Questions from Strabane
Do I need an upstand for a roof lantern?
Yes. Lanterns are designed to sit on an upstand, never directly on the roof deck.
Can I order a lantern before the upstand is built?
Yes, if you build the upstand to the lantern's stated external size. Many people order the lantern and upstand together so they match.
Can you fit a roof lantern in Strabane?
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 Strabane?
With the midsummer sun about 58.6° high at noon, roof glass in Strabane gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
