Roof Windows for Mountain Ash Homes
Terraced houses only get daylight from two ends, which is why so many Mountain Ash landings, stairwells and box rooms live in permanent dusk. A single well-placed roof window changes the feel of the whole floor - and adds usable space to a loft.
The window itself is the easy half. The hard half is the hole in the roof around it: the flashing kit, the slate dressing and the weatherproof detailing that decides whether it stays dry through a valley winter. That half is roofing work.
We fit leading-brand roof windows into slate and tile, replace misted and leaking units, and flash every one to the standard you would expect of a roofer in Mountain Ash who has to drive past the job every week.

Skylight Trouble We See Often
Roof windows fail in a handful of predictable ways - and each has a proper fix.
Drips Around the Frame
Nearly always the flashing rather than the window - the fixable half.
Fog Between the Panes
Misted glazing means the sealed unit is finished and wants replacing.
Stained Timber Reveal
Slow seepage rots the lining below - repaired alongside the reflash.
Constant Condensation
Often ventilation rather than leakage - we work out which before quoting.
Whistling in the Wind
Perished seals and worn hinges let the valley wind through - a small fix.
A Pre-2000 Unit
Old single-glazed skylights pour heat out - modern units repay fast.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers about skylights in Mountain Ash.
Will a skylight work in my terrace roof?
Almost certainly – valley terraces suit roof windows well, and the darker the landing the bigger the payoff. We check the rafter spacing and roof pitch and recommend the right size unit.
Do I need planning permission in Mountain Ash?
Rarely – most roof windows are permitted development. If your street has any special designations we check first and tell you where you stand before anything is ordered.
How long does the job take?
A single window is typically fitted and fully weathered-in within a day. We do not leave open roofs overnight, whatever the size of the job.
My skylight drips in heavy rain - new window?
Usually not – if the glazing is sound the fault is flashing or seals, which we repair for far less than a replacement. If the unit itself has failed we will say so and price both routes.
Can you fit windows into old Welsh slate?
Yes – it is careful work and exactly the kind we like. The right flashing kit plus hand-dressed slate gives a finish that looks factory-made.
Which areas do you cover?
