What happens during a VELUX replacement in Watford?

We work through each stage methodically to protect the property and ensure the new window is weather-tight.

  • The old VELUX window is removed, the flashing is stripped back and the structural opening is checked.

What types of VELUX can we replace in Watford?

In Watford, we replace older GGL, GGU, GHL and GPL models with current equivalents that suit the modern developments and the roof covering.

  • Older GGL, GGU, GHL and GPL models can often be matched to a direct modern equivalent.
  • Manual, electric and solar-powered operation can be chosen during the survey.
  • Different flashing kits are used for slate, plain tile and interlocking tile roofs.

VELUX replacement technical knowledge for Watford

VELUX replacement in Watford requires matching the new unit to the existing opening and choosing the right flashing for the modern developments and the roof covering.

  • The existing flashing and weathering should normally be replaced at the same time as the window to maintain a watertight seal.
  • Upgrading from manual to solar or electric operation may require additional controls or wiring, which we discuss before installation.
  • We identify the existing VELUX code from the identification plate on the sash. Many older sizes have direct current-generation replacements.
  • Slate and concrete/interlocking tile roofs need different flashing kits. We specify the right one for the roofing material and pitch.
