Planning and building regulations for Chester
England's Approved Document L caps the U-value of new or replacement rooflights in existing homes at 2.2 W/m²K, calculated with the glass horizontal.
On a permitted development extension the lantern counts towards the extension's height; on an existing roof, a rooflight projecting more than 150 mm may need planning permission.
Building regulations in Chester are checked by your local authority building control team or a registered building control approver. Replacing a rooflight in an existing home is building work. Installers registered with a competent person scheme can self-certify; otherwise building control must be involved.

Questions from Chester
Can you deliver to Scotland, Northern Ireland or the islands?
Mainland Britain is standard. The Scottish Highlands, islands and Northern Ireland are by arrangement, with delivery confirmed on your quote.
Can I collect?
Ask us when you request your quote. Collection depends on where your lantern is made.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Chester?
With the midsummer sun about 60.2° high at noon, roof glass in Chester gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Chester?
Your local authority building control team or a registered building control approver. For a lantern in a new extension it forms part of the extension's approval; replacements in existing homes have their own rules.
