Roof Windows in Keyworth: VELUX and Other Makes Fitted
Loft rooms and bungalow roof spaces can be dark, and a roof window is one of the simplest ways to bring in daylight. In Keyworth, where bungalows and larger detached houses are common, there are plenty of roof spaces that could be put to better use with some extra light.
Evans Roofing Services is an independent contractor and is not VELUX-approved. We supply and fit roof windows, including VELUX and other makes, and we work from the roof outwards: checking the structure and covering first, then the window. Bungalow loft conversions in particular can depend on good daylight, and a pair of roof windows can change how a room feels without altering the shape of the house.
Fitting, replacing and fixing roof windows
A new opening in a pitched roof means cutting rafters and forming a sound frame, so the structure has to suit it. Replacing an older window is often more straightforward, provided a unit of the right size is available.
Many leaks around roof windows turn out to come from flashings or surrounding tiles, not the glass, and the repair is aimed at the actual cause. Where a new window is fitted, the surrounding tiles are cut and re-laid carefully so the flashing sits properly and the roof stays watertight.
- New roof windows in suitable pitched roofs
- Replacement of older units where sizes allow
- Flashings matched to your roof covering
- Leak investigation around existing windows
- Rooflights for flat roofs
- Loft and attic windows for roof rooms
Before you add a window
Creating a new opening, or converting a loft, may need building regulations approval and in some cases planning permission, so check with your local council. Roof window work can also be affected by what is underneath, such as insulation and ventilation.

VELUX Roof Windows in Keyworth: common questions
Do you only fit VELUX windows?
No. We supply and fit VELUX and other makes, working as an independent contractor without any VELUX approval. The choice usually comes down to size, roof pitch and what suits your budget and taste.
Can a roof window go into any roof?
Not always. The pitch, rafter layout and covering all affect what is suitable, so the roof is looked at before a window is recommended. Rooms built into the roof also need adequate insulation and ventilation, which the surrounding work should respect.
