Sun tunnels & tubular skylights for Droitwich: the essentials
Sun tunnels & tubular skylights in Droitwich means light pipes that bring daylight to halls and bathrooms with no window. We cover the WR9 district and the rest of Worcestershire, with a survey before any price is fixed.
Many Midlands semis have had a single-storey rear extension added, and a larger flat rooflight or lantern is often the change that makes it feel finished. In Droitwich, as anywhere, sun tunnels & tubular skylights are the usual choice for windowless hallways, landings and bathrooms.
We work across Worcestershire, including Droitwich, and in neighbouring towns such as Bromsgrove and Worcester. Access, parking and how the glass reaches the roof are all checked at the survey.

Do you need permission in Droitwich?
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. 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.
Building Regulations Approved Document L sets a limiting U-value of 2.2 W/m²K for new or replacement rooflights in existing homes, measured in the horizontal plane; roof windows need 1.4 W/m²K or a Band B energy rating. The Future Homes and Buildings Standards, published in March 2026, apply from 24 March 2027 and keep the 2.2 W/m²K limit for rooflights.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.
