Planning and building regulations for Swansea
Wales sets its own energy standards for rooflights in the Welsh Approved Document L, so the Welsh figures apply rather than England's.
Check the Welsh permitted development rules with your council before ordering, particularly in conservation areas.
Building regulations in Swansea are checked by your local authority building control team. Replacing a rooflight in an existing home is building work in Wales too. A competent person scheme installer can self-certify; otherwise building control should be notified.

Some ranges offer electric opening versions. Ask for availability for your size.
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.
