Planning and building regulations for Inverness
Scottish building standards, including Section 6 on energy, apply here, and a building warrant is normally needed for extensions and structural alterations.
Planning in Scotland follows the Scottish permitted development order; your council confirms whether your lantern needs consent.
Building regulations in Inverness 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 Inverness
Can I collect?
Ask us when you request your quote. Collection depends on where your lantern is made.
What if the lantern arrives damaged?
Check the packaging and glass on delivery where you can, note any damage on the delivery paperwork and tell us straight away with photos. Goods remain our responsibility until they are delivered to you.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Inverness?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your council before ordering.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Inverness?
With the midsummer sun about 56.0° high at noon, roof glass in Inverness gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
