Planning and building regulations for Croydon
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 Croydon 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 Croydon
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.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Croydon?
Your local authority building control team or a registered building control approver. For a lantern in a new extension it forms part of the extension's approval; replacements in existing homes have their own rules.
