Replacement roof lanterns for Galashiels homes
Swap a tired, leaking or polycarbonate lantern for modern double glazing.
In midsummer the noon sun stands about 57.8° high over Galashiels, so roof glazing gets the full strength of it. That is why solar-control glass is worth considering on larger lanterns here.

Questions from Galashiels
Will a new lantern be warmer?
A modern double glazed lantern with a thermally broken frame loses far less heat than polycarbonate.

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.
