For this particular size there is no ready made flat roof Velux kit hence why they have to manufacture it on site. Velux advised to lift the window only and leave the rafters as they are. However, they now say it is in house decision how to make it waterproof and they don't have anything to...

An architect designed it, to be at 15 degrees. Builders didn't get the correct pitch as there is a window obstruction. We originally wanted flat roof. Anyway, the architect did the loft and we trusted him. This is where we are now as Velux insisted on having it raised. I start thinking we should...

Hi We had our roof retiled with Centurion tiles and only the Veluxes were lifted to 15 degrees. The roofers had to make their own lead work around them and now there is ingress of water between tiles and top of the windows. There are small bumps on each top side of the Veluxes which prevents...

I was searching the net about our problem and came across a membrane which provides first barrier waterproofing- Klober Permo Extreme RS SK2. Not sure if someone have used it but it seems that it is designed for use on pitch roof above 10 degrees where the tile cannot get the right pitch. We...

Hi You may not be around the forum anymore but if you are, please would you share your experience with the SANDTOFT 20/20 tiles and Veluxes. We have the same roof that needs repair (new roof but wrong angle and tiles) and the architect recommends the ones you have used. Please email me back if...

Long story short- the pitch on the new extension was supposed to be above 15 degrees, it is below it- about 13-14. We have Wessex tile on it and 3 Velux windows (not in a row) and there is a hip. It looks like we have to change the tiles- the architect suggests that we go for Sandtoft 20/20...

Hello Newbie to the forum and hope to get some advice. We will be putting a new system in place with Vaillant EcoTECH 630 system boiler, Megaflo 250L. The thing is that I want a weather compensator (as I get it it's best to be from the same brand as the boiler) and chose VRC470F. However...
