Questions from Newport (Isle of Wight)
Will a traditional lantern need planning permission?
The style does not change the planning position; size, height and location do. Listed buildings and conservation areas are the main cases where consent is more likely to be needed.
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.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Newport (Isle of Wight)?
With the midsummer sun about 62.7° high at noon, roof glass in Newport (Isle of Wight) gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Can you fit a roof lantern in Newport (Isle of Wight)?
We can quote for fitting where we have cover. Send your postcode and photos of the roof and kerb, and we will confirm before quoting.
