Velux and Roof Window Installation
Acute Homes fits Velux and Keylite roof windows across Oxfordshire with certified installation, factory flashing kits and careful thermal detailing to avoid cold bridges. This specialist service is tailored for loft conversions, stairwells and tired roofs where natural light and ventilation are the priority. Installations come with audit-ready paperwork and local, on-the-ground knowledge in Abingdon, Oxford and surrounding towns.
— Our Process
How It Works
Site survey & positioning
A trained installer surveys roof pitch, rafters and insulation, recommends optimum window size and position for daylight and ventilation, and confirms flashing kit choice.
Certified installation
Velux-certified installers cut the aperture, install frame and factory flashing or Keylite system, and secure weatherproofing to the roof membrane and tiles.
Thermal detailing & handover
We complete insulation continuity, vapour control, internal finishing to a decorator-ready standard, issue compliance paperwork and explain ventilation, blinds and maintenance.
