Questions from Gorseinon
How is a large lantern delivered?
On pallets, usually with the frame and glass packed separately. The heaviest single item is normally a glass unit, which needs two or more people to lift safely.
Do large lanterns overheat a room?
A large area of south-facing glass can make a room warm on sunny days. Solar-control glass, an opening vent and good background ventilation all help. Our guide on overheating explains the options.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Gorseinon?
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.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Gorseinon?
Yes. Delivery to Gorseinon (SA4) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
