This substantial, older property needed all of its ageing skylights replaced.
The customer chose VELUX because of the company's reputation for making the most thermally efficient, easy to operate rooflights. More than just that though, they were very keen to keep the new installation in keeping with the style and character of their family home.
The end result can clearly be seen in the series of photographs, some of which are taken while the job was work in progress, this was achieved using the Conservation range of VELUX windows.
The customers were delighted with the result and said that they would call us back in another 90 years when the windows need replacing again…

In the light of the Covid pandemic, it should be possible to coin a new word 'Tempanent', meaning a temporary arrangement that gets more permanent with each passing day. More and more customers are now finding themselves spending more time working from home than anticipated. There's no problem with that of course, working at home does have its advantages like reduced commuting time.
However, this can result in too many compromises for long term good. When you go to a workplace that has been set up and refined over the years to make the most productive working environment, you expect to have all necessary resources at your fingertips. Homes aren't always set up in the same way.
One glaring (or not, as the case may be,) is light. We are finding that there's a strong demand at the moment for roof lights brought about by the necessity of converting attic space into a work place for one or more family members. Velux roof windows can transform this space from a gloomy, demotivating corner to a light, airy and open space, conducive to getting the best out of your working time.

The new generation of VELUX glass rooflights for flat roofs bring in more daylight than ever before via a minimalistic glass-to-edge design.
The rooflights increase the daylight area by up to 52 percent, compared to the previous generation, providing homeowners with a view of nothing but glass and sky. The new design is so seamless that the flat glass vented variant won this year's Red Dot Award in the category Product Design.
Furthermore, the unique construction of the rooflight, with two or three layers of glazing, also improves energy efficiency.
"We've designed the new glass rooflights to give people more of what they love in their homes: daylight, indoor comfort and fresh air. They are value-adding products for flat-roofed homes, giving indoor spaces a lift, by making them bright and airy and by providing a beautiful view of the sky."
