Planning and building regulations for Shepherds Bush
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 Shepherds Bush 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 Shepherds Bush
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.
Will a new lantern be warmer?
A modern double glazed lantern with a thermally broken frame loses far less heat than polycarbonate.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Shepherds Bush?
Your local authority building control team or a registered building control approver. For a lantern in a new extension it forms part of the extension's approval; replacements in existing homes have their own rules.
