Roof Window Installation — Gateshead
Roof windows go wrong for the same three reasons every time in Gateshead: wrong flashing kit for the tile profile, upstand too short, or the frame set into a rotten batten. Our fit corrects all three at once. We're regularly on roofs close to the A1 western bypass, out around Team Valley Trading Estate, through Low Fell and Felling.
- Correct flashing kit for your exact tile or slate profile
- Full lead upstand or GRP soaker where the roof geometry needs it
- Rafters trimmed properly with load-bearing trimmers, not just cuts
- Internal reveal boarded, taped and ready for skim
- One-day fit on most single-window jobs; two days for triple installs
- Manufacturer 10-year Velux warranty on the unit

Velux installation in Gateshead — FAQs
How long does a Velux install take?+
Single window in an existing rafter bay: one day. Add a trimmer or fit two side-by-side: two days. Triple bank: three days including internal reveal.
Do you handle the internal plastering?+
We board and tape the reveal so it's ready to skim. Our plasterer can quote for the skim if you want a single supplier, or your own decorator can pick it up.
Will it leak?+
Not if the flashing kit matches the tile profile and the upstand is dressed properly. We pressure-hose test every install before we sign off — you'll see us do it.
Do you install across all of Gateshead?+
Yes — NE8 – NE11 in full, plus Newcastle, Birtley.
