Ridge & pitched glass roofs in Edmonton means dual-pitch glazed roofs for side returns, links and long extensions. We cover the N18 district and the rest of Greater London, with a survey before any price is fixed.

Planning, building control and Edmonton
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. 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.
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. 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 ridge & pitched glass roofs in Edmonton
Can it be partly solid?
Yes — part-glazed, part-insulated roofs balance light and heat.
How long does a ridge roof take to fit?
Typically two to four days once the walls and supports are ready, depending on length and access.
Will it be noisy in the rain?
Glass is quieter than polycarbonate. Triple glazing or laminated glass reduces rain noise further.
Can you work alongside my builder in Edmonton?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Edmonton?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
