Planning and building regulations in Greater London

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.

Black roof lanterns in Greater London: questions

Does black get hotter?

The frame surface does, but the effect on the room is small next to the choice of glass.

Will black fade?

Quality powder coatings are designed for UK weather. Matt finishes may show a slight sheen change over many years.

Is a black lantern too dark inside?

The frame is a small part of what you see; the glass dominates. Black frames inside create a graphic grid that many people like. If you want a softer look, choose white inside.

Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Greater London?

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.
