Traditional roof lanterns for Rugby homes
Victorian-style detailing with ridge cresting and finials for period homes.
In midsummer the noon sun stands about 61.1° high over Rugby, so roof glazing gets the full strength of it. That is why solar-control glass is worth considering on larger lanterns here.
- Classic white or heritage colours
- Decorative ridge cresting and finials
- Specification sheets for consent applications

Planning and building regulations for Rugby
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.
Planning-wise, a lantern on a new extension is judged as part of that extension, while one added to an existing roof can fall outside permitted development if it stands more than 150 mm proud.
Building regulations in Rugby 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 Rugby
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 you make timber traditional lanterns?
Our range is aluminium and uPVC. Aluminium can be powder-coated in heritage colours that suit timber windows and doors.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Rugby?
Yes. Delivery to Rugby (CV21) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Rugby?
With the midsummer sun about 61.1° high at noon, roof glass in Rugby gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
