Common questions  Stainesai
The cost can be affected by the size and type of skylight, roof accessibility, and any additional structural work needed.
A standard skylight installation typically takes 1-2 days, including preparation and post-installation checks.
In most cases, skylights do not require planning permission unless your property is in a listed building or conservation area.
Regular cleaning of the glass and checking seals for leaks are recommended to maintain a skylight's condition. Always confirm with your tradesperson before work begins.
