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.

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?

The job started as refurbishing a kitchen extension. Nik and his guys worked quickly and paid attention to detail. Nik came up with the best possible layout given the space. I liked the way he worked so he ended up refurbishing the whole house. He made use of the materials and fixed things that needed fixing as he went along all within the quoted price. A good honest team of builders that transformed the property.

Andrea and his team were excellent. He is very reliable, efficient and hard working. He made a very challenging job look easy and did some extra things for me that weren’t included in the quote, without charging extra. He got back to me quickly and the whole job took less than 2 weeks from me posting to completion. I would definitely recommend this company and I’m sure I will ask him to do other jobs for me.

Endrit and his team were wonderful to work with - friendly and professional and nothing was too much trouble for them, despite me changing aspects of the kitchen renovation and install during the process. They went above and beyond to ensure that everything was perfect and that I was happy with all aspects. My new kitchen looks amazing and I can't recommend Endrit and his team highly enough - I have already recommended E Saint George to friends and will be getting them back to install my bathroom.

I paid for new roof in 2017 with 25 years warranty. In November 2024 the roof felt apart. I made claim through my insurance company who appointed BVS surveyor to inspect the roof. Insurance claim was declined due to poor workmanship ( insufficient battens, not secureed dry verge, tiles and not enough felt). I asked Roofsmart honour their warranty but they refused saying that I paid cheap and now they charge 10k for new roof but who wants defective roof in the first place Now I need to take legal action.

Update on previous rating as follows. I have downgraded my star rating because after the work was finished a water leak was discovered. The leak was due to a poor connection on pipes underneath the floor tiles below the newly fitted washbasin. It has cost nearly £1000 to find and repair the leak , plus water charges. The firm has not offered any compensation for their mistake.
