Choose roof windows and enjoy light flooding into your home, no matter what floor of the house. Did you know that roof windows bring in up to three times more natural light than a vertical window of the same size? These windows face the sky, causing light to seep in and transform the look and feel of a room, creating a bright and airy space. Plus, you can find all the accessories you need to control the light flow in one convenient place.

Make your home inviting with the help of windows in the roof. Whether a loft conversion or the kitchen extension, roof windows create an inviting and liveable space. This is especially down to both enhanced ventilation improving airflow and the excellent insulation from glazed windows which will keep the room at the ideal temperature in every season. In this selection, you can also find accessories like roof window blinds and window flashing for a full setup.
A roof window is a type of window that’s set into the slope of a pitched roof, flush to the roof. They can usually be opened inside a room at either a centre-pivot or top-hung configuration.
It depends on your style preferences, budget and special requirements. We stock several reputable roof window brands at Wickes, including the market-leading VELUX and very popular Keylite.
Which roof window size you should opt for depends on how much light you want to enter your home, and what your roof will allow. The glazed portion of a roof window should be approximately 10-15% of the room’s floor area, but this can vary if a darker setting. It should also fit between your rafters.
Not usually as roof windows are classed as permitted development, as long as they don’t protrude more than 150mm beyond your roof’s slope and aren’t higher than the most extended area of your roof.
