Questions from Elgin
Is aluminium recyclable?
Yes, aluminium can be recycled repeatedly. Ask your local waste site about the glass and seals, which are handled separately.
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.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Elgin?
Yes. Delivery to Elgin (IV30) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Elgin?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your council before ordering.
