Skylights and roof windows in Hounslow
Hounslow is about six miles from our base in Surbiton. We fit skylights, Velux roof windows, flat rooflights, roof lanterns and sun tunnels across TW3, TW4 and TW5.
Quieter roof windows under the flight paths
Much of Hounslow sits under the Heathrow flight paths, and a roof window can let aircraft noise in along with the light. Velux makes glazing designed to reduce noise, with laminated panes that stop more sound than a standard unit. Fitting matters as much as the glass: an insulation collar around the frame and flashing dressed tight to the roof leave no gaps for sound to find.
What we fit in Hounslow
- Velux pitched roof windows for lofts and loft conversions, manual, electric or solar-powered.
- Flat glass rooflights and roof lanterns for rear extensions and kitchens.
- Sun tunnels for landings and bathrooms that a window cannot reach.
- Blackout and solar blinds, which also help keep a loft bedroom dark and cool.
Planning in Hounslow
The London Borough of Hounslow is the planning authority. Most rooflights on houses are permitted development, but flats, listed buildings and homes in conservation areas have their own rules, and a new opening in the roof usually needs building regulations approval. We will tell you what your job needs when we come to see it.

Questions from Hounslow
Do you cover Hounslow?
Yes. Hounslow and the TW3, TW4 and TW5 postcodes are part of our area, and the survey and quote are free.
Can a roof window keep out aircraft noise?
No window blocks noise completely, but glazing made to reduce noise, fitted with the frame properly insulated and sealed, cuts it noticeably. We can quote for sound-reducing glazing alongside the standard option.
