Questions from Grimsby
Can the coating be damaged?
Yes, by abrasive cleaning, some chemicals and silicone. Follow the care instructions supplied with your lantern.
Does it work under trees?
Less well. Sap and leaf debris build up faster than daylight and rain can deal with them, so lanterns under trees need more regular rinsing.

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 Grimsby?
With the midsummer sun about 59.9° high at noon, roof glass in Grimsby gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
