Choosing flat rooflights in the West Midlands

A single near-flat pane on an upstand: minimal, low and discreet.

Across the West Midlands, the shortest day brings around 7h 39m of daylight and the midsummer sun reaches about 60.9° at noon. A lantern collects light from the bright overhead sky all year, and the right glass keeps the long summer days comfortable.

  • Very low profile from outside
  • Single glazed unit with a slight fall
  • Usually cheaper than a lantern
  • Minimal, frameless-looking from inside

Planning and building regulations in the West Midlands

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 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.
