When installing new roof windows, or replacing your existing windows Hamilton Roofing & Building Ltd ensure that you’ll receive only the best level of service, at the most competitively priced.

To be able to choose the right Velux roof window, it is always recommended to start from the construction of the house/property, user requirements, and the current building regulations. In most cases a standard Velux roof window can satisfy the basic requirements, however choosing another window type, variant, or by choosing accessories; can often optimise the functionality and increase the utility value of the window.

When installing Velux windows the following aspects need to be considered:

The distance between the rafters in the roof construction usually dictates the appropriate size of the windows, if cutting them and installing trimmers is not an available option. As such you should first check whether the position chosen and size of the roof windows fit into the existing roof construction, or if rafters will.

The roof pitch is also important when choosing windows and flashings. As a rule, Velux products can be used in roof pitches from 15° to 90°, however there are exceptions so always check whether the products chosen can be used in the roof pitch in question
