Rectangular roof lanterns for Colwyn Bay homes
The classic double-hipped lantern: a ridge, four sloping sides and the most size choice.

Planning and building regulations for Colwyn Bay
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 Colwyn Bay 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.

Questions from Colwyn Bay
Can a rectangular lantern be made to an exact size?
Yes. Made-to-measure lanterns are built to the external kerb size you give us, usually in 10 mm steps within the range's limits. Made-to-measure takes longer than a stock size and cannot be cancelled once ordered, so measure twice.
Does a longer lantern need extra support?
Long lanterns use intermediate rafters inside the lantern itself. The roof structure around the opening must be designed to carry the lantern's weight; your builder or engineer sizes the trimmers.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Colwyn Bay?
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 Colwyn Bay?
With the midsummer sun about 60.1° high at noon, roof glass in Colwyn Bay gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
