Ridge & pitched glass roofs for Yeadon: the essentials
We handle ridge & pitched glass roofs across West Yorkshire, including Yeadon. In short: dual-pitch glazed roofs for side returns, links and long extensions. The survey checks structure, weathering and orientation, so the quote reflects your actual roof.
Converted barns and mills in Yorkshire often suit bespoke or ridge rooflights that follow the original structure. Ridge & pitched glass roofs suit side returns, links and long extensions.
Yeadon is around 12 km from Leeds, and we survey and fit throughout that part of West Yorkshire, including the LS19 district.
Choices for your Yeadon project
- Aluminium systems in standard and RAL colours
- Fixed or retractable shading
- Opening vents and electric actuators
- Integrated gutters and box gutters
- Solar-control, self-cleaning or tinted glass
- Works with exposed brick and period detail
- Maximum daylight for side returns
Things we check at survey
- Large glass roofs affect the energy calculation for the extension
- Overheating is a real risk on south-facing glass roofs
Planning, building control and Yeadon
In England a rooflight on a house is usually permitted development under Class C if it projects no more than 150 mm beyond the roof slope and sits no higher than the ridge. 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. 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.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.
