Replacement roof lanterns for Nottingham homes
Swap a tired, leaking or polycarbonate lantern for modern double glazing.

- Replace old polycarbonate with glass
- Often a one-day swap on a sound kerb

Planning and building regulations for Nottingham
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.
On a permitted development extension the lantern counts towards the extension's height; on an existing roof, a rooflight projecting more than 150 mm may need planning permission.
Building regulations in Nottingham 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 Nottingham
Will a new lantern be warmer?
A modern double glazed lantern with a thermally broken frame loses far less heat than polycarbonate.
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.
Can you fit a roof lantern in Nottingham?
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 Nottingham?
With the midsummer sun about 60.5° high at noon, roof glass in Nottingham gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
