VELUX replacement technical knowledge for South Shields
We plan every South Shields replacement around the Victorian and modern housing found in the property, the roof pitch and the glazing, operation and finish the customer wants.
- 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.
- Timber, white polyurethane, centre-pivot, top-hung, manual, electric and solar-powered options can be matched to the room and roof type.
- The existing flashing and weathering should normally be replaced at the same time as the window to maintain a watertight seal.
