We believe that not only does the product have to be of the highest standard but also the service that we provide to our customers. Our deserved reputation as a leading supplier of rooflights ensures we can be trusted to deliver excellence every time, but don’t just take our word for it:
We are delighted with the quality of your rooflights and the service Tuscan Foundry have provided us with! We will endeavour to recommend your windows to our client at every opportunity.
I have been very satisfied with the quality of the product and the staff are always very helpful. I have used Tuscan on a number of occasions and the roof lights are always available from stock and the delivery times are very quick. I would definitely recommend Tuscan in the future.
I was satisfied with how robust the roof lights are. You can see they are built to last and I like the old style looks. I had looked at other companies products but decided to settle on Tuscan, ok they are more expensive than other products on the market, but when you see the quality you can see why. The service was prompt and courteous and I would definitely consider using the product again in the future.
Everyone who has seen the Tuscan light in our grade two Listed garage roof has been so impressed by it and how well it sits flush with the slate roofline. This is an important consideration for anyone seeking Listed Building Consent from the local council. The design and finish quality and attention to detail is immediately apparent and I would unreservedly recommend both the company and its products.
I just wanted to say thank you to all of you for your help with our windows. We much appreciated your patient advice, and for helpfully sending us a sample window, the delivery was exactly as promised and the windows are fantastic. They have transformed the attic. Well worth the wait! Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas and a peaceful 2019.

A deep dive into the history, common issues, and maintenance of cast iron rainwater goods, with a focus on traditional Scottish architecture; cast iron rainwater goods have been a staple of Scottish architecture for centuries, prized for their durability, strength, and aesthetic appeal. These qualities are particularly important in Scotland, where the weather can be harsh and unforgiving. They are a testament to the craftsmanship and ingenuity of a bygone era, adding a touch of elegance and historical significance to buildings across the country.
Cast iron’s journey in Scottish architecture began in the 18th century. Its resilience and ability to withstand the challenging Scottish climate quickly gained popularity. The relatively low production cost of cast iron made it a popular choice for residential and commercial buildings, contributing to its widespread adoption.
The 19th century marked the pinnacle of cast iron rainwater goods in Scotland. This era saw the construction of magnificent Victorian buildings adorned with elaborate cast-iron rainwater systems, showcasing decorative hoppers, rhones (the Scottish term for gutters), and leader heads (downpipes). These features served a practical purpose, channelling rainwater away from the building and enhancing the architectural beauty of the structures.
