  1. What Do Homeowners Expect from Velux Windows Fitters? Installing Velux windows can bring in more natural light, improve ventilation, and enhance energy efficiency. The process of fitting these specialised roof windows requires professional skill and experience. Hiring qualified Velux windows fitters ensures that the job is done safely, correctly, and to the highest standards. Please check out this comprehensive homeowner’s checklist to know what to expect from a Velux windows fitter: Finding the Right Installer You need to research and find a qualified Velux windows fitter. You should choose a Velux-certified installer because they have undergone specific training on Velux products and installation techniques. You can request multiple quotes from at least two or three installers to compare pricing, expertise, and service. Before hiring, you need to check customer reviews, see previous projects, and confirm their qualifications and insurance coverage.

  2. What Do Homeowners Expect from Velux Windows Fitters? Initial Consultation and Product Selection Once you’ve chosen a fitter, you can expect an initial consultation. The certified fitter will discuss your project goals, including the number of windows, placement, and style preference. They will assess the structural suitability of your roof and suggest the best Velux window model and glazing type for your requirements. This consultation can help you know the clear expectations for timelines, costs, and any preparations needed. Preparing for Installation Before work starts, the fitter will prepare the workspace to protect your home from dust and debris. They can remove blinds, curtains, or window treatments from the installation area. These professionals can clear furniture and ensure easy access to the roof and window openings to facilitate a smooth job.

  4. What Do Homeowners Expect from Velux Windows Fitters? Installation Process Velux window installation generally follows eight steps, like choosing the spot, removing tiles or slates, cutting the roof opening, fitting the frame with proper insulation and flashing, installing the window sash, securing the interior lining to prevent moisture, final plaster and paint work, and cleaning the site. The fitter will carefully manage every step to avoid leaks, drafts, or damage. Timeline and Access Most Velux window installations are done within a day or two, which depends on complexity and the number of windows. The fitter may need scaffolding or safe roof access for multiple windows or hard-to-reach areas. You should confirm these logistical details beforehand to avoid surprises.

  5. What Do Homeowners Expect from Velux Windows Fitters? Waste Disposal Many fitters add the removal and responsible disposal of old windows and packaging materials in their service. But you must clarify this upfront. You might have options to recycle or sell old windows if they are in good condition. Final Inspection and Testing After installation, the fitter will test every window for smooth operation, locking mechanisms, and proper sealing. Every homeowner should perform a visual check both inside and outside for any gaps, drafts, or cosmetic issues. You must address concerns immediately before signing off. Maintenance Tips A professional fitter should provide advice on maintaining your Velux windows to prolong their life and ensure efficiency. Regular cleaning, checking seals, and periodic inspections can prevent common issues like drafts or moisture ingress.
