Questions from Flint
Can I have a contemporary lantern in white?
Yes, though most buyers choose grey or black because the slimmer frame is the point and dark frames disappear against the sky.
Is a contemporary lantern the same as a flat rooflight?
No. A contemporary lantern still has sloping glass and a ridge or apex; it simply has slimmer frames and fewer bars. A flat rooflight is a single, nearly flat pane of glass on an upstand.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Flint?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your county or county borough council before ordering.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Flint?
With the midsummer sun about 60.2° high at noon, roof glass in Flint gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
