Questions from Basingstoke
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.
Can I replace polycarbonate panels with glass?
Usually not in the old frame: glass is much heavier than polycarbonate and the frame was not designed for it. Replacing the whole lantern is the safer route.

We can quote for fitting where we have cover. Send your postcode and photos of the roof and kerb, and we will confirm before quoting.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Basingstoke?
With the midsummer sun about 62.2° high at noon, roof glass in Basingstoke gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
