Planning and building regulations for Battersea
For homes in England, a new or replacement rooflight should achieve a U-value of 2.2 W/m²K or better in the horizontal position, under Approved Document L.
On a permitted development extension the lantern counts towards the extension's height; on an existing roof, a rooflight projecting more than 150 mm may need planning permission.
Building regulations in Battersea 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 Battersea
Can I get a grey uPVC lantern?
Some ranges offer foiled colours. The choice is narrower than aluminium.
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.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Battersea?
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.
Can you fit a roof lantern in Battersea?
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.
