Questions from Ledbury
Can I paint an aluminium lantern later?
It can be repainted with suitable systems, but it is far better to choose the right powder-coated colour at the start.
Do aluminium lanterns get cold and drip?
Thermally broken frames are designed to reduce cold bridging. Condensation can still form if a room is very humid and poorly ventilated, which is why kitchens and bathrooms need extract ventilation.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Ledbury?
With the midsummer sun about 61.4° high at noon, roof glass in Ledbury gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
