Planning and building regulations for Andover
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.
Lanterns on permitted development extensions are part of the extension's height limits. Adding one to an existing roof is different: over 150 mm of projection can mean a planning application.
Building regulations in Andover 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 Andover
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 Andover?
With the midsummer sun about 62.2° high at noon, roof glass in Andover gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Andover?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your district, borough or unitary council before ordering.
