How we approach skylight replacement in Craigavon
For Craigavon homes and buildings we offer skylight replacement: replacing tired domes and failed glass with a modern rooflight. We measure first, specify to the opening and confirm any planning or building-control points before quoting.
Bungalows are widespread in Northern Ireland, and sun tunnels or roof windows are an easy way to brighten internal hallways. Typical uses for skylight replacement include yellowed domes, misted glass and leaking roof windows.
We cover all of Craigavon and the BT62 district, and nearby Lurgan and Portadown.

Consents for skylight replacement in Craigavon
Northern Ireland's householder permitted development allows rooflights within limits — no more than 15 cm projection on road-facing slopes and a 0.5 m margin from ridge, eaves and party walls. Listed buildings also need listed building consent from the council.
For homes in Northern Ireland, Technical Booklet F1 sets 1.6 W/m²K (or WER Band C) for replacement glazing including rooflights. New dwellings must average 1.40 W/m²K across windows, roof windows and rooflights.

Common questions
What do you do with the old unit?
We remove it from site and recycle what can be recycled.
Can I go bigger when replacing?
Possibly. Enlarging the opening means trimming joists, so we check the structure first.
Will it mess up my ceiling?
We protect the room and make good the reveal. Minor decoration may be needed afterwards.
Do I need to be at home for the survey in Craigavon?
Yes — someone needs to let us into the room below and, where possible, show us how the roof is reached.
Can you work alongside my builder in Craigavon?
Yes. On new extensions we fit once the opening and upstand are ready and coordinate dates with your builder.
