Questions from Hawarden
Who makes the upstand weatherproof?
Your roofer, by dressing the roof membrane up the outside of the upstand. The lantern then sits over it.

Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your county or county borough council before ordering.
