Planning and building regulations for Dundee
In Scotland, energy standards come from Section 6 of the domestic Technical Handbook, and most extensions need a building warrant before work starts.
Your council will confirm whether your lantern is permitted development under Scotland's rules, particularly for listed buildings.
Building regulations in Dundee are checked by your local authority building standards (verifier) service. Some like-for-like replacement work does not need a building warrant but must still meet the building standards. Your council's building standards service can confirm.

Questions from Dundee
Are small lanterns available quickly?
Standard small sizes are often available from stock. Lead times are confirmed on your quote.
Can I fit a small lantern myself?
Small lanterns are within the reach of a competent builder or roofer. The critical parts are a level, square, weatherproof upstand and the manufacturer's fixing instructions. In existing homes, replacement rooflights are building work that may need building control involvement.
Can you fit a roof lantern in Dundee?
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 Dundee?
With the midsummer sun about 57.0° high at noon, roof glass in Dundee gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
