Skylights and roof windows in Chingford
Chingford is on the far side of London from our base in Surbiton, about 20 miles away, and we travel there for skylight and roof window jobs across E4.
Chingford homes
Much of Chingford is Edwardian and interwar housing on the edge of Epping Forest, with pitched tiled roofs that suit Velux roof windows well, whether for a loft room or a dark landing. Rear extensions take a flat glass rooflight or a roof lantern, and a sun tunnel can light a hallway or bathroom with no window of its own.
Roofs and rooflights in one job
We also lay EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass flat roofs, so a tired extension roof and a new rooflight can be done together by one team.
Planning in Chingford
The London Borough of Waltham Forest is the planning authority. A new opening in the roof usually needs building regulations approval, and we will tell you what your job needs when we come to see it.
