Questions from Paisley
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.
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.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Paisley?
With the midsummer sun about 57.6° high at noon, roof glass in Paisley gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Paisley?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your council before ordering.
