Expert Velux Attic Installations

At Treaty Carpentry Limerick, we specialise in professional Velux attic installations to convert your loft space into a light‑filled, functional living area. From free initial consultation to completed project, our team ensures exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Why Choose Velux Windows for Your Attic Conversion?

Velux roof windows are the top choice for attic conversions due to:

Maximised Natural Light – Velux windows flood your loft with daylight, making it bright and welcoming

Enhanced Ventilation – Centre‑pivot and top‑hung vents allow fresh air even when closed

Energy Efficiency – Thermo‑tech glazed models can reduce heat loss by up to 115%

Cost-Effective Conversions – Velux attic conversions avoid structural dormers, making them more affordable than full extensions

Our Velux Attic Installation Process

1. Initial Site Survey & Design

We begin by measuring your attic’s dimensions, roof pitch (ideal: 15–90°), and checking structural viability. This helps determine the ideal number and placement of Velux windows

.

2. Permissions & Building Regulations

Velux rear roof window installation is usually exempt from planning permission in Ireland, yet full attic conversions into habitable rooms require Building Regulation compliance (fire safety, insulation, escape routes), atticplanning.ie.

We coordinate with structural engineers and obtain your Certificate of Compliance upon completion.

3. Professional Installation

Our installation follows VELUX-certified best practices, including flashing installation and airtight seals.

Typical installations are completed within a day per window.

4. Finishing Touches

Interior linings, insulation around window frames, plastering, and trim are handled by our skilled carpenters.

We offer bespoke storage, stairs, and flooring to integrate your loft into the rest of the home seamlessly.
