Questions from Chorley
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.
Does black get hotter?
The frame surface does, but the effect on the room is small next to the choice of glass.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Chorley?
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.
Can you fit a roof lantern in Chorley?
