Skylights & Roof Windows in Swindon
Local roofers for repairs, new roofs & flat roofing. Free surveys, fixed written quotes, tidy workmanship.
Swindon Roofing Company fits and repairs skylights across Swindon — roof windows in pitched roofs, flat-roof skylights over kitchen extensions, and the leak repairs that follow other people's shortcuts. Done right, a roof window is the cheapest dramatic improvement in the book: a dark landing, loft or kitchen transformed by the one direction light always comes from.
Done wrong, it's a hole in your roof — which is why fitting skylights is roofing work, not just window work. The flashing kit and its integration with your tiles or membrane is the whole job.
Skylight work we do
Pitched roof windows
VELUX-style windows fitted with the correct flashing kit for your tile profile — into lofts, landings, bathrooms and vaulted ceilings.
Flat roof skylights
Fixed flat glass, lantern and opening units built into EPDM and GRP roofs with proper insulated upstands.
Leaking skylight repairs
Re-flashing, re-sealing and glazing-unit swaps on existing windows — most 'leaks' are flashing or condensation, both fixable.
Replacement & upgrades
Tired 90s units swapped for modern glazing — often into the same aperture, in a day.

The condensation confession
Half the 'leaking' skylights we visit have never leaked: warm indoor air condenses on cold glass and drips, especially in bathrooms and kitchens, and especially on older single-spec units. The fixes are ventilation, trickle vents and modern glazing — cheaper than the re-flashing job that wouldn't have solved it. We diagnose before we quote, because fixing the wrong problem well is still fixing the wrong problem.
