How we approach skylight installation in Inverurie
We handle skylight installation across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, including Inverurie. In short: survey, supply and fit — new openings, extensions and fit-only work. The survey checks structure, weathering and orientation, so the quote reflects your actual roof.
Stone villas, cottages and conservation areas across Scotland often call for conservation rooflights in slate roofs. Skylight installation suits new extensions, new openings and fit-only jobs.
Inverurie is around 23 km from Aberdeen, and we survey and fit throughout that part of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, including the AB51 district.

Planning and building rules for Inverurie
Scottish householder permitted development (Class 2B, other external alterations) can cover a rooflight that projects no more than 1 metre from the roof, but the right does not apply in conservation areas. Listed buildings need listed building consent where the work affects their character.
Under the Scottish building standards, replacement rooflights should average 1.6 W/m²K or better, and no individual unit should exceed 3.3 W/m²K. Forming a new opening normally involves structural work, so check with the local authority verifier whether a building warrant is needed.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.

Questions about skylight installation in Inverurie
Do you work with builders?
Yes — on new extensions we fit to the builder's programme once the upstand or roof is ready.
Do you fit rooflights bought elsewhere?
Yes. We check the product and the opening first, and our workmanship terms cover the fitting rather than the product.
Who handles building control?
We tell you which route applies — building control approval, a building warrant in Scotland, or in England and Wales self-certification by a registered competent person — and supply the product data.
Is the survey in Inverurie free?
Yes for new installations. Repair visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we book.
Can you work alongside my builder in Inverurie?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
