I have put two 1600 x 940mm roof windows onto a 10 degree pitch roof. I have used 5 degree upstands to meet the required pitch. It looks terrible, on top of the 150mm upstand, the additional pitch completely destroys the aesthetics of the build.
As far as I know, there are 3 options:
a, Drop the roof windows down to 10 degrees and lose warrantee from roofers and Wickes roof light.
b, take out the flat windows and replace with dome windows, which will cost a fortune
c, Deal with it.
Can anyone advise?? Rapid answers would be much appreciated...
If I seal the windows to prevent them from opening and then seal it further with mastic etc, will that safeguard the roof windows against leakage if I drop them down to 10 degrees????
