What are skylights/velux windows?

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.

Weather and roof accessibility can also impact installation time, so consult with your installer for an accurate timeline.

An outstanding trades person. I posted the job in February but had to save up before the work could be done. Phil waited and he did the work for me in June.
