📞 Call Now: 0172 223 9611Velux window installation and flashing repair across Ringwood and surrounding BH24 villages. New roof light installation, EDW and BDX flashing replacement, leaking Velux diagnosis — and planning advice for properties in Ringwood's conservation areas or with permitted development restrictions.
The standard EDW flashing kit has a service life of 10–15 years in average UK conditions. Given New Forest boundary, sheltered but highest humidity in coverage area and highest annual rainfall and sustained humidity in coverage area; fastest moss growth, properties in Ringwood on exposed elevations or south-west-facing slopes — especially given moss accumulation faster than any other location; New Forest fringe EPDM preferred — experience shorter EDW service life. We recommend the upgraded BDX or BFX flashing kit on all exposed positions in the BH24 area for extended service life.
Most Velux installations fall within permitted development for Ringwood properties and do not require planning permission, subject to standard conditions (not projecting more than 150mm, not on principal highway-facing elevation). Properties within Ringwood's conservation areas or listed buildings have additional restrictions — we check the planning position for your specific property before any installation is confirmed.

📞 0172 223 9611Rooflights leak at the flashing kit, not usually the glass — so a leaking Velux is often a fitting or flashing problem rather than a faulty window.
When it is not the answer: A leaking rooflight often needs only a new flashing kit, not a whole new window — we'll check before quoting a replacement. Read the full guide.
We check the window, the flashing kit and the surrounding tiles or slates.
Itemised quote for a new flashing kit, a like-for-like swap, or a new install.
Usually a single day per rooflight.
We fit the window and manufacturer flashing kit, integrating it with the covering and underlay so it's fully weathertight.
Internal reveal made good if agreed, site cleared, guarantee handed over.
| Job | Typical duration |
|---|---|
| New flashing kit only | Half a day |
| Like-for-like replacement | 1 day |
| New rooflight install | 1–2 days |
| Multiple rooflights | 2–3 days |
We keep the opening covered and weathertight at all times; heavy rain can pause a mid-swap.
Rooflight work runs from scaffold or a tower for safe access to the slope. Scaffold is specified for: new installs, multiple units, or steep slopes - always itemised in your written quote, never a hidden extra, and we arrange it.
Historic centre with Georgian and Victorian stock, modern estates around it, New Forest edge. Pavement scaffold and skip permits go through New Forest District Council; allow a few working days on streets like the older streets around the Market Place where space is tight.
