Questions from Falkirk
Are uPVC lanterns as good as aluminium?
They do the same job at a lower price, with bulkier frames and fewer colour and size options. For most showpiece extensions aluminium is worth the extra.
Can I get a grey uPVC lantern?
Some ranges offer foiled colours. The choice is narrower than aluminium.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Falkirk?
With the midsummer sun about 57.4° high at noon, roof glass in Falkirk gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Can you fit a roof lantern in Falkirk?
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.
