Wales has its own householder permitted development rules; listed buildings and conservation areas are the usual cases needing consent.
Building regulations in Swansea are checked by your local authority building control team. Replacing a rooflight in an existing home is building work in Wales too. A competent person scheme installer can self-certify; otherwise building control should be notified.
