Planning and building regulations for Chichester
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.
On a permitted development extension the lantern counts towards the extension's height; on an existing roof, a rooflight projecting more than 150 mm may need planning permission.
Building regulations in Chichester 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 Chichester
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 Chichester?
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.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Chichester?
With the midsummer sun about 62.6° high at noon, roof glass in Chichester gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
