Dormer Windows Services in London
What is a dormer?
A dormer is a kind of roof window usually set vertically on a sloping roof. A Dormer comes with its own roof which could be arched, flat, ornamented or pointed. They can be built into the roof or a wall in various sizes, styles and shapes.
Dormer windows were first built as a way to draw light into the attics of large cottages. Typically set on the roof of long sidewalls, dormer windows light up the central part of a roof space that cannot be reached by lights coming from gable-ended casements.
Dormer windows are often better than skylights because they provide views of the outdoors like a normal window, which makes for a greater sense of space. They are also great for creating rooms in the roof of homes where it would otherwise be difficult due to headroom, or in a property that is single-storey.
