Absolute Roofing – Covering Your Dreams

A roof window can transform a dark loft, landing or extension. Whether you want a new one fitted, an old one replaced, or a leaking one sorted, we'll get it watertight and looking right.

We fit roof windows into tiled and slate roofs with the correct flashing kits, and rooflights and lanterns into flat roofs.

What’s included

  • New roof window installation
  • Replacing old or failed roof windows
  • Correct flashing kits for tile and slate
  • Leaking skylight repairs
  • Flat roof rooflights and lanterns
  • Internal linings and finishing
  • Blinds and accessories
  • Advice on sizes and positions

Do I need planning permission?

Roof windows often fall under permitted development, provided they don't protrude too far beyond the roof slope and aren't on a principal elevation in a conservation area. Rules vary, so check with your local council if unsure. We can advise on what's typical.

Leaking roof windows

Many 'leaking skylights' are actually condensation or a failed flashing rather than the window itself. We'll check before recommending a replacement.

Common questions

How long does it take to fit a roof window?

Fitting a single roof window into an existing roof is often a day's work, plus internal finishing.

Can you fit a skylight in a flat roof?

Yes. Flat roofs suit fixed or opening rooflights and roof lanterns.
