Rooflights can be used with roofs of all descriptions. It can be a good way to let in more natural light and make a room brighter and the flexibility that can be achieve with a rooflight is amazing. It’s entirely possible to use a rooflight with a pitched roof, as long as you select the right type.

Usually a pitched roof will require a flat glass rooflight that can be fitted into it. The size will all depend on the roof space that is available and how flat it is – the roof can be pitched but it still needs to be a flat surface for the glass. You can also use a suntube if the roof is an awkward shape. This will enter through the roof and direct light into a room, through reflective tubing. Consider suntubes if you aren’t able to have other types of rooflight but would still like to incorporate some extra natural light.
