ROOF WINDOWS, SKYLIGHTS & SUN TUNNELS
NATURAL LIGHT, DONE PROPERLY
At Rogers Roofing, we supply and install roof windows, skylights and sun tunnels across Dorset, using trusted brands such as VELUX and FAKRO. These systems are designed to improve light, ventilation and comfort while maintaining a watertight, durable finish that integrates seamlessly with the rest of the roof.
All roof windows and skylights are fitted strictly to the manufacturer’s specifications and in line with BS 5534 roofing standards, ensuring each installation performs exactly as intended. We also carry out repairs and upgrades to existing roof windows such as replacing worn/leaking flashing kits.
ROOF WINDOWS
A roof window is an opening window installed within the slope of a pitched roof, providing both natural light and ventilation. They are ideal for loft conversions, attic rooms, or any upper-floor space where airflow is important.
We install VELUX and FAKRO roof windows, both of which are known for their precision engineering and reliability. Options include centre-pivot, top-hung and manual or electric opening mechanisms, allowing flexibility depending on the roof pitch and room layout.
Frames are typically made from high-quality timber or maintenance-free polyurethane, with double or triple glazing available for added insulation and sound reduction. Each unit is designed to sit flush with the roofline and is installed using a dedicated flashing kit, ensuring full weather protection and a professional finish.
We also replace or upgrade existing roof windows, including fitting new flashing kits where the originals have deteriorated, or installing new complete units where required. Both FAKRO and VELUX continue to supply compatible parts and updated window models, allowing us to match previous installations seamlessly.
SKYLIGHTS
Skylights (or fixed rooflights) provide natural light without the need for ventilation. They are ideal for areas where an opening window isn’t required, such as stairwells, landings or hallways.
Our VELUX and FAKRO fixed skylights feature high-performance glazing that reduces glare, limits heat loss and provides UV protection. The sealed frames ensure complete weather resistance, and the minimalist design gives a clean, modern appearance inside and out.
Skylights can be fitted into both pitched and flat roofs, depending on the product type. We select and install models that suit the structure and roof covering of each property, ensuring a perfect fit and reliable long-term performance.
SUN TUNNELS
For spaces where a traditional window isn’t possible, such as internal bathrooms, corridors or loft spaces, sun tunnels offer an effective solution. These systems use a reflective tube to channel natural daylight from the roof into the room below, creating bright, even illumination throughout the day.
We fit both rigid and flexible sun tunnels from VELUX and FAKRO, depending on the roof layout. Rigid tunnels are best for direct runs and maximum light transfer, while flexible tunnels are ideal where structural obstacles or angles are present.
Each system includes a high-quality weatherproof roof dome, reflective tubing and a ceiling diffuser to distribute light evenly. Once fitted, the system requires no maintenance and provides a steady, natural light source year-round.
REPAIRS & UPGRADES
If your existing roof window or skylight is leaking, showing condensation between panes, or suffering from damaged flashing, we can inspect and repair it. All repairs use genuine manufacturer parts and are carried out with the same attention to detail as a full installation.
