    Hi All

    Myself and my wife have decided to convert the attic space with our growing family. I lost my job back in July so due to this we have tovwatch every penny. I am going to try and do as much of it as possible with theguidance of my father who is a builder and he will help me but he is near retirement age so dont want to pressure him too much. I am going to purchase the roof windows myself. Any ideas on the best place to buy these and also can anyone recommend a roof window fitter to do this job. We are living in dublin, thanks for all the advise in advance

    Hi
    I have 4 large velux windows fitted, for the last few years there the best .
    The bigger the better as i have seen a few conversions with small windows fitted and they dont work.

    Fakro or Velux are the two leading brands in Ireland.

    You will need to buy them from a hardware store.

    These guys will have them, the owner Peter Cosgrave is a very hands on guy
