Velux roof window supply, installation and flashing across Whipton. We install on Welsh slate, concrete tile and clay tile with the correct Velux flashing kit for each roof type. Post-war estate tile — same approach as Pinhoe. Nail condition checked before installation to ensure the tile substrate is stable. Free survey. Call 01392 759 295.
Velux window performance depends as much on the correct flashing specification as on the window itself. A standard EDW flashing kit suits most concrete and clay tile roofs in Whipton. For Welsh slate, low-pitch roofs and heritage properties in Whipton’s conservation areas, specialist flashings are required. We specify the correct flashing type at the survey stage — not after the window has been ordered.
Most domestic Velux installations in Whipton are permitted development. The exceptions are properties in the conservation area, listed buildings, and installations that would exceed the permitted development limits for roof alterations. We confirm the planning position for every Whipton survey before the window is ordered. Post-war estate tile — same approach as Pinhoe. Nail condition checked before installation to ensure the tile substrate is stable.
A standard Velux installation in Whipton follows a clear sequence: survey confirms size, model and flashing type; window and flashings ordered; installation day — tiles removed, counter-batten and tiling batten adjusted, Velux EDL or EDW flashing fitted, window seated, tiles reinstated, internal reveal finished. The roof is weather-tight by the end of the same day. We carry a range of standard Velux sizes on all vehicles so most Whipton surveys result in same-week installation.
