Planning and building regulations in South Glamorgan
Rooflight energy standards in Wales come from the Welsh Approved Document L (2022), so check figures quoted for England do not get used by mistake.
Wales has its own householder permitted development rules; listed buildings and conservation areas are the usual cases needing consent.
Building regulations 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.

Bespoke roof lanterns in South Glamorgan: questions
Can I return a bespoke lantern?
No. Goods made to your specification are excluded from the 14-day cancellation right under the Consumer Contracts Regulations. Your other legal rights, for example if the lantern is faulty, are not affected.
How accurate do my measurements need to be?
Accurate to the millimetre on the outside of the kerb, measured at several points. Kerbs are rarely perfectly square, so measure both diagonals too. Our measuring guide shows how.
Do bespoke lanterns cost much more?
For simple rectangles the premium over a stock size is usually modest. Special shapes cost more because each one is engineered individually.
How quickly can I get a roof lantern in South Glamorgan?
Stock sizes are typically ready in 5–10 working days, made-to-measure in 3–4 weeks, plus delivery. Your quote gives the date for South Glamorgan.
