September 25, 20242 yr Hopefully a simple one. I have Velux to fit, sized perfectly to fit between the rafters if I cut one in the middle. All very standard. However, the annoying thing is that the clay pantiles don't line up evenly with the flashing. So I am thinking that I should cut two rafters to get the window in exactly the right place. Its either that, or I have to cut the pantiles. Does that seem sensible? I'll be doubling up the rafters on either side and the trimmers.
September 25, 20242 yr Author Basically this image from the Facro guide, but two rafters cut instead of one. And everything doubled up, bolted etc. All to get the pantiles aligned like in the pics. If I don't cut the second rafter, I'm about half a pantile out of alignment. Edited September 25, 20242 yr by goodbyegti
September 26, 20242 yr I always line up velux,s with the roof tiles, never heard or seen tile and a half pan tiles 🤷♂️
September 27, 20242 yr Author Thanks both. Tile and a half makes good sense if you could get one. I hadn't thought of that. I think I'll cut the two rafters and get the tiles lined up.
