A rooflight is a glazed window installed on a flat roof or fitted out of plane with the tiling on a pitched roof. Rooflights are designed to bring natural daylight into a space without altering the building’s overall aesthetics.
For flat roof installations, rooflights typically require a kerb system to ensure proper height for water runoff and weatherproofing. They are available in various styles, sizes, and materials, making them a versatile choice for any home, extension, or commercial property.
One of the biggest advantages of rooflights is that they usually do not require planning permission, as they do not significantly change the building’s external appearance. This makes them an ideal solution for homeowners looking to enhance natural lighting and improve energy efficiency without the hassle of additional approvals.
