Complete Guide to Velux Window Installation in Manchester

Velux windows — also known as roof windows or skylights — are one of the most popular home improvements across Manchester. They transform dark loft rooms and attic spaces by flooding them with natural light. At 0161Roofing.com, we supply and fit all Velux window sizes and ranges across Greater Manchester.

Why Install a Velux Window?

  • Natural light: Velux windows admit up to twice as much light as a similarly-sized vertical window — critical in Manchester’s grey winters.
  • Loft conversion value: A properly converted loft with Velux windows typically adds 15–20% to a Manchester property’s value.
  • Ventilation: Opening Velux windows provide excellent ventilation, reducing condensation and improving air quality.
  • Planning permission: In most cases, Velux installation does not require planning permission, making it one of the quickest property improvements available.

Velux Window Types

Centre-Pivot Windows (GGL/GPU)

The most popular Velux type. The sash pivots around a central axis, making it easy to clean from inside. Available from 55x78cm up to 114x118cm.

Top-Hung Windows (GGU/GHU)

Open at the bottom, providing a clear view and better ventilation. Suited to rooms where the window is at a low position relative to the floor.

Electric and Solar INTEGRA Windows

Open and close at the touch of a button. Can be connected to rain sensors that automatically close when rain is detected. Ideal for hard-to-reach windows.

Do You Need Planning Permission?

In most cases, installing a Velux roof window in Manchester does not require planning permission under Permitted Development Rights, provided the window does not protrude more than 150mm above the roof plane and does not face a highway. Properties in conservation areas (such as parts of Didsbury, Chorlton, and Saddleworth) may require consent — we can advise before work begins.
