Questions from Dalkeith
Is aluminium recyclable?
Yes, aluminium can be recycled repeatedly. Ask your local waste site about the glass and seals, which are handled separately.
Will the colour fade?
Polyester powder coatings are designed for outdoor use and hold their colour well. Coastal sites benefit from occasional washing to remove salt deposits.
Can you fit a roof lantern in Dalkeith?
We can quote for fitting where we have cover. Send your postcode and photos of the roof and kerb, and we will confirm before quoting.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Dalkeith?
With the midsummer sun about 57.5° high at noon, roof glass in Dalkeith gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
