Planning and building regulations for Oldham
In England, building regulations energy guidance sets a limiting U-value of 2.2 W/m²K for new and replacement rooflights in existing homes, measured horizontally.
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 Oldham 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 Oldham
Can I have triple glazing with solar control?
Yes. Triple units usually include a solar-control or neutral coating.
Will triple glazing stop rain noise?
It reduces it noticeably. Laminated glass reduces it further.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Oldham?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your district, borough or unitary council before ordering.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Oldham?
With the midsummer sun about 59.9° high at noon, roof glass in Oldham gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
