not the glass unit, which is why the upstand height and the way the roof covering is dressed up and under the frame matter more than the brand.
