Planning and building regulations for Chiswick
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 Chiswick 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 Chiswick
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.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Chiswick?
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.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Chiswick?
With the midsummer sun about 61.9° high at noon, roof glass in Chiswick gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
