Pitched roof + raked ceiling

With no roof cavity to travel through, the glass reads directly in the ceiling plane. It is the cleanest result visually, and it puts the emphasis on the ceiling line, the reveal and the plaster finish.

Installed with a builder's eye for detail.

We are not simply cutting a hole in a roof and installing a window. We consider structure, roof integration, waterproofing, ceiling finishes, plasterwork, natural light, overall appearance and how the work will read in years to come.

Standard solution or completely custom.

Custom glass skylights, glass roof windows, operable glazing, skylights on concrete hobs, bespoke configurations and non-standard sizes, for applications outside a standard product range.
