Planning and building regulations for Luton
For homes in England, a new or replacement rooflight should achieve a U-value of 2.2 W/m²K or better in the horizontal position, under Approved Document L.
Planning-wise, a lantern on a new extension is judged as part of that extension, while one added to an existing roof can fall outside permitted development if it stands more than 150 mm proud.
Building regulations in Luton 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.

Questions from Luton
How long does replacement take on site?
For a like-for-like swap on a sound kerb, often a day. Kerb or roof repairs add time.
My old lantern leaks. Is it the lantern or the roof?
Often the roof or kerb detailing. A survey or close inspection will tell. If the lantern is the problem, replacing it is usually better value than repairing old polycarbonate.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Luton?
With the midsummer sun about 61.6° high at noon, roof glass in Luton gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Luton?
Yes. Delivery to Luton (LU1) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
