Questions from Pontypool
Is a traditional lantern harder to clean?
There are more bars, so there are more edges for dirt to collect along. Self-cleaning glass helps, but a gentle rinse once or twice a year is still worthwhile.
Can I have cresting without finials, or the other way round?
Usually yes. Ranges treat cresting and finials as options. Tell us what you want and the quote will list each item.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Pontypool?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your county or county borough council before ordering.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Pontypool?
With the midsummer sun about 61.7° high at noon, roof glass in Pontypool gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
