Planning and building regulations in Tyne and Wear

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 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.

Bespoke roof lanterns in Tyne and Wear: questions

Will I see a drawing before it is made?

For made-to-measure and special shapes, yes: the order is based on a drawing you approve, so the size you check is the size that gets made.

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 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 I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Tyne and Wear?

Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your district, borough or unitary council before ordering.
