VELUX Roof Window Installation in Dulwich Homes
A VELUX roof window installation needs the correct unit, flashing kit and roof opening for the property. The surrounding covering and internal finish affect the outcome as much as the window itself. Discuss daylight, ventilation and access before choosing a size.
Prepare the installation brief
- Identify the room's use and desired opening arrangement.
- Confirm pitch, covering and structural requirements.
- Include insulation, internal lining and making good in the scope.
Ask the installer to identify the proposed model and compatible accessories, with any necessary approvals confirmed before work begins.
Include the surrounding roof and interior
A roof-window quotation should cover the compatible flashing or upstand, surrounding roof repairs, insulation and internal making good. Ask how condensation risk and ventilation have been considered. For an existing leak, identify the model where possible and provide the repair history. Replacing a window without addressing an unsuitable surrounding detail may leave the problem unresolved.
