Velux window installation in Billingshurst
- 01
Choosing the right window
Velux windows come as centre-pivot, which tilt in the middle, and top-hung, which open outwards from the top for a clearer view. There are also different glazing options for noise, heat and safety. We help you pick the type and size that suit the room.

Where to position it
The rafters decide where the window can go, and the height of the room decides how high it sits. In a bedroom or loft office, you'll want to see out when standing. Above stairs or a bath, an electric or solar window that opens with a remote is easier to reach.

Building rules to know
Adding a new roof window means cutting and trimming rafters, so it may need building regulations approval as a structural change. Windows in a loft conversion bedroom may also need to meet escape rules. We'll explain what applies to your home before we start.
What to expect from Velux window installation
We start with a visit to look at the room, the roof and the rafter spacing, and talk through window types and sizes. Your free quote covers the window, its flashing kit, any trimming of rafters and the access needed.
On the day, we strip back the tiles and felt, cut and trim the opening, fit the frame and flashing kit, then retile neatly around it. Inside, the opening is lined ready for finishing. Most single windows are fitted in a day.

Velux window installation questions
How much does Velux window installation cost in Billingshurst?
It depends on the size and type of window, the glazing you choose, whether it's manual or electric, and how much work the opening needs. Fitting two windows in one visit usually costs less per window. We give you a free quote after looking at the roof.
Can you fit a Velux window in a slate roof in West Sussex?
Yes. Velux make flashing kits for different roof coverings, including profiled tiles, flat tiles and slate. We use the right kit for your roof, which is what keeps the joins around the window watertight. The window itself is the same whatever the roof.
Will fitting a roof window make a mess in my Billingshurst home?
There's some dust and debris inside where the opening is cut, mostly in the loft or the room below the window. We sheet the area, keep the mess as contained as we can and clear up at the end of the day. Most of the work happens outside on the roof.
Can you fit an electric Velux window around Horsham?
Yes. Electric and solar-powered roof windows open with a remote or wall switch, which suits windows that are high up or hard to reach. Solar versions need no wiring. Electric ones need a power supply, which may need an electrician to connect it.
