How to fit a VELUX window. VELUX window installation. VELUX top hung window & flashing kit install.

In this video I show you in full detail how to install a Velux top hung window with slate flashing kit. I go through the whole process including how to build the structural frame, how to fit the window sash, how to make your own felt collar, how to fit the flashing kit with associated slate work and how to fit the window. At the end of the video I show how to adjust the tension of the window springs, how to disengage the window springs and how to operate the window. In this example I use the GPL MK04 3070 (78cm x 98cm) top hung Velux window, and the EDL MK04 0000 slate flashing kit.

Probably the best instructional video on KZbin. I have used this twice now for CK04 and MK series. Isn't it amazing how people go out their way to help each other. Faith is back in humanity :-)

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

Glad you found it useful and thanks for watching 👍

[@democracyforall]

@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE You are very good thanks for it but how will you do this if it was metal roof??

[@daviddaniels9217]

You Sir are a Natural Born Teacher. A most excellent instructional video which you have clearly taken great pains to make. THANK YOU.

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

No problem! Although teaching, filming and doing in an open roof when the rain is coming did give me a twitchy bum!

[@DerekTJ]

This....is the gold standard of realistic installation videos. Superb, and thank you!

Thanks for your feedback 👍

[@yipnpaulshelpweboughtavillage]

Pouse, we can’t thank you enough for this tutorial, we are starting to renovate a small hamlet in Normandy, France and this Velux installation vid has been priceless, your explanations etc are second to none, thank you so much, loving your work. Yip and Paul from Channel 4’s ‘Help We Bought A Village’

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

Glad you found the video useful 👍 I'll confess, I've not watched 'Help we bought a village' yet, but I'll be sure to check it out. I wonder if the velux will feature on channel 4?! Best of luck with your village!

[@nickhtaylor]

It's the lessons learned from experience of previous installs that are so extra helpful. This is a big job and you don't want those sort of surprises halfway through. Great angles, nice explanations, very helpful. Appreciate it!

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

Thank you, appreciate the feedback. Best of luck with your installation.

[@duncanwhite3412]

Always thought this was a daunting task. But with your clear instructions and real time explanations I followed and fitted as I went. (Watched the whole thing twice first). Few adjustments as I was using felt shingle tiles. But it all went smoothly. A huge thank you to you for your time and effort to film this.

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

Really good work well done. It's very rewarding to hear so many people say the video has helped. Thanks for the feedback 👍

[@brendendale2616]

Thank you for taking the time to so thoroughly explain all aspects of the installation and operation of the window, your tutorial has demystified a complex job. Take care and stay safe, cheers from Australia 🇦🇺👍🤗

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

Thank you Brenden for the feedback and thanks for watching!

[@Noaxe_Tegrinde]

Very useful and practical video. THANK YOU! Not always possible to follow the manuals. I twisted and turned regarding the use of the Velux underfelt collar as my windows are near the ridge and hip corner so will have to be inventive, but went for it at the end and will adapt as necessary. I installed two Colt Rotos around 30yrs ago and they need replacing. I'm 77yrs now and the wife didn't want me to do it. Luckily the roofer who was going to do the job in Dec (to be fair it was due to the horrendous amount of rain we had in November) wasn't able to do it. So this has given me the chance to make sure it will be done properly and save £1500 too. If you do stuff yourself you can always take a little extra time to do things 100% that the tradesman can't afford to do. So thank you for this. BTW, The JJRoofing videos are very good too.

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

Thanks for the feedback, hope it went well and you didn't fall off the roof! 👍

[@slaneysider106]

Thanks for that Pal, it’s the disengagement of the spring that i really needed to see , i made the boo boo of opening it fully while taking it out of the box , i was able to take the window out of the frame and fit the frame but when it came to the top flashing i couldn’t fit it until the springs were disengaged . 👍

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

No problem. I thought that might catch someone out! Thanks for watching.

[@davelee9791]

Great instruction with the attention to detail that user manuals can never give...Your loft conversion series has inspired me to make a start on mine.

[@lozp2273]

Yeah great video mate. Hit the nail on the head perfectly regarding the snags you run into when fitting in situ.... Doing a fair amount of replacements at the moment on all roof types, using varying brands of window, and there is ALWAYS something that isn't as straight forward as the instructions attempt to make it look, so this video and similar ones are extremely helpful to tradesmen of all skill levels, so thanks alot!

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

Just wanted to say a very big thank you for this amazing video mate, it helped loads! We finally bought and installed a UK04 over the weekend. Glad I took my time to get the roof framing square, because we had the BDX insulation collar - If anyone buys this they should definitely add the full 60x45mm extra space as it becomes a very snug fit with little to no wiggle room to square the frame up. My neighbour gave me a hand with the installation, we kept this video on our phones to guide us through each step of the way! Not an easy job, but well worth the effort! Think I'll stick to installing Microsoft Windows from now on 😀 Thanks again mate!

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

Glad you found the video useful. My installation probably isn't perfect but no two roofs are the same, and after 4 years of being installed, all 3 of my velux windows haven't had so much as a trickle in all sorts of Welsh weather!

Nice video! I really enjoyed the good explanations and showing! Only downside is the audio. Some of the times I have a hard time hearing the speak, and in some clips it's very quieter where other clips are loud. Recommend you'd use a lavalier microphone (they come cheep these days) even with Bluetooth, and then leveling/evening out/normalizing the sounds throughout the videos in post.

I have since bought a better camera and lavalier mic so hopefully some improvement for future videos. Thanks for the feedback.

To use the centre pivot you just release the top handle and pull down? You use the bottom handle and push up for the top hung. Is that what you're doing?

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

Sorry, not sure what you mean, a metre of what, roof membrane? My understanding is that the flashing kit should work on it's own but I guess you could run a bit of membrane around it as I dis just to stop high winds pushing any water through. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

You drilled those holes into the slates too close to the waterline of the slates above. Also there should be a batten to support the top flashing to stop it sagging. Pretty good video

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

Thanks for the info but it's all good years later. Not so much as a weep. Thanks for watching.

[@joefowler9600]

Really good video, im about to fit my first velux in a new small extension slate roof. I haven't felt and battened the roof yet, would you fit the velux frame before felting? Then felt around it neatly and fit the battens so the slates work with the height of the velux? Im thinking that it may be easier to do a good job on the felt around the window if the battens weren't in the way. Any input would be appreciated 👍

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

You can do it either way to be honest. If you feel it's easier to line it up by doing frame first then go for it but you need your battens to line up right with facias also to get your slate overhang right. Maybe batten up to velux height in roof, then fit your frame and carry on with battens? I'm not a professional just a DIYer so there may be better ways to this. Best of luck with it and thanks for watching!

It probably depends on your concrete tiles. If they're flat then maybe as the soakers will work. If they're shaped, then you may need the flexible flashing kit. Best to check on the velux website. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching. 👍

I have the top and bottom plaster ingoes dropping down vertical at the bottom and horizontal at the top. So your bridle should be set further down and further up to help air circulation. And give more headroom and more manoeuvring space at the bottom. Just a small detail..

Hi Pouse, great video as always. I'm in the middle of my loft extension and about to install the velux. I am unable to get the vertical trimmings from gable to roofline due to the position of the purlins and collar. Do you think it will be sufficient to do the verticals from collar to roofline? Thanks in advance.

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

I honestly couldn't say really as it depends on size of window, span of your rafters etc, but on a small window, if you brace a horizontal trimmer from one rafter to the next, then put a shorter timber vertically between the trimmers, that will probably work. When you say gable to roofline, i'm not entirely sure what you mean sorry.

Super video mate! We have a composite slate too, are these easy to fit into an existing roof? Cheers

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

No different to this really, the only difficulty is getting on roof at start and getting first few slates out. You need to remove them from top down which will expose slates below to free them using a slate ripper and hammer. Prob best to buy a pack of new slates before you start as you will definitely crack a few. They're only about 80p each. But once you have a hole big enough to stick your body through, you can cut the felt and do the rest from inside as you saw me do. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching and best of luck with it.

[@voodoomotion5855]

Thanks mate, just watched your slate replacement video and put a ripper in my basket. Must replace headers above our rear windows first so hopefully do the window before taking scaff down. Weather still crap here near Swansea so won't be at it for couple months. Thanks again!

Hello, nice video I have to change the left projection spring because it is faulty. I would like to change it without removing the sash. Does your spirit level method work? What is the size or model of your spirit level you put ? is this dangerous? of course the right spring will be engaged. Thank you.

[@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE]

I can't say whether this is safe as such because it could always be knocked out. My gut feeling is if one spring is on place you should be OK but I would suggest a length of timber propped from the floor would be more secure. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

[@lldavid4816]

If the next soaker covers it I'm sure you'll be fine, plus your slates cover that also. Best of luck and thanks for the feedback.
