Planning and building regulations for Pimlico
England's Approved Document L caps the U-value of new or replacement rooflights in existing homes at 2.2 W/m²K, calculated with the glass horizontal.
Planning-wise, a lantern on a new extension is judged as part of that extension, while one added to an existing roof can fall outside permitted development if it stands more than 150 mm proud.
Building regulations in Pimlico are checked by your local authority building control team or a registered building control approver. Replacing a rooflight in an existing home is building work. Installers registered with a competent person scheme can self-certify; otherwise building control must be involved.

Questions from Pimlico
Can the inside be a different grey?
Yes. Any combination is possible on most aluminium ranges; non-stock colours carry a small surcharge.
Does anthracite show dirt?
Less than white. Dust and pollen are more visible on dark gloss finishes, which is why most grey lanterns use a matt or textured finish.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Pimlico?
With the midsummer sun about 62.0° high at noon, roof glass in Pimlico gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Pimlico?
Yes. Delivery to Pimlico (SW1) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
