Fixing and buying guide

What this product is and who needs it

This is a single tile flashing for VELUX roof window installation on pitched tile roofs. You need this flashing if you are installing a VELUX roof window into an existing tiled roof or building a new roof with a window opening. The flashing sits between the window frame and the roof tiles, creating a weathertight seal that prevents rain and moisture from entering the building at the installation point. The black finish matches common roof tile colours, ensuring a neat appearance on the roofline.

Compatibility and sizing

This flashing is sized 78×118 mm and is designed for standard roof pitches with tile roofing. Confirm that your VELUX roof window model is compatible with the MK06 flashing system before purchase. The compact dimensions suit typical residential tile roof applications. Check your roof pitch and tile profile against VELUX installation guidance to ensure this flashing is the correct choice for your installation.

What is included and pre-installation checks

This product is a single tile flashing unit. Before installation, verify that you have all components of the complete flashing system required for your VELUX window model, as this flashing alone may be part of a larger assembly. Inspect the flashing for any damage in transit. Check that your roof tiles are in good condition and that the installation opening is correctly sized and positioned. Ensure you have appropriate safety equipment and access arrangements for working at height on a pitched roof.

Installation and fixing

The flashing must be installed as part of the complete VELUX roof window installation system. It should be positioned between the window frame and roof tiles to create a continuous weathertight seal. Follow VELUX installation instructions carefully, as improper installation can compromise the weatherproofing of your roof. The flashing integrates with the window frame and surrounding tiles to form a unified weather barrier. Professional installation is recommended if you are not experienced in roof work, as correct sealing is critical to prevent water damage.
