Skylight for flat ish roof lean to

[princeperch]

I've got a typical 70s lean to type thing on the back of my place. It's quite useful but needs a bit of a lift.

I want to get a skylight type thing to put on the roof. My mate who is very handy will help me install it.

All the ones I've seen though say you need a minimum pitch of 15 degrees and a maximum pitch of 60 degrees.

The pitch of the roof where it will go is about 10 degrees.

Would it be a disaster if I installed it if the pitch isn't at the minimum requirements ? The alternative is a get a roof dome but I don't want one of those because so,e of them can't be opened and they are considerably more expensive!

Ta all

If you can hold off a few weeks, I will probably be stripping a load of good units off on a school in Tottenham, if you can get there to collect, you can take your pick. I think there are some 1200x600 and 1000x1000 there.

No cost. The one in your link is total cack, it will sweat log a pig.

Nice one - ill certainly take you up on that in exchange for some beer- and take your advice about the cheapo one I linked to above

Brilliant - just what I'm after. Let me know when you're on site and I'll contact you to make the arrangements..

Roofer - was going to Pm you about this but don't think you can receive pms (unless I'm being dim)..

[princeperch]

that's really kind of you - thanks. drop me a line and I'll come and pick it up..

Cool - the round skylights/ domes look interesting!

Hi roofer- I'd be more than happy to collect Friday if the bigger ones are ready by then , thanks again for sorting this out, very decent of you.

Also my mate wouldn't mind one of those solar tubes (or two) and I can collect for him. He's more than happy to give you some beer for them but like me, doesn't want you to get in the st or take any risks in helping us out for these. You might just be binning them for all I know otherwise but don't want you to get in any trouble for helping us if its from a school and they might be seeking to flog them themselves!
