Roof Windows in Bromley
Roof window installation is the supply and fitting of a pitched-roof window — commonly known by the Velux brand name regardless of manufacturer — into an existing or new roof structure, including trimming the rafters, fitting the flashing kit, and making the surrounding roof covering weathertight.
In Bromley, that covers Beckenham, Orpington, West Wickham, Chislehurst, Petts Wood, Hayes, Bickley. Bromley is one of the greenest London boroughs, with a historic High Street and residential areas ranging from Beckenham and Orpington's Victorian and interwar housing to the more rural character around Chislehurst and Hayes, close to the Kent border and within easy reach of our Sevenoaks and Tunbridge Wells teams.

Property styles in Bromley
Bromley's housing stock includes Victorian and Edwardian terraces and villas near the town centre and in Beckenham, substantial interwar detached and semi-detached houses across Orpington, Petts Wood and Bickley, and larger period properties around Chislehurst and Hayes, many on generous plots suited to rear and double-storey extensions.
Planning considerations
Bromley Council (London Borough of Bromley) is the local planning authority. Chislehurst and parts of Beckenham and Hayes are conservation areas, and much of the borough's southern and eastern edge is designated Metropolitan Green Belt, which restricts new buildings and substantial additions beyond normal permitted development limits.
