I’m posting this video because I wanted to show how even us DIYers can tackle a daunting job like this – as long as we do the research before hand, and make sure we’re in compliance with planning and building regulations.

This video leads you through my installation step by step, and I show you a couple of mistakes I made so you don’t have to make them yourself! So take a look at the following links, and start researching your velux installation!
