Questions from Dunfermline
Do flat rooflights leak?
They should not, provided they are installed on a properly flashed upstand with the right fall and the seals are maintained.
Can I walk on a flat rooflight?
Only if it is a walk-on rooflight designed for foot traffic. Standard rooflights are not designed to be walked on.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Dunfermline?
With the midsummer sun about 57.4° high at noon, roof glass in Dunfermline gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Dunfermline?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your council before ordering.
