Sun tunnel installation in Cheltenham is ideal for hallways, bathrooms and utility rooms in the Victorian developments typical of local homes. We choose the right tunnel type for the roof and ceiling position.

What happens during a sun tunnel installation in Cheltenham?

A sun tunnel installation in Cheltenham is planned around the Victorian developments found in the property and the conditions it will be exposed to. We choose rigid or flexible tubing accordingly.

  • The ceiling diffuser is installed in the room below and sealed neatly.
  • We check the roof covering, rafter positions and ceiling location to plan the route.
  • We choose rigid or flexible tubing based on the straightness of the route and the light level needed.

Sun tunnel options for Cheltenham homes

We explain the options during a survey so you can choose the best setup for your property.

  • Electric and solar-powered diffusers can add a small light boost for very dark rooms.
  • Rigid sun tunnels give the brightest light where the roof dome is almost directly above the ceiling.
  • Tunnels can be 35 cm, 45 cm or 60 cm in diameter to suit the room size.
  • Flat or pitched roof domes are chosen to match the existing roof covering.

Sun tunnel installation know-how for Cheltenham

Our Cheltenham sun tunnel surveys check the roof covering, loft space and ceiling position to choose the most efficient route.

  • Longer tunnel runs and multiple bends reduce light output, so we design the shortest practical route.
  • Flexible tunnels are used when the route around roof timbers is not straight.
  • Solar-powered and electric diffusers are available for hard-to-reach rooms.
