Local Colchester Considerations for Velux Replacement
A VELUX replacement in Colchester is the right choice when the frame has failed, repairs are becoming frequent, or you want to change the size, operation or internal finish. We match the new unit to the existing opening wherever possible.
What happens during a VELUX replacement in Colchester?
A VELUX replacement in Colchester is carefully planned around the existing opening, the roof covering and the finish inside the room.
- The old VELUX window is removed, the flashing is stripped back and the structural opening is checked.
- We identify the existing window size and code, then check the opening is sound and the flashing can be replaced.
- The old window is removed from site and the work area is cleaned before we leave.
VELUX replacement technical knowledge for Colchester
VELUX replacement in Colchester requires matching the new unit to the existing opening and choosing the right flashing for the Victorian developments and the roof covering.
- Slate and concrete/interlocking tile roofs need different flashing kits. We specify the right one for the roofing material and pitch.
- We identify the existing VELUX code from the identification plate on the sash. Many older sizes have direct current-generation replacements.
- The existing flashing and weathering should normally be replaced at the same time as the window to maintain a watertight seal.
- A like-for-like replacement can often be fitted without enlarging the structural opening, which keeps internal decoration intact.
