Fitting a Velux window to a tiled roof can be a challenging task, but with the right guidance, you can achieve professional-looking results. At A1 Roofing Bradford, our team of experienced roofers has years of expertise in installing Velux windows on tiled roofs. In this article, we will walk you through the process of fitting a Velux window to a tiled roof, highlighting the essential steps and tips to consider.

Before you start the installation process, it's crucial to select the right Velux window for your tiled roof. Consider factors such as the size of the window, the type of glazing, and the frame material. Our team at A1 Roofing Bradford can help you choose the perfect Velux window that suits your needs and budget. We offer a wide range of Velux windows, including centre pivot, top hung, and conservation windows.

To ensure a successful installation, it's essential to prepare the roof properly. Our team will inspect the roof to identify any damaged or missing tiles, which will need to be replaced before the installation. We will also check the roof's structural integrity to ensure it can support the weight of the Velux window. If necessary, we will install additional support battens to provide extra stability.

Installing a Velux window on a tiled roof involves several steps:

1. Mark the centre point of the window on the roof, using a pencil to draw a line along the batten.
2. Remove the tiles along the marked line, taking care not to damage the surrounding tiles.
3. Cut the batten to the required length, using a saw or a hacksaw.
4. Install the flashing kit, which includes the underfelt collar, the soaker tray, and the flashing apron.
5. Place the Velux window frame into position, ensuring it's level and secure.
6. Use screws to fix the frame to the batten, making sure they're tightened securely.
7. Replace the tiles around the window, ensuring they're securely fixed to the batten.
