What’s an
Upstand?
An upstand is the base that supports your skylight, ensuring it's securely mounted and angled correctly. It keeps water out, enhances insulation, and helps your skylight perform efficiently, making it essential for a weather-tight, energy-efficient roof.
Do I Really Need
an Upstand?
Yes, an upstand is essential. It ensures proper skylight installation, prevents leaks, and improves energy efficiency. Without it, you risk drafts, leaks, and structural damage. An upstand is key to your skylight’s long-term reliability.
Can I Build
My Own Upstand?
Building an upstand yourself is possible but challenging. It requires precision and proper materials, and mistakes can lead to insulation issues, leaks, or a poor fit. Prebuilt upstands are easier and more reliable, so it’s usually best to choose a professional option.
How to
Choose an Upstand?
When choosing an upstand, ensure it's well-insulated, compatible with your roof type and skylight size, easy to install, and made from durable materials for long-term performance.
