Questions from Livingston
Do you need to survey before fitting?
For a lantern on a ready upstand, clear photos and measurements are often enough. Replacements and new openings need a survey.
Who deals with building control?
We will explain on your quote how building regulations will be met for your job and who is responsible for any notification.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Livingston?
With the midsummer sun about 57.5° high at noon, roof glass in Livingston gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
