Local skylight & velux window experts

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.

Cost of installing skylights and velux windows

The cost of installing skylights or Velux windows varies based on the size, type, and roof structure:

  • 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.

Post a job

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.

Other skylight and velux window FAQs

Do skylights and Velux windows increase energy efficiency?

Yes, many skylights and Velux windows are designed with energy-efficient glass that helps regulate indoor temperatures, reducing heating and cooling costs.

Can skylights be installed on flat roofs?
