What are skylights/velux windows?
Skylights and Velux windows are roof windows designed to let in natural light and, in many cases, provide ventilation. They can be fixed or operable and come in a range of styles to fit different roof types and design preferences. Velux is a popular brand known for its high-quality, energy-efficient roof windows, ideal for brightening rooms and enhancing the look of your space.

- Basic Skylights: Installation costs typically range from £500 to £1,000 for a simple, fixed skylight.
- Velux Windows: Standard installations cost between £700 and £1,500, with more for electric or solar-powered models.
- Custom Roof Windows: Complex installations or larger windows may cost upwards of £2,000, especially for multi-window designs.
How long does installation take?
The installation time depends on the type of window and roof:
- Single Skylights/Velux Windows: Most installations are completed within 1 day.
- Larger or Multiple Windows: These may take 2 to 3 days, especially if structural modifications are needed.
Weather and roof accessibility can also impact installation time, so consult with your installer for an accurate timeline.

Wallace Roofing Ltd. Specialist in all aspects of roofing.
Pros: Fair and competitive pricing. Work scheduled on short notice and finished quicker than expected. On-site team was professional and courteous. Cons: Needed to follow up to get scaffolding removed. Warranty documents were delayed by over a month despite multiple chases. Gutters were not reinstalled properly causing leaks. Two repair attempts failed and I'm now waiting on a full replacement with no exact date confirmed as yet.
