Questions from Newtownabbey
Will a square lantern leak at the top?
It should not when it is correctly installed and maintained. The apex is factory-designed to shed water; leaks usually come from the upstand or roof membrane rather than the lantern itself, which is why the upstand detail matters.
Can I have an opening vent in a pyramid lantern?
Some ranges can fit a vent in one of the triangular panes, others cannot. We will tell you on the quote whether your chosen range allows it.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Newtownabbey?
Yes. Delivery to Newtownabbey (BT36) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Newtownabbey?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your district council before ordering.
