Local Reigate Considerations for Sun Tunnel Installation

We install VELUX sun tunnels in Reigate and the surrounding area to bring natural daylight into rooms with no external wall. Rigid or flexible tunnels are chosen based on the roof and ceiling route.

What happens during a sun tunnel installation in Reigate?

For Reigate homes, we survey the roof covering, rafter positions and ceiling before fitting the roof dome, reflective tube and ceiling diffuser.

  • We check the roof covering, rafter positions and ceiling location to plan the route.
  • A small roof dome is fitted on the roof and a reflective tube is routed to the ceiling.
  • The work area is cleaned and the system is checked before we leave.

Sun tunnel options for Reigate homes

For Reigate homes, we choose between rigid and flexible sun tunnels based on the Victorian housing of the home, roof pitch and the distance between the dome and ceiling diffuser.

  • Electric and solar-powered diffusers can add a small light boost for very dark rooms.
  • Flat or pitched roof domes are chosen to match the existing roof covering.
  • Flexible tunnels work around obstructions in the loft, though they lose a little more light.

Sun tunnel installation know-how for Reigate

In Reigate, the choice between rigid and flexible sun tunnels depends on the distance and direction between the roof dome and the ceiling diffuser.

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