Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a Velux window cost to install?
A standard Velux centre-pivot window including supply and installation typically costs between £1,000 and £2,500 in the UK. Costs vary depending on the window size, glazing specification, and the complexity of the installation. Top-hung and electric models are at the higher end of this range.
Do I need planning permission for a Velux window?
In most cases, Velux windows on rear-facing roof slopes are permitted development and do not require planning permission. However, there are restrictions: the window must not protrude more than 150mm beyond the roof plane, and there are additional rules for conservation areas, listed buildings, and front-facing installations. We advise checking with your local council.
Can you install a Velux window in a flat roof?
Yes. Velux manufacture a specific range of flat roof windows designed for roofs with pitches between 0 and 15 degrees. These are ideal for single-storey extensions, orangeries, and flat-roofed dormers. We supply and install the full range of Velux flat roof windows.
How long does it take to install a Velux window?
A single Velux window installation typically takes one day to complete, including cutting the opening, fitting the window, and making good the internal and external finishes. If multiple windows are being installed or internal plastering is required, the work may take two to three days.
