Skylights, rooflights and Velux blinds in Esher
Esher is about four miles from our base in Surbiton. Our job here swapped two fixed flat-roof skylights for Velux solar-powered windows with matching solar blinds, and we fit Velux blinds across Esher, to new windows and old.
Our work in Esher
The homeowner’s two skylights let light in but did nothing else: no fresh air on warm days and no shade when the sun was overhead. We took out both fixed units, checked the timber kerbs, and fitted two Velux solar-powered windows with their flashings dressed into the felt roof. Two matching solar blinds went in with them. Windows and blinds each work from their own remote, with no wiring anywhere.
Velux blinds in Esher
A roof window lets in a lot of light, so the right blind matters. We fit the full Velux range: blackout and Duo blinds for bedrooms, roller and Venetian blinds for kitchens and living rooms, and solar-powered blinds that need no wiring and suit windows out of reach. Blinds can go on with new windows or onto the ones you have now. See our roof window blinds for the details.
Skylights and lanterns for Esher homes
A rear extension or kitchen-diner suits a roof lantern or a long flat glass rooflight, and a loft suits Velux roof windows. Because we also lay EPDM rubber and GRP flat roofs, we can renew the roof and fit the glass in one job.

Questions from Esher
Do you fit Velux blinds in Esher?
Yes. We supply and fit Velux blinds made to the size of each window: blackout, Duo, roller, Venetian and solar-powered blinds. Send us the code from the window's data plate, or we can check it when we visit.
Can a fixed skylight be replaced with one that opens?
Yes. That is exactly what we did in Esher: two sealed skylights on a flat roof became Velux solar-powered windows that open by remote and close themselves when it rains, on the existing timber kerbs.
Who handles planning for rooflights in Esher?
Elmbridge Borough Council. Most rooflights on houses are permitted development, but Elmbridge has many conservation areas, and listed buildings and flats have their own rules, so check before you commit.
