VELUX Window Installation in Cirencester

As the capital of the Cotswolds, Cirencester is a town of honey-coloured stone, steep slate and tile roofs, and handsome period homes around the Market Place and Cecily Hill. It is also growing, with newer family housing out towards Chesterton and Stratton. Whichever your roof, a properly fitted VELUX window is the most popular way to bring daylight in from above — and it is the job we are asked for most across the area.

The fit makes the window

VELUX engineer a superb roof window, but on Cirencester’s stone and slate roofs the result comes down to the installation. A square opening, the correct flashing kit for natural stone tiles or slate, insulated reveals and a fully watertight finish are what keep the window working sweetly for years. We install roof windows every week across the Cotswolds, so those details are routine — and every job carries a written guarantee on our workmanship.

The right VELUX for the room

• Centre-pivot — the dependable loft choice, easy to open and clean, ideal for bedrooms and offices.
• Top-hung — opens outward for a clear Cotswold view and more headroom beneath.
• Electric INTEGRA — remote opening with a rain sensor for windows you cannot easily reach.
• Solar-powered — the same convenience with no wiring; see our solar-powered skylight installation.

We install VELUX products alongside other quality brands, advising on glazing and blinds to suit how each room faces.

Conservation & the Cotswold roofscape

Central Cirencester is a conservation area dense with listed buildings, and even outside it the Cotswold roofscape matters. Roof windows in the plane of the roof often fall under permitted development, but conservation and listed status can change that — frequently pointing to a conservation-style VELUX with a central glazing bar and a recessed finish that sits low and quiet on a stone roof. We always check your property’s status before quoting.

New installs and replacements

We fit new VELUX windows into loft conversions and pitched-roof extensions, and we replace older units that have misted, draughted or jammed. We are installs-and-replacements specialists, not a repair service — where a window has failed, a clean replacement is the lasting answer. See our skylight replacement service.

Indicative cost

Price depends on the unit, the glazing and access, so we give a fixed written quote after a survey. As an indicative 2026 guide for a supplied-and-installed VELUX window:

• Manual centre-pivot (like-for-like swap): from approximately £900–£1,600
• New install into an existing roof: from approximately £1,300–£2,200
• Electric or solar opening unit: from approximately £1,500–£2,600

These are indicative ranges only — your real price is a fixed written quote after a survey. Roof type, glazing upgrades, blinds and access affect the figure, and we set it all out clearly before any work starts.
