Questions from Hamilton
Is a pyramid lantern more expensive than a rectangular one?
Per square metre it can cost slightly more, because every pane is a triangle and the apex needs a special joint. The difference is usually small next to the effect of size and glass choice.
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.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Hamilton?
With the midsummer sun about 57.7° high at noon, roof glass in Hamilton gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.

Yes. Delivery to Hamilton (ML3) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
