Loft Skylights & Velux, Jarrow

Adding light to a Jarrow loft, landing or bathroom is usually a one-day job. Cut the rafters, trim, dry-line the reveal, drop the frame in with the correct flashing and leave it weather-tight the same evening. We're regularly on roofs close to the A19, out around Bede Industrial Estate, through Primrose and Monkton.

  • 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

Flashing kits explained

EDW for interlocking tiles, EDN for slate or thin profiles, EDJ for recessed installs. The kit is not optional — using the wrong one voids the manufacturer warranty and is the single most common reason we get called back to fix somebody else's job. Industrial-era brick chimneys are extremely common — most need re-pointing or capping within their first 40 years. We still uprate fixings on exposed elevations.

Access & scaffold in Jarrow

We work off the A19 corridor daily. Single-storey lofts usually need a tower; two-storey needs a small scaffold — included in the quote, no surprise add-ons.

Velux installation in Jarrow — 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 Jarrow?+

Yes — NE32 in full, plus Hebburn, South Shields, Wallsend.
